also known as Jessica R. Clay, Jessica Clay
I am a life-long resident of Northern Virginia. I was born and raised in Fairfax County. I spent much of my summers with my grandparents on their dairy farm in Gainesville, Virginia. In 1998, I moved to The Town of Haymarket with my husband and our two children.
I have worked in the legal field for the last 22 years. After taking a job as a receptionist with a law firm in Fairfax, Virginia, I decided to devote my life to the field of law. I diligently worked my way up to a managing paralegal. However, I knew I could go farther. While juggling a family of 4 and a full time career, I went back to school. I started at Northern Virginia Community College. Then, I attended George Mason University where I earned a Bachelors degree in the field of Criminology. Finally, I earned a Juris Doctor from the University of Baltimore.
It has been a long and hard journey to finally becoming an attorney. I started at the bottom, with nothing more than a high school diploma and a desire to make a difference. I understand hard work, determination and the American dream. Nothing was handed to me, and along the way I learned to take nothing for granted.

I've needed Jessica's help twice; once for a criminal matter and the other for bankruptcy. Both times Jessica took great care of me during two of the scariest moments of my life. On the criminal matter, by following her advice and also because of reputation/relationship with the Commonwealth DA, my m...

Jessica recently quickly completed several legal documents pertaining to wills and estates. We were under fierce time constraints and Jessica was able to meet them, in a professional manner and was very responsive and communicative.

Jessica clay represented me in a legal matter. She didn’t explain my options and I felt she was aloof regarding my well being. She avoided phone calls and pressured me into last minute choices. I felt cornered and without options. Stuck between a rock and a hard place.
