Jessica Beardsley
About
Jessica attended college with the intention of becoming a marriage and family counselor. As she attended various classes, including some prelaw classes, she decided to attend law school so she could take a more active role in helping people when they are at their most vulnerable.
During law school, she volunteered with the Domestic Violence Project and joined the Domestic Violence Clinic. After graduation, she was awarded the Lisa and Kolin Pimental Award for Excellence in the Study of Domestic Violence Law. She was also awarded the Mary Philbrook award in September 2018.
After law school, she clerked for the Hon. David Ragonese in the Camden County Superior Court. Even though she clerked in the Criminal Division, she knew that she wanted to continue her focus on family law in the next phase of her career.
Jessica has been practicing as an associate attorney in family law since September 2019 and has focused on developing connections with her clients to help them through what may be the most emotional time in their life.
She is a member and active participant in the Burlington County and Camden County Bar Associations and she serves clients in Atlantic County, Burlington County, Camden County, Cumberland County, Gloucester County, Mercer County, Monmouth County, and Salem County.
