Jackson K. Gardner

I majored in philosophy at the University of Colorado Boulder, where a class on the philosophy of law introduced me to Clarence Darrow. His line, “inside every attorney is the wreck of a poet,” stuck with me and sparked my decision to pursue law. Trial work energizes me—it combines storytelling, strategy, and the human connection that comes from guiding clients through difficult moments. I value trust, hard work, and honest collaboration—principles that guide both my practice and how I approach life outside the courtroom.
