Ms. Warner brings more than a decade of experience in litigation and negotiation systems analysis, complex project management and electronic data and document management and discovery.  She has extensive experience in designing and developing document and information databases that streamline and facilitate the efficient management of complex litigation and counseling matters.  She has directed and supervised e-discovery efforts in large class actions, complex civil litigation, and multi-jurisdictional criminal investigations.  Ms. Warner's technical background complements her practice which focuses on labor and employee benefits negotiations.  

For the past three years, Ms. Warner has individually reviewed and analyzed more than one hundred health and welfare contracts for a major government defense contractor.  Building off of these efforts, she developed a system that was used to analyze the collective health and welfare contract reviews of the legal team.  This analytical tool proved instrumental in developing a base model health and welfare benefits contract – of which she was one of the authors. Ms. Warner also participated in the development of digital questionnaires that are used to gather responses to requests for proposals from health and welfare benefit vendors.  These responses are used to build model health and welfare benefits contracts that are tailored to each vendor and serve as the baseline model contract for negotiation purposes.  

For the past two years, Ms. Warner has worked on developing additional tools to streamline model health and welfare benefits contract negotiations, coordinated team negotiation efforts, and served as a lead negotiator.  Most recently, she has focused on analyzing retiree health benefit structures and identifying cost savings opportunities.  Ms. Warner was part of a team that undertook the review and analysis of a client’s universe of retiree health plans and collective bargaining agreements as part of an overall effort to identify areas of potential cost savings for various non-collectively and collectively bargained populations. 

Ms. Warner is also the Project Coordinator for a multi-team effort that is currently performing a comprehensive evaluation of a client's retiree health care benefit structure to identify potential costs savings regarding its collectively bargained retiree population.  She is also a part of that multi-team effort as a member of the teams charged with analyzing retiree health spend data, identifying specific cost issues, devising creative cost savings proposals, and developing implementation and bargaining strategies to effect cost savings solutions. Ms. Warner also has experience in conducting due diligence as it relates to employee benefits and labor law compliance.
