About Jerome A.
Jerome A. Hawkins built a professional path that moves between law, marketing and media. He earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in finance from Loyola Marymount University and later completed his Juris Doctor at the University of San Francisco School of Law in 2016. The combination of business and legal schooling shaped his early choices and left him comfortable operating in both courtroom and boardroom settings.
His first legal post after law school was as a post-bar law clerk at The Veen Firm, P.C., where he handled research and supported litigation teams. He then shifted into an in-house marketing role, serving as director of marketing at The Cartwright Law Office, Inc. in 2017. Those years gave him experience on both sides of law practice: case work and the business of running a law office. In 2020 he expanded into public speaking and coaching under the professional name JeromeAnthonyHawkins, advising others on presentation and practice. In 2021 he launched two ventures. He started Hawkline Video as founder and creative director, and he also began practicing under Hawkins Injury Law Office.
The intersection of media and legal work is a recurring theme in Hawkins’s career. He has combined content production and public outreach with client representation, applying skills from his marketing role to explain legal issues plainly. His background suggests an attorney who understands client communication, court procedure and the practical concerns of running a small firm. He has worked in several capacities inside California legal markets, moving from law clerk work into roles that demanded both strategic messaging and hands-on legal tasks.
Colleagues and clients often find his trajectory unusual. It is not the straight line from law school to partner. Instead it bends through marketing departments, speaking engagements and a video company. That variety affects how he approaches cases. He tends to prioritize clear explanation, timely communication and pragmatic problem solving. Those elements appear in the services offered at Hawkins Injury Law Office, where he handles matters arising under California law.
As of 2026 he operates Hawkins Injury Law Office out of California. He combines legal practice with ongoing media and speaking projects. He focuses on personal injury law at Hawkins Injury Law Office.
