Jessica Lynn Karr is a native of Jefferson Parish and a graduate of Archbishop Blenk High School, the University of New Orleans, and Loyola University College of Law.  A resident of the Northshore for over 15 years, Jessica is the proud owner of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Kirby who can often be found roaming her office. Upon graduating from law school, Jessica honed her litigation skills for several years in a small civil litigation firm and title company in downtown Covington.  Her work there initially focused on real estate property disputes, real estate transactions, successions, and estate planning.  Over time, her practice expanded into family law, with an emphasis on adoption, divorce, and custody disputes.  In 2014, Jessica was voted the Northshore’s Best Attorney by the readers of Sophisticated Woman magazine.

Jessica is also very active in local community affairs.  She is the President of the Board of Directors for the Safe Harbor Domestic Violence Program, an original member of the East St. Tammany Habitat for Humanity Remarkable Rosies team, and she serves on the Jazz on the Bayou planning committee.

Jessica has been admitted to practice in all Louisiana state courts since April of 2008.
