About Elizabeth G.
Elizabeth G. Federowicz built a clear academic foundation before entering the practice of law. She earned a B.A. from Princeton University in 2002 and later completed her J.D. at UCLA School of Law in 2013. Those credentials framed a trajectory that brought her into federal and state courts in California.
Her legal career has included work at Fenwick & West LLP. At Fenwick she took on matters that required both trial and appellate advocacy. She is admitted to practice in California and holds federal admissions in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Those admissions allow her to represent clients across multiple levels of the judiciary.
Federowicz’s practice has involved representation in proceedings before state courts, district courts and the Ninth Circuit. She has handled litigation matters that require attention to procedural detail and courtroom presentation. Colleagues describe her style as methodical and clear; she prepares records, drafts briefs and presents arguments in settings that range from hearings to appellate panels.
Her time at Fenwick placed her in a firm environment that regularly addresses disputes with national implications. She has worked alongside litigators on complex filings and coordinated across teams when cases crossed jurisdictions. That experience has required familiarity with federal practice rules and the mechanics of appellate briefing in the Ninth Circuit.
Clients and peers have turned to Federowicz for litigation tasks that demand steady handling of documentation, deadlines and courtroom advocacy. She has navigated injunction hearings, motion practice and the preparation of appellate records. Her courtroom work draws on both trial preparation and the more condensed, strategic demands of appeals.
Today she continues to practice at Fenwick & West LLP. She represents clients in California state and federal courts and appears in federal appellate proceedings in the Ninth Circuit as circumstances require. Her current practice includes litigation and appellate representation in those jurisdictions.
