Welcome to Personal Jurisdiction! per·son·al ju·ris·dic·tion | \ ˈpər-sə-nəl \ˌju̇r-əs-ˈdik-shən When you look up “Personal Jurisdiction” in Black’s Law Dictionary, it directs you to the entry for “Jurisdiction.” We won’t do that to you. We’re here because there’s not enough good information available for law students and new attorneys to make informed choices about their careers. Join co-hosts Allison Freedman and Hallie Ritzu as we talk to a variety of people within the first 10ish years of practice to hear about their journeys to fulfilling careers and the advice they have for getting there. From government to start-ups; politics to academia; in-house to legal aid—we’ll get the scoop on what it’s really like to work in different areas of the law, so you can chart your own course for success.

#96: Let's Get Personal with Julie Siegal, Executive Counsel for Strategic Matters at GE Aerospace

Julie Siegal is Executive Counsel for Strategic Matters at GE Aerospace in Washington, D.C., and she has been a part of some of the most hallowed spaces in the law. We love this episode because Julie gives us insight into the stories behind her career path, including the deeply personal experience with breast cancer that challenged her to ask what she wanted her life to look like and how she wanted her career to change.

Julie Siegal is Executive Counsel for Strategic Matters at GE Aerospace. She is based in Washington, D.C. Prior to her current role, Julie was a partner at Kirkland and Ellis. Julie was a law clerk to Chief Justice John Roberts on the United States Supreme Court. She was also a Bristow Fellow in the Office of the Solicitor General.
