Anna Worley
Ms. Worley is a 1993 graduate of Wake Forest University and a 1996 graduate of the Wake Forest University School of Law. Anna practices in the Raleigh firm of Herring, McBennett, Mills & Kratt, PLLC. She is a board-certified specialist in Family Law and a DRC-Certified Family Financial Mediator.
Throughout her career Anna has remained actively involved in public and community service, through activities with not only the Academy of Trial Lawyers where she has been a member of the Board of Governors since 2002, but also The Guilford Inn of Court, the JayCees and by serving on as an officer in both the Guilford County and Wake County Democratic Parties. She served as the First Vice President of the Hispanic Democrats of North Carolina, and she taught CPR as a volunteer for the Red Cross for over a decade. With the JayCees, Anna was recognized nationally for chairing the “Suits for Summit House” project, which collected business clothes for women living in a home that serves as a sentencing alternative for pregnant women and mothers convicted of nonviolent offenses. The Guilford County Democratic Women awarded her the Jane Smith Patterson Outstanding Service Award in 2000.
Spanish is Anna’s second language and she has sought to serve the growing Hispanic population in North Carolina, both in the court system and in the community. She has served multiple terms as the CLE Chair for the Hispanic/Latino Legal Issues Division of the North Carolina Academy of Trial Lawyers, and has spoken on Representing the Hispanic Client. Perhaps more importantly, she has spoken to community gatherings at programs sponsored by groups such as Abogados y Amigos (Lawyers & Friends), explaining aspects of our legal system and our laws.
