She also represented management in collective bargaining, employee grievances and arbitrations, and transactional matters.

Previously, Joey was an Assistant Attorney General in the General Litigation Division, where she defended public entities and public officials in state and federal courts.

Joey is a frequent speaker at legal seminars and enjoys training school districts across the state. This former Chair of the School Law Section of the State Bar of Texas has also co-chaired the planning committee for the School Law Retreat and is on the planning committee for the University of Texas School Law Conference.
