Jessica Zorn
AttorneyBrief Biography
Jessica Zorn is an Associate Attorney at Farris Riley Injury Law, focusing on appellate advocacy, personal injury, and wrongful death cases — and she brings a perspective few attorneys can claim: she was a personal injury claimant herself before she was ever licensed to practice law.
Jessica earned her B.A. in Economics and Philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh and her J.D. from the University of Alabama School of Law, where she competed nationally in moot court appellate oral argument competitions. Originally from Michigan and raised near Philadelphia, she became a Birmingham resident and has built her career at Farris Riley Injury Law ever since. She has extensive litigation and jury trial experience in state and federal courts, as well as advocacy experience in several appellate courts.
