Judge Julie Bray Patterson: Professional Background and Legal Expertise

Bexar County Justice of the Peace Court (Precinct 3, Place 1),

Biography

The Hon. Julie Bray Patterson is a judge for the Bexar County Justice of the Peace Court (Precinct 3, Place 1) in Texas. Patterson was elected to the bench on November 8, 2022.

Prior to her election, Patterson was an attorney in the legal division of the Bexar County Criminal District Court Administration, a position to which she was named in 2019. Before that, she spent time as a sole practitioner at her own private practice, where she handled criminal and juvenile law matters. She established her law practice in 2008.

During part of this time, she served as staff attorney (2017 to 2018) for the Family Enrichment Court of the 436th District Court and as an alternate prosecutor (2015 to 2018) for the City of Olmos Park.

She received a B.A. in political science and government from the University of Texas at Austin in 1992. Patterson then worked as a staff assistant to then-United States Senator Phil Gramm (1992 to 1993) before completing a J.D. at the University of Texas School of Law in 1996. She was admitted to practice in Texas (1996).

After graduating from law school, Patterson became the assistant to Hon. Lee Jackson with the Dallas County Court. She continued in that capacity until 1998, at which time she joined the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office, where she worked as an assistant district attorney for one year.

Then, in 1999, Patterson relocated to the private sector in Washington, D.C., where she represented small television and radio interests, including at the Federal Communications Commission, as an associate at Alcalde & Fay. She eventually returned to Texas, where she established her solo practice in San Antonio in 2008.

Patterson is a past president of the Mission Chapter of the Young Men’s Service League and served as chairman of the board of Morningside Ministries in San Antonio. Her other memberships include the Battle of Flowers Association and the San Antonio Bar Association.

Patterson attended San Antonio MacArthur High School. Her father, Clarence Bray, and her husband, Jamie Patterson, are both local attorneys. Patterson and Jamie have raised two children. She attends First Presbyterian Church.

She is registered as a Republican.
