I am a life-long detroiter who is committed to upholding justice and serving the community. As the current general counsel of 36th District Court, i am focused on ensuring access to justice for all litigants. As an adjunct law professor I impart wisdom and legal knowledge to the next generation of young lawyers.

I was raised in the law, being the daughter of retired 36th District Court Judge Vanesa Jones-Bradley, and went on to practice law for more than ten years alongside my law partner and father, Avery Bradley. I have enjoyed a varied practice over the course of 17 years, including my practice at two of the largest law firms in the city, serving as an Administrative Law Judge for the State of Michigan and Hearing Officer for the city of Detroit.

I have been a student and teacher of the law and am qualified to serve the citizens as their next 36th District Coirt Judge.
  • I will ensure due process to all litigants by being fair and impartial in every matter.
  • I am committed to legal research and writing and making decisions based on the law and free from any bias.
  • Experience matters. I have quasi-judicial experience, have significant legal experience in complex matters, and work daily in 36th District court creating and implementing policies to ensure access to justice. I have written proposed judicial opinions and advised judges on legal issues.
I would like leave the legal profession as a legal scholar who was dedicated to being fair and compassionate
