McGinnis Lochridge is pleased to welcome Rachel Reinbolt as an associate in the firm’s Labor & Employment practice group.
Rachel joins the firm with experience supporting employment law matters in both private practice and higher education. As a summer associate in the firm’s Dallas office, she researched multistate wage and hour laws for client compliance matters and drafted pretrial motions in discrimination and wage and hour cases. She also previously worked in the University of Houston’s Office of the General Counsel, where she researched employment discrimination and worker classification issues and trained university employees on the Americans with Disabilities Act and workplace accommodations.
During law school, Rachel served as Chief Notes and Comments Editor of the Houston Law Review and published two student notes. One examined whether felony convictions should limit eligibility for public office and was featured on SiriusXM’s POTUS Politics Channel. Her second explored the constitutional interpretation of the Cruel and Unusual Punishment Clause and its implications for people experiencing homelessness. The note was named the best submission in the Law Review’s 2024 Write-On Competition.
Rachel earned her J.D., cum laude, from the University of Houston Law Center and her B.A. in Political Science, summa cum laude, from the University of Houston.
McGinnis Lochridge looks forward to Rachel’s contributions to the firm and its commitment to serving clients’ labor and employment law needs.
