About Lisa
Lisa Jackson earned her J.D. from Regent University School of Law in 2014. She completed a law school curriculum that combined classroom study with practical exercises. Classwork and clinical opportunities there prepared her for practice in Virginia.
After law school, Jackson moved into private practice. She is admitted to practice in Virginia and has built a practice rooted in state-level matters. Colleagues describe her as steady and measured in court and at the negotiating table. She pays attention to the details that drive cases forward.
Her early years in the profession included work on a range of matters that gave her exposure to litigation and client counseling. That experience helped her develop practical skills in drafting court filings, preparing clients for hearings, and managing discovery. She has worked on matters before Virginia state courts and routinely interacts with opposing counsel and court staff.
Jackson is a member of professional organizations and keeps current with developments in Virginia law. She attends continuing legal education programs and participates in practice groups that reflect the needs of her clients. Those activities keep her connected to peers and to changes in procedure and local rules.
In her current role at Phillips & Peters she represents individuals and entities in matters heard in Virginia forums. Her practice involves both courtroom appearances and out-of-court negotiation. Clients who come through the firm find that she emphasizes clear explanations and practical next steps.
Outside the courtroom she spends time writing memoranda and preparing trial exhibits. She values straightforward communication. That approach guides how she advises clients about strategy and options at each stage of a matter.
Colleagues say Jackson brings an even temperament to complex or time-sensitive files. She balances deadlines, client expectations, and court schedules in a disciplined way. Peers rely on her for reliable legal research and careful preparation.
As of 2026 she continues to practice at Phillips & Peters, where she handles matters in Virginia courts and provides legal counsel to clients.
