Jay Pena
Attorney at Pope & Peña, P.C.
I am a 6th generation Texan and blessed because all of those generations were hard-working farm laborers--good people. I was born in the Texas Panhandle, in the small cattle town of Hereford and raised on an onion field in Rio Grande City, right on the Texas-Mexico border.
I studied business and economics for almost 10 years before I decided I needed a law degree to complement my profession as a consultant. Along the way, I learned that business, economics, law and onion fields all have one important thing in common: roots.
My life is God, family, and my profession, and I leverage every part of who I am, not only to better understand the dynamics of what our clients do, but also to understand their goals and what they care for.
