The firm of Emmanuel Sheppard & Condon is proud to announce that one of its attorneys, Rachel Sheffield, has been named a Rising Star by the Independent News.

Every year, the Independent News, a Pensacola news publication, awards the title of Rising Star to young professionals who were seen by their peers, clients and bosses as up and coming leaders in their fields and the community. Since the inception of the award 12 years ago, the Independent News has named over 550 men and women as Rising Stars. Several have gone on to seek and win political office.

Rachel joined Emmanuel Sheppard & Condon in August 2018 as an associate attorney. Rachel is a double Gator, having earned her bachelor’s degree magna cum laude in Business Administration along with her Juris Doctorate cum laude from the University of Florida.
