Spencer Fane LLP is pleased to welcome Juliet Hernandez to the firm’s Houston office as an associate in the Litigation and Dispute Resolution Practice Group.
Juliet represents individual and corporate clients – including Fortune 500 insurance companies – navigating a wide variety of litigation matters with a focus on insurance defense.
Working from case inception through resolution, Juliet provides strategic counsel rooted in comprehensive research and experience defending markedly complex and high-exposure claims. Her diverse track record of casework includes motor vehicle accidents, premises liability claims, and property disputes, with additional experience in real estate law and regulations.
“We are excited to welcome another talented litigation associate with a unique perspective, diverse skill set, and strong cultural alignment,” said Brian Zimmerman, office managing partner for Spencer Fane in Houston. “Juliet’s experience working with large insurance carriers and other corporations will be a fantastic asset to our high-performing, collaborative insurance litigation practice, and her former cross-industry legal work will help her continue to shape a holistic, wide-reaching practice.”
Juliet completed her bachelor’s degree at the University of North Texas before earning her Juris Doctor from Baylor University School of Law.
While in law school, Juliet completed multiple clerkships and internships, including at the Harris County (Texas) District Attorney’s Office; for a private law firm and popular Waco, Texas, retail complex; and as a supervised legal practitioner for Undikumbukire (“Remember Me”) Project Zambia, a human rights organization providing free legal services to children experiencing conflict across Zambia.
