Friday, Eldredge & Clark LLP is pleased to announce that partner Jamie Jones Walsworth has been named among the Top 100 Women of Arkansas, a recognition presented through a partnership between the Women’s Foundation of Arkansas, Arkansas Business Publishing Group and Little Rock Soirée.
The Top 100 Women of Impact initiative recognizes 100 women from across the state whose leadership, ambition and accomplishments are making an impact on Arkansas businesses and communities. The program was developed to recognize women at different stages of their careers, from established executives and board leaders to rising professionals and those whose influence often occurs behind the scenes.
Jamie is a partner in Friday, Eldredge & Clark’s Litigation Practice Group and a member of the firm’s Management Committee. Her practice focuses on complex business and commercial litigation in state and federal courts, including class actions, business torts, trade secrets, breach of contract, product liability, transportation matters and other high-stakes disputes. She also has significant trial experience and represents clients in corporate investigations and regulatory matters.
Her leadership extends throughout Arkansas’ legal community. Jamie served as President of the Arkansas Bar Association for the 2025-2026 bar year, after being elected without opposition in 2023. She previously served on the Association’s Board of Trustees and has held leadership roles with the Arkansas Bar Foundation, Arkansas Association of Defense Counsel and Federation of Defense & Corporate Counsel.
Jamie’s professional accomplishments include recognition in The Best Lawyers in America® in multiple litigation categories. Most recently, she was named the 2027 Best Lawyers® “Lawyer of the Year” for Mass Tort Litigation / Class Actions – Defendants in Little Rock. She has also been recognized by Mid-South Super Lawyers and was named to Arkansas Business’ 40 Under 40 class in 2017.
In addition to her legal practice, Jamie has been active in civic and nonprofit leadership. She chaired the Board of Directors of the American Heart Association – Central Arkansas from 2023 to 2025 and has served on boards associated with the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts, Junior League of Little Rock and Leadership Greater Little Rock.
The Top 100 recognition has longstanding ties to the Women’s Foundation of Arkansas. Arkansas Business Publishing Group began honoring the Top 100 Women in Arkansas in 1995, and the program ultimately helped inspire the creation of the Women’s Foundation of Arkansas in 1998. Today, the Foundation works to advance the economic security of women and girls in Arkansas through education, workforce development, mentorship and other initiatives.
