Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck is pleased to announce that Sarah Mercer, a shareholder in its Denver office, was named to Law Week Colorado’s 2021 Top Women Lawyers list. According to the publication, this year’s top women represent a wide range of professional backgrounds, from civil litigation to the public sector and diversity, equity and inclusion consulting.
Mercer, a member of the firm’s Government Relations Department, ensures clients overcome challenging and entrenched legal issues by guiding them through the complex political landscape. She combines her litigation background with her experience navigating state and local government to develop creative political and administrative solutions for complicated legal issues. She’s a connector drawing on her close ties with elected officials and bureaucratic staff at all levels of local and state government to form connections and bridge relationships among diverse stakeholders. No stranger to high-profile policy matters, Mercer is at the forefront of some of the hottest regional and national issues—the Paycheck Protection Program, campaign finance, ballot initiatives, gaming and sports betting to name a few.
In its profile of Mercer, Law Week Colorado highlighted her work aiding clients with the Paycheck Protection Program as well as challenging Gov. Jared Polis’ ballot measure executive order.
