POST DATE: 6.2.26
Church Church Hittle and Antrim (CCHA Law) has named Jennifer “Jenni” Hughes as Managing Partner, becoming the first woman to serve in this role in the firm’s history.
Jenni is a partner in the firm’s Family Law practice, where she represents individuals in complex divorce and family law matters, including high-net-worth cases involving sophisticated financial issues. Her practice includes the division of complex assets, business valuations, parenting time, and child support. In addition to her responsibilities as Managing Partner, she will continue to actively serve clients and maintain her family law practice.
“Jenni is deeply respected throughout our firm and is highly trusted by her clients,” said outgoing Managing Partner Alex Pinegar, who had served in the role since 2021. “She leads with care and holds herself to a high standard. The partnership and I are highly confident that Jenni is the ideal person to lead CCHA Law into our next chapter, and I am excited to see what the future holds for our firm.”
“CCHA Law has a strong foundation and a talented team, and I am honored to step into this role,” said Hughes. “I look forward to continuing to serve our clients while supporting the firm’s continued growth.”
Jenni joined CCHA Law in 2009 and has built a practice centered on helping clients navigate complex family law matters, including business valuations, division of assets, and prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. She is known for her strategic approach and dedication to achieving thoughtful, effective outcomes for her clients.
Outgoing Managing Partner Alex Pinegar will continue his practice with the firm, focusing on litigation, school and education law, and appellate matters.
Jenni earned her Juris Doctor from DePaul University College of Law and holds a Bachelor of Arts from Indiana University. She is admitted to practice law in Indiana and before the United States District Courts for the Northern and Southern Districts of Indiana, and is an active member of the Indiana State, Indianapolis, Hamilton County, and Boone County Bar Associations.
