About Lashawn
Biography
Raised in Georgia, I graduated from Emory University in 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts degree, and then Howard University School of Law in 2002 with a Juris Doctorate. I was admitted to practice in both state and federal courts in Arizona in 2002. I spent the first seven years of my practice as an associate at Quarles & Brady where I handled bankruptcy and creditors' rights, probate litigation, and corporate law, and then branched out of my own as a solo practitioner in 2009.

I contacted LaShawn Jenkins last month to handle a credit card lawsuit for my elderly mom who is 90 years old.
