About Katie L.
Katie L. Raisch is an attorney at Carney and Appleby. She works on behalf of the firm’s clients from the office listed for the firm. Her day-to-day work involves advising clients, managing case files and appearing in court when matters require in-person advocacy.
Raisch completed the education required to practice law and gained admission to the bar before beginning her professional career. Early on she focused on learning the practical skills that carry a case forward: drafting pleadings, preparing discovery, and building trial-ready records. She has worked on matters that require careful factual development and clear legal argument.
Over the course of her practice she has handled a mix of negotiated resolutions and contested proceedings. Those experiences have shaped how she approaches problem solving. She tends to prioritize clear communication with clients and aims to set realistic expectations about timing and outcomes. Colleagues and clients have relied on her to keep complex files organized and to move cases along efficiently.
Raisch’s courtroom experience includes hearings, motion practice and trials. She has experience preparing witnesses and presenting evidence. Outside the courtroom she has drafted contracts, responses and legal memoranda. That combination of litigation and transactional work informs how she advises clients about risks and potential next steps.
Within the firm she collaborates with other attorneys on case strategy and client service. That teamwork extends to paralegals and support staff who manage the logistics of discovery and filing. She also interacts with experts and opposing counsel to narrow issues where possible and to preserve advantages when litigation is necessary.
Professional development has been a steady part of her career. She keeps current on changes in the law relevant to the firm’s practice and regularly reviews appellate decisions and statutory updates. That ongoing study helps her translate legal developments into practical next steps for clients.
Raisch lives and practices where Carney and Appleby maintains its office. Her current practice centers on representing the firm’s clients in matters that require both litigation skill and practical legal counsel.
