Jennifer Hicks

Jennifer Hicks, Director of Client Development at Capital Fund Law Group, joined the firm in the early part of 2018 and has quickly become an integral team member. She liaises with the in-house attorneys, assists prospective and current clients with their fund planning and formation process and provides guidance to emerging managers on non-legal fund-related matters. Furthermore, Ms. Hicks organizes the firm's investment fund events and is the point of contact for our Managing Partner, John Lore.

Ms. Hicks, who has been a lifelong student of the legal field, held a career in law enforcement in the state of Utah prior to becoming a part of Capital Fund Law Group. Having been a first responder allowed Ms. Hicks the opportunity to gain valuable skills, which include investigative research, critical thinking, extreme attention to detail and multitasking – all skills required to make the transition to the corporate side of the law. While her client base is now fund managers and not the public, Ms. Hicks understands the importance of public relations and perception. In fact, she partakes in podcasts and interviews showcasing her transition from one area of the law to another.

Given her time as a civil servant, Ms. Hicks continues to fuel her passion for giving back and serving the community. During her law enforcement career, Ms. Hicks was nominated as Police Association President, a volunteer role, where she organized a police and fire charity event to raise money and awareness for a child in her community. In her personal life, Ms. Hicks actively organizes events and projects, often surrounding military causes and children in her community.

Ms. Hicks holds an Associate’s Degree in Criminal Justice and her Paralegal Certification. She has also earned several advanced certifications in communications and investigations. Awards include the Police Combat Cross medal for her response and action taken during a 2015-armed assailant situation.
