Meet Jacqueline Lucci Smith
Many of you know my work from my service as Judge of Harris County Civil Court at Law No. 2. Before taking the bench, I served as an Assistant County Attorney and later as Director and Legal Counsel at the Harris County Tax Office, managing complex legal and operational issues that directly affected county government and taxpayers. Today, I continue that work through my law practice, handling complex legal matters that demand careful judgment and disciplined legal analysis.
Harris County is at a moment where experience and sound legal leadership matter. The County Attorney’s Office touches every part of county government, public safety, fiscal stewardship, and the legal integrity of our institutions. I am running because this office must be led by someone who understands its responsibilities and is prepared to defend Harris County with professionalism and the rule of law.
Winning in November will require focus, discipline, and the support of people across Harris County who believe our institutions should be guided by the law, not politics. Together, we can restore accountable leadership and ensure this office serves the county as it was intended.
Warmest personal regards,
Jacqueline Lucci Smith
