Jennifer Schooley is thankful for being chosen by her legal peers again for inclusion in the Legal Elite List by Virginia Business in the Taxes/Estates/Trusts category for 2023. This is Jennifer’s seventh consecutive year as a Legal Elite. 2023 has proven to be a year of growth and progressive change for Jennifer and the firm.

In January, Jennifer and the Schooley Law Firm Team took on the large overhaul of purchasing and renovating a 1960s mid-century modern building to accommodate the growing firm. In June, she spoke before the Greater Richmond SCAN (Stop Child Abuse Now) Board of Directors on the topics of planned charitable giving and estate planning.

Jennifer Schooley also welcomed two new lawyers to the firm this year. Associate attorney, Ryan Glaser, joined in March, and associate attorney (bar pending), Sydney Albrecht, joined in September.

Jennifer continues to enjoy her time as a Member of The American College of Trust and Estate Counsel (ACTEC) since 2020. ACTEC is an international organization of approximately 2,500 lawyers peer-elected to membership by demonstrating the highest level of integrity, commitment to the profession, competence, and expertise in the preparation of wills and trusts, estate planning, probate, trust administration, and related practice areas. Thus, Jennifer has spent time attending ACTEC meetings at the 2023 Annual Meeting (New Orleans, LA) in March, the 2023 Southeastern Annual Meeting (Hot Springs, WV) in September, and is looking forward to the 2023 Fall National Meeting this October in Louisville, KY. If you will be attending in October, contact Jennifer to connect.

In addition to her stellar ACTEC attendance, Jennifer currently serves on the Family Law Task Force, the State Laws Committee, and the Practice Committee.
