Atlee Hall is pleased to announce that Attorney Melissa A. Jabour has been named Partner.
Melissa joined Atlee Hall in January 2014. She has assisted with many multi-million-dollar cases throughout her time at the firm, ranging from medical malpractice to automobile crashes to product liability. She obtained her J.D. from the Temple University James E. Beasley School of Law, magna cum laude, where she was elected to the Order of the Coif, and obtained an undergraduate degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from the University of Pennsylvania, magna cum laude. She is licensed to practice in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, and the U.S. Supreme Court.
Melissa enjoys doing pro bono work. Recently, she represented a victim of domestic violence in obtaining protected immigration status and employment authorization, in collaboration with the Lancaster Bar Association and the Pennsylvania Immigration Resource Center. Melissa also serves on the Board of Directors of Lancaster Dollars for Higher Learning, a non-profit that provides interest-free loans to Lancaster County residents pursuing higher education.
When asked her thoughts on becoming Partner, Melissa said, “I am tremendously honored to be a Partner at Atlee Hall. I grew up hearing about all of the meaningful work done by Founding Partner, Bill Atlee, as well as Managing Partner, Tom Hall. I am motivated to carry on the important work of fighting for those who have been injured due to others’ carelessness.”
Melissa joins Tom Hall, Mark Atlee, and her mom, Robin Jabour, as Partner. Atlee Hall is proud to be one of, if not the only firm in the county, with a mother-daughter pair as Partners.
