Katie Cosgrove serves as counsel for Liberty Justice Center. She believes strongly that Americans should be aware of, and willing to stand up for, the constitutional protections we have been afforded. She is grateful to serve LJC’s mission to safeguard individual rights from the government overreach our founders so rightly feared.

Katie received her bachelor’s degree in History – specializing in Early American – from the University of California, Davis in 2012. She graduated from Regent University School of Law in Virginia in May 2016 where she was the only student in her class to serve as a member of both the Trial Advocacy Board and the Moot Court Board. For her 3L year, she was elected Chair of the Trial Advocacy Board. She moved back to the West Coast and was sworn into the California Bar in December 2016.

In her first two years of practice, she spent her days in the courtroom as a Deputy District Attorney and a family law associate. Prior to working for LJC, Katie served as a Senior Staff Attorney for the Superior Court of California for seven years – providing legal research, analysis, and recommended rulings to judges in the area of criminal law.

Outside of work, Katie enjoys spending time with her husband and three children, going to museums, tending to her small flock of chickens, and exploring nature.
