LINDSTROM, MN, December 11, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Summer J. Young, Esq., has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Ms. Young is a distinguished lawyer with a decade of experience in the legal profession. She currently serves as the managing partner at Young & Pevehouse Law PLLC, a position she has held since 2022. In this role, she specializes in litigating high-asset divorce cases, business law, trademark registration and civil cases. She also manages the hiring process for her firm, works closely with clients in court mediations and is responsible for drafting legal documents. Her leadership was instrumental in the firm being voted the top law firm in 2023.
Prior to her current role, Ms. Young served as a judicial law clerk at the Hennepin County Judicial Court from 2019 to 2022. Her early career included positions such as student admissions ambassador for graduate programs at Thomas Jefferson School of Law from 2016 to 2019. While traveling for that role and attending law school full time, she was selected to be on the Thomas Jefferson Law School's Moot Court Competition Team and their Law Review Honor Society. During her last year of law school she was a legal intern at Batta Fulkerson Law Group, a personal injury law firm.
Ms. Young's academic journey began with a diploma from Chisago Lakes High School (Lindstrom, Minnesota), followed by a bachelor's degree in ski business and resort management from Sierra Nevada University (Lake Tahoe, Nevada) in 2015. She then pursued her Juris Doctorate with specializations in sports and entertainment law from Thomas Jefferson School of Law (San Diego, California), graduating in 2018. Furthering her education, she obtained a Master of Laws in finance and financial management services from the same institution in 2019. Her academic excellence is highlighted by her graduation in the top five percent of her class from law school and graduating from college summa cum laude.
Complementing her formal education, Ms. Young's professional credentials include being a dual-licensed attorney through the Minnesota State Board and Wisconsin State Board. Additionally, she is admitted to several bar associations, including the Hennepin County Bar Association, the Minnesota State Bar Association, the Ramsey County Bar Association, and the Wisconsin State Bar Association.
Ms. Young's professional accolades include being named among the Top 40 Under 40 by National Trial Lawyers three years in a row, and receiving multiple CALI Excellence for the Future Awards during her time at Thomas Jefferson School of Law (an award received for earning the highest grade in the class). She attributes much of her success to growing up in a household of entrepreneurs, with her parents running their own business. This taught her the value of grit, humility, hard work and having a good work ethic.
Outside her professional life, Ms. Young is committed to civic engagement through her roles as an assistant varsity girl's basketball coach at St. Croix Falls High School since 2022. She has also been a dedicated land conservationist.
In her personal life, Ms. Young enjoys spending time with family and friends as well as engaging in outdoor activities such as running, hiking, and swimming.
