Two Associates Join Hughes White
Jenna Krohn and Brett Watts have recently joined the firm of Hughes White Colbo Wilcox & Tervooren as Associate Attorneys.
Krohn graduated from the Mitchell Hamline School of Law in St. Paul, Minnesota, where she twice made Dean’s list and interned at the Municipality of Anchorage. She also worked full-time in human resources while attending law school. This work experience lends itself well to helping clients navigate difficult situations in employment law matters, as well as in insurance defense and family law.
After graduating in 2008 from Case Western Reserve University School of Law in Cleveland, Ohio, Watts practiced criminal law—both the prosecution and defense side—immigration law, family law, and general litigation. Watts left immigration law to spend more time in the courtroom, and now his practice focuses primarily on family law and litigation.

What happens when a city with fewer than 300 residents becomes a major freight and tourism hub, despite being accessible only by boat, plane, or a one-lane highway/railroad tunnel managed on a strict schedule?
If you’re in the City of Whittier, you get busy. The city has two separate transportation planning efforts underway, including a safety action plan under the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All initiative, which focuses on improving safety for pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and emergency responders. The second is Whittier Moves, the city’s transportation master plan, which serves as the long-term roadmap for growth.
