(Philadelphia, PA) — Chartwell is pleased to announce that Jennifer Bickham has joined the firm as a partner in its Austin, Texas office. With more than 20 years of experience in civil litigation, Jennifer’s arrival reflects Chartwell’s continued growth across Texas and its commitment to serving clients in one of the nation’s most influential legal markets. Based out of the firm’s Austin office and residing in Houston, Jennifer will play an active role in both markets.
Jennifer represents clients in a wide range of civil litigation matters, with a particular focus on catastrophic loss and complex tort defense. Her practice includes the defense of commercial motor carriers and drivers in trucking lawsuits, as well as wrongful death, personal injury, premises liability, product liability, and medical malpractice disputes.
“We are beyond excited to have Jennifer on our Texas team,” said Texas partner, Barrie Beer. “Her reputation as an effective advocate and her deep experience in catastrophic loss and liability defense add both depth and considerable talent to our work, enhancing the way we serve clients in Texas and beyond.”
Chartwell has been steadily growing its Texas presence to meet client demand, handling matters ranging from general liability, insurance defense, construction, and insurance coverage to first-party insurance defense and all types of catastrophic loss—from claim through verdict. Jennifer’s addition builds on this momentum, strengthening the firm’s ability to serve regional and national clients in Texas’s competitive business and legal environment.
Licensed in Texas since 2002, Jennifer is admitted to practice before the U.S. District Courts for the Southern, Western, and Eastern Districts of Texas. She earned her B.A. in History from the University of Texas and her J.D. from the University of Houston Law Center.
