Chelsea Gumm is a dedicated trial attorney at Zinda Law Group, based in the firm’s Austin office. A passionate advocate for justice, Chelsea’s decision to become a lawyer was deeply personal and rooted in a desire to use her talents to serve others. Inspired by her late grandfather, a respected attorney in her hometown, Chelsea knew early on that she wanted to be a voice for those who couldn’t speak for themselves. Personal injury law offered her the opportunity to meet people in their most difficult moments and fight on their behalf for justice.
Chelsea has handled a wide range of personal injury cases, including car and trucking accidents, dog bites, premises liability, and wrongful death. She is especially drawn to severe and catastrophic injury cases that involve complex litigation issues. Known for her analytical mind, detail-oriented nature, and compassionate approach, Chelsea is a steadfast advocate who strives to make a meaningful impact in the lives of her clients.
Chelsea began her legal career at Zinda Law Group in 2017, first clerking during law school and then joining full-time after graduation. Her experience includes working as a legal intern for the Collin County Criminal District Attorney’s Office, where she helped secure a guilty verdict in an assault family violence bench trial. She also completed judicial internships at the McLennan County Court at Law No. 2 and the State Office of Administrative Hearings.
Outside of work, Chelsea enjoys spending time with her husband, Cole, and their energetic Border Collie, Scout. Whether it's being on the water near Barton Springs, attending a live music show, or exploring Austin’s vibrant food scene, Chelsea embraces everything her city has to offer.
