Jessica Nugent-Herrett

Hi, my name is Jess, and I am a Solicitor at Ridley and Hall Solicitors. In my spare time I enjoy learning martial arts and I am currently studying Wing Chun. I also enjoy painting wargaming figures, reading comics (and volunteering at the annual Thought Bubble Comic Con in Harrogate) and I love food! Also, alongside law, I am a certified Mindfulness and Meditation teacher and I feel passionately about supporting people's mental health and wellbeing. I wanted to revive the Huddersfield JLD as I had a lot of fun networking with my fellow local trainees at events held by the law society and found everyone to be very supportive, so thought it would be great to have a forum where more people could experience that in our industry.

Former JLD Chair in 2023.
