Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani welcomes Nancy K. Canter as a Partner in the firm’s Sacramento office. She strengthens the Commercial Litigation practice, deepening the firm’s bench in Northern California.
Canter is an experienced litigator and seasoned advisor, leveraging her extensive background at the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C., to guide clients through complex regulatory challenges, administrative law matters, constitutional claims, and all aspects of commercial contract disputes and civil litigation. She brings extensive experience in both employment-based and family-based immigration matters, as well as workplace compliance. Her practice includes advising clients on government investigations related to U.S. immigration law, including worksite enforcement actions and raids, compliance audits, H-1B site visits, civil denaturalization, and responses to administrative and judicial warrants.
While at the Department of Justice, she managed litigation strategy for complex and high-profile matters, serving as lead counsel in numerous cases, including challenges to agency regulations, policies under the Administrative Procedure Act, constitutional challenges to federal statutes, class actions, contract disputes, and labor and employment matters.
“I’ve always been impressed by the collegial nature of GRSM attorneys I’ve worked with in the past, and GRSM’s national footprint seemed like an ideal place given my experience litigating in federal district courts across the country,” shared Canter.
She is admitted to practice in California, as well as in federal district and appellate courts across the country, and the U.S. Supreme Court. She earned her law degree from The Ohio State University and her undergraduate degree from Amherst College.
