2013–21: Insurance lawyer
Halligan graduated the University of Miami School of Law in 2013. She was admitted to the Florida Bar in 2014.

Halligan is a Fort Lauderdale, Florida insurance lawyer. She handles residential and commercial insurance claims.

Halligan was second chair to another lawyer defending an insurance company at a two-day trial against three Miami homeowners who had suffered damaged roofs. In that case, a judge would not award her attorneys fees because he ruled that her team did not act "in good faith."

2022–present: lawyer for Donald Trump
Halligan has represented former US president Donald Trump since 2022. As of August 2022, she had never handled a federal case. She was at Mar-a-Lago during the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago in August 2022, quickly became involved in Trump's lawsuit in October 2022 against CNN for allegedly comparing Trump to Hitler, and has been involved in his defense against the federal government in the classified documents case.

Halligan is the local counsel for the case spawned by the FBI’s execution of a search warrant at Trump's home at Mar-a-Lago, which Halligan said came as a "huge surprise," in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, and filed the Motions to Appear Pro Hac Vice for Evan Corcoran and James Trusty, initially on August 22, 2022. She was one of the few lawyers working for Trump who was on site during the FBI search. She said Trump's subsequent indictment goes "for the jugular".

Trump's Save America PAC paid Halligan $212,000 from June 2022 to June 2023.
