Headshot of Lily Engle.

Lily Engle joined The Conservation Fund in August of 2006, after 10 years of private practice in Alexandria, VA, where she represented individuals and corporations in a variety of civil matters. At the Fund, she draws on her extensive and varied legal experience—in areas ranging from employment to real estate—to serve as counsel for real estate transactions, handling Fund corporate and human resources matters, and serving as counsel for the Fund’s Conservation Loans program and for the Freshwater Institute.

While in private practice, Lily worked as both a transactional lawyer and a litigator. She represented clients in real estate, contractual, and employment, and corporate matters in state trial and appellate courts, as well as Federal District and Federal bankruptcy courts in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia.

Lily grew up in the Philadelphia area and has a B.A. from Swarthmore College in sociology and anthropology. She received her J.D. from The University of Virginia School of Law, and after 25 years in the Alexandria area, now lives in Charlottesville with her husband.
