Koryn Sheppard is a Certified Family Law Specialist running for Superior Court Judge in the 2024 election. 

She has practiced family law in San Diego for fifteen years. She is currently on the San Diego Family Law Bar Association board and is a frequent MCLE contributor. Koryn is an adjunct professor at Thomas Jefferson School of Law. She teaches California Civil Procedure. 

Koryn wants to continue giving back to the community through public services as a Superior Court Judge. The family courts touch the lives of so many in our community- including the children in the community. In fact, more people will contact the judicial system through the family court than other areas of the law. Family law also crosses over nearly every other area of law. This breadth of experience with legal issues makes Koryn uniquely qualified to be a Judge. 

The community and practitioners deserve a Judge who is dedicated to providing families with informed solutions during a difficult time, and who has the experience to make a real difference in their lives. 

While family law is non-traditional for a Superior Court Judge, diversity in professional legal experience benefits the community.

    “I recently had the pleasure of getting to know Koryn during this recent holiday season as she welcomed me into her home for a Thanksgiving gathering with her family and friends. Having that opportunity to learn of her upbringing, her navigation towards and into an established career and her visions for the future, was very meaningful in understanding her passion to sit as San Diego, superior court judge. I was blessed to have the opportunity to meet this woman and be embraced by her, as well as her family and close friends, and I wish nothing but great achievements for Koryn's drive towards reaching success for the county she loves. Grit and compassion are amongst many unique qualities she possesses, and I'm sure make her an excellent candidate to support all the way towards victory in this campaign. Thank you so much Koryn for your time and I look forward to continuing our newfound friendship for years beyond. With certainty I know you will touch many more lives to come, and established peace and justice will always be sought-after first and foremost.”
