Stinson LLP is proud to announce that attorney Jenna Hueneger has been recognized with the John R. Essner Young Lawyer Award for Pro Bono Work by Legal Services of Eastern Missouri. The award is part of the organization's 2021 Common Good Awards, which celebrated the contributions of nine volunteers and community partners.

Jenna was recognized for her commitment and generosity to low-income entrepreneurs and grassroots nonprofit clients through Legal Services’ Community Economic Development – Microenterprise Program. Jenna was the first volunteer in a new legal clinic targeting early-stage entrepreneurs to help them launch a new business.

"Jenna's commitment to pro bono has helped build businesses and opportunities across the St. Louis region. She is an active young lawyer who seeks smart solutions for her clients and supports the ideals of innovative legal delivery, often taking on new matters as soon as she finishes work with another client," noted in the release.

Jenna advises clients through a diverse array of complex business transactions. Her experience includes reorganizations, acquisitions and divestitures, financings and lease transactions. Although her practice spans across multiple industries, Jenna has gained significant experience in advising clients in the agribusiness industry.
