Melissa
Litigation Paralegal - Personal Injury

Originally from Virginia Beach, Melissa earned her Bachelor of Arts degree from Virginia Wesleyan University. She joins our firm with an extensive background as a litigation paralegal.
As a part of our Personal Injury team, Melissa works closely with our attorneys, assisting with depositions, witness preparation, and research. She primarily handles cases that are being litigated through General District Court, and assists with cases in Circuit and Federal Court as well.
“I was excited to join the Pendleton Law Team because of the experience level of the staff and positive culture and growth potential. All of the core values of the firm align with my personal values. Honesty, integrity, faith and hard work - I appreciate those who value others.”
When she isn’t helping our attorneys slam-dunk their cases, Melissa enjoys spending time with her children: Molly, Taylor, and Jonathan. You also can find her practicing yoga and her golf swing.
