About Whitney S
Whitney S Graham studied English at Bryn Mawr College and stayed in the humanities before turning to law. She earned her J.D. from Temple University Beasley School of Law in 2011. Those years at Temple set the stage for a steady rise at a single firm where she has spent her career.
Graham joined Graham & Mauer, P.C. as an associate in 2011. She moved into partnership in 2019. The timeline is simple but telling. She built courtroom experience, client contact, and case management responsibilities over several years. Colleagues describe her as methodical in preparing a file and direct in court. She has served on the board of the Green Valleys Watershed Association since 2013, a role that has kept her connected to community issues outside the office.
She is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and is authorized to appear before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. She also has admission to the bar of the U.S. Supreme Court. Those admissions reflect work at both state and federal levels. Practicing across jurisdictions has required shifting strategies depending on whether a matter is in state court, a federal district, or an appellate panel.
Graham is a member of several professional organizations. She belongs to the Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association and the Pennsylvania Association for Justice. She also maintains memberships in the Chester County Bar Association and the Lancaster County Bar Association, the latter beginning in 2023. Her peers have recognized her as a Rising Star by Super Lawyers, an honor typically given to lawyers under a specific age or with a limited number of years in practice.
Her cases have involved contested hearings and jury trials as well as negotiated resolutions. In the office she handles pleadings, discovery strategy, and trial preparation. Outside court she has taken part in civic board work and local bar association activities. At Graham & Mauer, P.C., Graham practices civil litigation and represents clients in trial and appellate matters. She focuses her current practice on civil litigation at Graham & Mauer, P.C.
