Sofia engages in an expansive array of litigation matters, including securities litigation, shareholder suits, insurance disputes, government investigations, white-collar crime, and complex commercial litigation in both state and federal courts. She also has ample experience in class action defense, particularly in areas such as consumer fraud, data privacy, data breach, marketing, technology, and compliance issues. Sofia has a proven record of defending corporate clients against class actions at all stages of litigation, consistently achieving successful settlements for her clients. Her strategic approach and deep understanding of the law have made her a trusted advisor in high-stakes legal battles.

In addition to her litigation practice, Sofia is dedicated to pro bono work. She provides legal representation to asylum seekers and survivors of human trafficking, focusing on criminal matters and post-conviction relief. Sofia collaborates with survivor-led coalitions and has contributed to legislative efforts, including assisting in drafting bills and testifying before the Massachusetts’s Joint Committee on the Judiciary in favor of these bills.

Sofia graduated first in her class from New England Law, where she served as the Online Editor of the New England Law Review. Earlier, while earning her Master of Legal Studies degree, she interned at the Pima County Public Defender’s Office and served as a Congressional Intern to Congressman Raul M. Grijalva. In 2020, Sofia was a Summer Associate at Mintz, where she worked on various litigation matters.

During her law school years, Sofia gained invaluable experience as a judicial intern for the Honorable Scott L. Kafker of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court and the Honorable Page Kelley, now Chief Magistrate Judge of the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts. She also held several legal internships, including positions at the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office, where she assisted with discovery requests, drafted motions, and appeared in civil and criminal proceedings under the supervision of senior attorneys. At Kids in Need of Legal Defense (KIND), Sofia supported the representation of unaccompanied migrant children. Her experience also includes legal internships in the White Collar Division of the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office and the Volunteer Lawyers Project.

Sofia’s commitment to her clients, combined with her broad legal expertise and tactical approach, makes her a formidable advocate in the legal arena.
