Jennifer Overbury’s career as a trusts and estates paralegal is rooted in her desire to help people avoid the waste, frustration, and broken relationships that too often result from litigation. She sees how a proactive and empathic approach can help individuals and families find solutions to preserve relationships through healthy communication.
Jennifer strives to exemplify this approach in all she does. When her family faced a likely legal battle as they took possession of a home they’d purchased, they sought a better solution. Instead of eviction, they negotiated a settlement. The tenant left on good terms, and the family was thrilled to move into their new home.
Jennifer’s focus on communication in the world of trusts and estates emerged from her paralegal studies. Jennifer attended an end-of-life family communication training John led in 2014. The two hit it off, and Jennifer promptly joined O’Grady Law Group as a paralegal.
Organized, detail-oriented, and methodical, Jennifer is adept at keeping clients’ cases moving forward without delays or omissions. Her skills and focus make her an effective trusts and estates paralegal. She is always looking for ways to create positive solutions. Jennifer has a proven ability to comfort those who are suffering or grieving. She finds great satisfaction in helping people live more peaceful lives, even while dealing with the sadness, grief, and challenges that accompany facing death.
Jennifer received her Paralegal Certificate with High Honors from San Francisco State University. She also holds a BA in English Language and Literature from the University of Connecticut.
