Co-founder of Fullerton Beck Katrine Beck concentrates on trial work on business disputes, municipal law cases, and general liability claims. She is equally adept in the courtroom, arbitration, and mediation processes, and she skillfully manages all stages of litigation in state and federal courts. Individuals, small enterprises, corporations both public and private, property managers, co-ops and condominium boards, and insurance companies are among her clientele.
Defending high-exposure matters involving negligence, motor vehicle accidents, premises liability claims, and construction accident claims under New York Labor Law are all included in Katrine’s general liability practice. Because Katrine holds an OSHA-10 certification, she has extensive understanding of topics pertaining to construction, AIA contracts, insurance procurement, and indemnification requirements.
Katrine’s practice in commercial litigation benefits from her extensive and comprehensive expertise, which she uses to efficiently assist clients of all kinds, from big, established businesses to tiny, startup ventures. In addition to preparing and analyzing contracts, bids, and other papers, Katrine helps newly created firms with high litigation risk manage their risk by offering strong legal defense in a variety of legal contexts in the event that litigation occurs. She implements strategic litigation plans within constrained or accelerated schedules and budgets, and she offers creative legal solutions to developers, property managers, and cooperative boards. Her client-focused, pragmatic approach helps them steer clear of drawn-out disagreements that may often get in the way of properly managing their businesses.
In her former role as an Assistant Corporation Counsel in the Bronx Tort Division of the New York City Law Department, Katrine represented the city and its departments, such as the Corrections, Transportation, and Sanitation departments, as well as the New York Police Department, in jury trials. Her attitude to litigation and her capacity to recognize important problems in cases promptly have been impacted by this experience.
Katrine has been listed as a New York Metro Super Lawyer since 2016. She has also been recognized as one of the prestigious Crain’s New York Business “Notable Women in Law” in 2021 and 2022, a 2020 recipient of the Westchester County Business Journal (WCBJ) C-Suite Awards, and a coveted list of “40 under 40” Rising Stars from the Business Council of Westchester.
The New York State Bar Association granted Katrine the esteemed Ruth Bader Ginsburg Vanguard Award in 2021 in recognition of her outstanding work addressing and bringing attention to problems of fairness, diversity, and inclusion. The company is also listed among the WCBJ Powerful Women.
