About Tara A. Enix

Tara began her legal career working defense for a firm that litigated product liability and asbestos cases. The experience helped her gain invaluable knowledge on how defendants operate in personal injury cases. This would later be an asset in the courtroom and beyond. Her proficiency as a judicial clerk and a litigator, as well as her minor in Business made her an asset at Virginia Commonwealth University, where she served as an adjunct professor.

For two years, she taught a course on the intersectionality of the legal world and business in a course entitled The Legal Environment of Business. She has unmatched experience securing damages in the seven-figure range, with at least eight victories in which her clients recovered over a million or multimillion-dollar verdicts and settlements. She has worked in personal injury on the plaintiff side since 2016, and her tenacity in and out of the courtroom has earned her a reputation for excellence.

In her spare time, she enjoys reading and traveling with her family. Greece and Italy are a couple of their favorite destinations. She's married with a young son, and has two beloved rescue dogs at home.
