Jess Birken

Jess Birken owns Birken Law Office, a solo firm for nonprofits. That’s where she offers an innovative, highly automated, subscription-based legal program for nonprofits called Mission Guardian. Jess doesn’t believe attorneys need to be tied to the way things have always been done – or even to their office. She works out of her backpack at some favorite spots including her best friend’s dining room table in Seattle, a co-working space in Minneapolis, her parents’ pool in Florida, and airports. When she’s not lawyering, Jess is helping other lawyers change their lives and their law practices through her Hack Your Practice project. The venture helps other lawyers discover ways to lifehack their law practice and crack the code on work/life integration.
