Alexandra (Alex) Henson Joins the Firm

June 1, 2019

Alex Henson is an upcoming third-year law student at Lewis and Clark Law School located in Portland, Oregon and joins the firm this summer as a law clerk.

“My grandfather was Robert Henson, one of the founding partners of Henson Efron. I am honored to begin my legal career by clerking at the firm he helped build and to have the opportunity to learn from and work with some of the attorneys that he worked alongside,” Alex said.

After her first year of law school Alex did an externship at Lawyers for Human Rights in Pretoria, South Africa, where she focused on land issues relating to mining and mining communities. She is currently on the Executive Board for Environmental Law as the Executive Editor.

“I have structured my course work around my interest in business law, but I am enjoying getting to work in all of Henson Efron’s practice areas this summer and am finding that I also have an interest in family law and estate planning.”

Originally from Colorado, Alex also is enjoying spending time with extended family in Minnesota.
