Tricia Maier
\nChief Division Counsel
\nChicago Field Office<\/p>\n
I am the first female chief division counsel for FBI Chicago. Previously, I was associate division counsel and manager \u00a0the asset forfeiture program. As a special agent, I worked organized crime, public corruption, white-collar, criminal enterprise, and violent crime. I have also served on the Evidence Response Team.<\/p>\n
Share the thing you\u2019re most proud of from your FBI career.<\/p>\n
The FBI has allowed me to do many exciting and impactful things in my career. When I started in 1997, I was typing documents as part of the steno pool and going to law school at night. Over the years, I worked my way up to intelligence research specialist, then special agent, taking on a number of collateral duties in the process.<\/p>\n
Although I enjoyed every squad, position, and opportunity, I am most proud of my work as associate division counsel and now chief division counsel and being a part of the FBI legal community. I have the privilege of participating and weighing in on all important cases and working with talented employees and law enforcement partners.<\/p>\n
In the very beginning of my career, while I was a full-time FBI employee and attending the John Marshall Law School at night, there were many FBI and U.S. Attorney Office employees who supported me during a very hectic time in my life. In particular, I will never forget everyone who encouraged me while I was working on my first high-profile organized crime trial and studying for the Illinois bar exam at the same time. It was well worth all the hours I studied to achieve my goal of completing law school and passing the bar.<\/p>\n
Throughout my career, the support and encouragement I have received from my family and the FBI has never wavered and has helped make me who I am today. Now it\u2019s my turn to pay it forward to my family, the FBI, and to the community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
