Pierre-Louis had previously worked as attorney-in-charge of the United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey's Trenton and Camden branches, and as a partner at the law firm of Montgomery McCracken.

Early life and education

Pierre-Louis was born in New York City and spent her early childhood in Brooklyn before moving to Irvington, New Jersey.[1][2][3] She is the daughter of Haitian American immigrants[3][4] and speaks Haitian Creole fluently.[5]

Pierre-Louis graduated from Union Catholic Regional High School in 1998.[6] She earned a bachelor's degree from Rutgers University and a Juris Doctor from Rutgers Law School.[3]

Career

Pierre-Louis served as a law clerk for New Jersey Supreme Court Justice John E. Wallace Jr. Pierre-Louis worked for almost ten years as an assistant United States attorney in the office of United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey, and served as the attorney-in-charge of the U.S. Attorney's Trenton and Camden branches. After leaving that position she became a partner at the law firm of Montgomery McCracken in its Cherry Hill office.[7][5]

On June 5, 2020, Governor Phil Murphy announced his intention to nominate Pierre-Louis to the New Jersey Supreme Court[3][7] to replace Walter F. Timpone, who was approaching the state's mandatory retirement age for judges.[8] On August 24, 2020, the New Jersey Senate's Judiciary Committee voted 11–0 to advance her nomination to the full Senate,[9][10] and on August 27, 2020, the Senate voted 39–0 to confirm her to the Court.[11][12][13]

Pierre-Louis was sworn in on September 1, 2020, one day after Justice Timpone stepped down.[8] She is the first Black woman to serve on the court.[14]

In 2023, The White House considered nominating Pierre-Louis for a vacancy on the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, however she withdrew her name from consideration.[15]
