Ariel B. Glickman

Ariel has further represented clients related to government investigations and inquiries conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and has prepared witnesses for both grand jury and trial testimony.

Maintaining a robust and diverse pro bono docket, Ariel recently secured a fraud waiver for clients who were in removal proceedings to be deported, thereby providing a path for their citizenship. She obtained a civil protection order on behalf of a minor, enabling the minor to avoid testifying and confronting her abuser at trial; and negotiated an agreement between a father and mother as guardian ad litem for their child, resulting in the avoidance of a trial for the child. She is currently representing a client related to the violation of his civil rights under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, stemming from assault and battery on his person.

Prior to joining Perkins Coie, Ariel clerked for the Hon. Michael S. Nachmanoff of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, where she assisted with high-stakes litigation by resolving a series of discovery motions and cross-motions for summary judgment involving nuanced legal issues. She is also a former Ethics in Excellence & Journalism legal fellow for the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, where she represented the interests of journalists, drafting amicus curiae briefs related to the First Amendment and the CDA.

While at The George Washington University Law School, Ariel served as a legal privacy intern for the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, conducting an audit of a federal agency privacy and security program, and helped develop metrics for the success of the program. She also served as an assistant to Professor Daniel J. Solove, for whom she conducted research relating to international, education, and media privacy.
