Success Story: Mississippi Lawyer Nominated Cook of the Week Balances Family and a Budding Legal Practice

Jenifer Branning, a 2004 graduate of the Mississippi College School of Law, has set her sights on the challenging task of building her own law practice. But her family won't take a backseat to her ambition - "the kids (3 and 1) come first," she says.

As per a recent portrait in the Neshoba Democrat where she was nominated "Cook of the Week," Jennifer works hard at balancing career and family, including time devoted to personal interests such as reading, writing and antiques, travel with her family, religious activites, and preparing feasts for friends in her home together with her husband.
