Jenna Susko

Associate Attorney

I am originally from Ohio and graduated from The Ohio State University, with a major in Marketing and a minor in Political Science.  Subsequently, I moved up to Minnesota to work for Best Buy.  After working there for 2 years, I decided that it was time to pursue my legal career – something I had been envisioning since childhood.  I graduated from William Mitchell in 2014.  After law school, I worked for Thomson Reuters until I got the opportunity to practice law as an associate for Elizabeth Porter.  I have been practicing for almost three years and thoroughly enjoy working in the family law field.  I am really drawn to the personal dynamics involved in the practice of family law. I am also a huge animal lover, with three cats and three chickens at home.  I enjoy working out and fixing things, as well as traveling to new places around the globe and trying new cuisines.
