Lynette A. Whitfield

Before starting her solo practice in Rockville, Maryland, Ms. Whitfield worked as an associate at the law firm of Passman & Kaplan, P.C., where she represented federal sector employees with a variety of labor and employment law issues. Since starting her practice, Ms. Whitfield has expanded her areas of practice to include family, consumer, elder law, education, employment, workers compensation, and general civil litigation.

Ms. Whitfield's interest in the practice of law stems from her interest in social justice issues and her sincere desire to serve underrepresented communities. To that end, Ms. Whitfield donates a large percentage of her time to volunteering in her community. Ms. Whitfield is currently a volunteer attorney with the Montgomery County, Maryland Bar Foundation and the Women's Law Center of Maryland's Employment Law Hotline. Ms. Whitfield is also a community volunteer member of the Rockville Zoning Ordinance Review Committee.
