Chelsea Hesla on bagpipes, integrity and the many benefits of new shoes

I can’t go a day without … my family, including my dog, Obi.

If you were in my office, you’d … see lots of artwork and bright colors.

My colleagues would be surprised to know that … I love camping.

The lawyer I most admire is … my husband, Scott Hesla.

The quality I most like in a lawyer is … integrity.

My pre-trial routine is … listening to Ludacris or Buckcherry while I drive to court.

When I started, I wish I knew … not to take myself too seriously.

If I weren’t a lawyer, I’d be … an event planner.

My most bizarre talent is … playing the bagpipes.

The talent I wish I had is … the ability to do the splits.

My favorite song lyric is … “Smart enough to make these millions, strong enough to bear the children, then get back to business” – Beyoncé

I wish I had invented … Post-its.

When I win a case, I celebrate by … buying new shoes.

Nothing cheers me up like … new shoes!

My guilty pleasure is … shocker—new shoes!
