About Andrea
Biography
I have always had a strong interest in helping people since I was sworn in as an attorney over 20 years ago.
Since 2004, I have volunteered for the UNC Law School's Community Legal Project which offers free legal assistance through the Compass Center in Chapel Hill (formerly The Women’s Center). I was also on the NC Bar Association's Lawyer Referral Service list for over 10 years. Finally I donate my time once a year at the NC Bar Association's "4ALL Statewide Service Day" - where attorneys throughout the state answer phone calls all day and provide free legal information and referral resources for numerous areas of law.
Early on, I felt called to help people going through the difficult, stressful, confusing, and emotional stages of separation, divorce, and other challenging family law matters and practiced in that area for the majory of my career. But over the past 2 decades, I have also gained experience in numerous other ares, including employment law and discrimination, real estate, landlord tenant law, contracts (drafting, reviewing, and disputes), collections and foreclosures.
