In addition to her judicial experience, Ms. Milstead participated in the University of Richmond School of Law’s Children’s Defense Clinic, where she represented juveniles facing delinquency charges.

Having grown up in the judicial district in which the firm practices, Ms. Milstead is excited to serve the community in which she was raised.
