About Lady Law Shield
Built by a Cop, for Cops and First Responders
BRIDGET TRUXILLO, JD
Bridget was a Deputy Sheriff in Florida, and after spending time in patrol, she transferred to the Narcotics and Organized Crime Unit (NOCU) and joined the SWAT team. Bridget has seen these pressures firsthand, on the street and inside her own department.
Bridget loved serving the public, but she wanted to serve law enforcement in a different way. So she left the field and went to law school.
Bridget launched Lady Law Shield to help law enforcement officers and first responders alleviate legal worries. All legal services are designed to provide comfort, ease, and support for a more balanced and joyful life. Bridget lives with her husband and three kids in Houston, Texas.
