Jessica
Jessica Dilmore brings a rare combination of medical and legal expertise to her practice, a distinction that makes her a particularly valuable advocate in medical malpractice and healthcare litigation. A lifelong Mississippian with a passion for serving her community, Jessica began her career in healthcare, graduating from Hinds Community College in 2008 with an Associate Degree in Nursing and earning her RN license upon passing the NCLEX.
Driven to apply her medical knowledge in a new capacity, Jessica pursued a legal education with exceptional distinction. She graduated summa cum laude from Mississippi College in 2012 with a Bachelor's Degree in Paralegal Studies, then earned her Juris Doctor cum laude from the University of Mississippi School of Law in 2016. She was admitted to the Mississippi Bar, the U.S. District Court for the Northern and Southern Districts of Mississippi, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in the fall of 2016.
About
With a nursing background that preceded her legal career, Jessica found her professional home in medical malpractice litigation naturally and purposefully. She is deeply fulfilled by the opportunity to guide clients through what are often the most difficult moments of their lives, combining her clinical insight with her legal expertise to advocate for those who have been harmed by medical negligence.
Outside of the office, Jessica is a devoted family woman and an active member of her community. She and her husband, Dustin Letchworth, reside in Brandon with their daughter Lydia, who joined their family through adoption in the fall of 2023, and four beloved pets. The family are members of Word of Life Church and remain actively engaged in their surrounding community. In her personal time, Jessica enjoys gardening, reading, cooking, and taking on DIY projects.
