While most lawyers are dreaming of making the perfect closing argument at trial, Heather Zachary is probably finishing up another case-winning brief. But as the daughter of a judge and previous law clerk of two Arkansas Supreme Court judges, Zachary’s focus on appellate law is a natural fit. In private practice, she has handled numerous appeals on issues from class-action litigation to bankruptcy. Her innate ability to simplify complex legal arguments so that even her children can understand them have made her a resource of appellate knowledge for lawyers across the state.

Heather Zachary is routinely recognized as a top legal writer in the state. She is an annual speaker at the Arkansas Bar Association meetings and an adjunct faculty member at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock Bowen School of Law, where she teaches courses on appellate writing.

In her spare time, Zachary loves to sing and can frequently be found leading music at Christ the King Catholic Church in Little Rock. She and her husband Justin have three children, Grace, Shepard and Cecelia.
