Iowa family law attorney and litigator Jessica Shannon was recently appointed to multiple leadership positions.

Jessica was recently elected Vice President of the Jack D. Levin Family Law Inn of Court, a distinguished group of family law attorneys and judges dedicated to fostering professional growth and discussing emerging legal issues. Having been involved since its inception, Jessica values the group’s collaborative spirit.

“I’m excited to serve as Vice President,” said Jessica, “The Family Inn of Court is a great place to share knowledge, get and give advice, and build community.”

In addition to this role, Jessica has been named to the Board of Directors for the Des Moines Chapter of Second Saturdays, a national organization that provides critical legal, financial, and emotional guidance for individuals navigating the divorce process. As a speaker, she helps demystify the legal aspects of divorce and ensures participants understand their rights and options.

“People don’t know what they don’t know,” Jessica said. “I enjoy walking people through what to expect and what their attorney’s responsibilities should be in a case. I believe everyone deserves excellent representation.”

Beyond these leadership roles, Jessica remains engaged in mentorship and community service. She volunteers at Drake University Law School, Lawyers in Libraries, and the Iowa State Bar Association Community Legal Education Program. She also serves on the Animal Lifeline of Iowa Board of Directors.
