JENNIFER L. CUTLER grew up in Santa Rosa, leaving in 1984 to attend UC San Diego, Revelle College. She received a B.A. degree in Psychology, and then attended law school at McGeorge School of Law in Sacramento. She was a writer and editor of the six volume treatise Owens California Forms & Procedure, a publication setting forth the procedural law and forms used in civil litigation. She was also nominated for Best Oral Advocate and Best Brief in the Moot Court Program. She received her J.D. in 1991.

Jennifer moved to Ventura, California and began practicing insurance defense law at the law firm of Ellis, Beach, Procter & McCarthy. In 1993, she left that practice with the senior partner Ellis to start up a new firm. With this move, Jennifer was able to receive excellent trial experience early in her career. However, wishing to return to Northern California, Jennifer moved to Sacramento in November 1995. She continued her practice at the law firm of Anwyl, Scoffield, Stepp & Universal, where she defended lawsuits involving personal injuries and property damages resulting from automobile accidents and negligently constructed and maintained commercial premises and construction sites.

In February 1998, after six years of learning all the ins-and-outs of insurance companies and the defense world, Jennifer decided to use her knowledge to serve injured plaintiffs and joined the law firm of Poswall & White. Since joining Poswall & White, she has specialized in cases involving personal injury and sexual harassment. She has litigated many large profile cases, including a suit against the presiding judge of Placer County and a claim against a nationally broadcast media company, both for sexual harassment of female employees and the creation of a hostile work environment. After three years, she became a named partner.

Jennifer is also an outstanding athlete, who has played a variety of sports including volleyball, softball, floor hockey and lacrosse. In mid-2001, Jennifer played wide receiver for the Sacramento Sirens, a women’s professional football team. She now currently enjoys training for marathons, triathlons, and mountain climbing.
