35 Jury Trials as 1st Chair
5 Arizona Counties
20+ Years of Trial Experience

Why the Record Matters

For eighteen years, Jennifer Rebholz tried cases for the defense: first inside an insurance carrier, then as outside counsel. Thirty-five went to an Arizona jury with her as first chair.

Most cases settle, and most lawyers, including most personal injury lawyers, never stand first chair in front of a jury.

Every trial is listed below with its case number, court, and opposing counsel, so any of it can be checked.

Since 2023 she has represented injured people and families in catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases, as one of 93 lawyers in Arizona board certified in personal injury and wrongful death.

Trials by year, 2006 to 2023

Arizona jury trials were largely suspended during the pandemic.
