Jessica A. Riley Profiled by Dallas Association of Young Lawyers as "One to Watch"
Hinshaw attorney Jessica A. Riley was featured recently by the Dallas Association of Young Lawyers (DAYL) in its "Ones to Watch" series. The article discusses Riley's career path, her personal and professional passions, and her active participation in DAYL.
The article describes how Riley has been "instrumental" in leading the STEER Committee, a hybrid mentorship program focused on cultivating relationships and providing substantive and practical legal advice to newly licensed Texas attorneys. The profile also describes how she gives back to her community through pro bono work, including time dedicated to the ABA Free Legal Answers program, where she lessens the fear of the legal process by providing anonymous legal advice to basic civil law questions.
The profile notes that Riley – who helped open Hinshaw's Dallas office in March – represents clients on a wide variety of matters related to financial services litigation as well as enforcement and regulatory compliance. She represents clients in both state and federal litigation, defending them against claims concerning ad valorem taxes, violations of state statutes, wrongful foreclosures, consumer fraud claims, and debt collection statutes.
Last, but not least, the Ones to Watch profile shares that Riley is also a proud owner of an 11-month-old Bernedoodle, Hudson, whom she enjoys taking on daily jaunts through SMU and the Park Cities.
