Alexis Jackson Recognized as 2026 ‘Leading Young Lawyers’ Honoree by Law Week Colorado

Real estate associate Alexis Jackson has been selected by Law Week Colorado as a 2026 ‘Leading Young Lawyers’ honoree, a recognition that celebrates “outstanding early-career attorneys making a meaningful impact in the legal profession and their communities.” 

Jackon’s profile showcases her early passion for the legal profession. She shared that, as a kindergartener, her class was visited by an attorney who described her job as “helping people determine what’s right and wrong.” Jackson recalled, “That clicked for me. I’ve always been someone who wants to be on the right side of things and help others get there too.”

When discussing what drew her to transactional law, Jackson explained that she loves bringing people together. “In transactional work, both sides are working toward a shared goal. It’s about collaboration, compromise, and building something,” she added. 

The article also emphasizes Jackon’s dedication to pro bono efforts, spotlighting her work on pardon applications and her support for asylum seekers. “I’ve always felt a responsibility to give back,” she asserted. “My grandfather always said, ‘Unity in the community,’ and that stuck with me.”
