Andrea Sager is an author and the CEO and founder of Legalpreneur, a legal tech startup that focuses on offering affordable legal services to businesses of all sizes. While working at a corporate firm, Andrea noticed a gap in the legal industry – no one was catering to the small, innovative start-up brands dominating her social media feeds. As a serial entrepreneur, she knew firsthand the importance of building a business with a solid legal foundation. However, she also knew that many new businesses simply did not have the funds. That realization led to the development of Legalpreneur. Because legal services should be accessible to everyone.

In addition to running her company, Andrea is a mom of two in Houston and is passionate about all things health, wellness, poker and business.

Marlie H. Willer is an experienced trial lawyer that has dedicated her practice to 100% litigation. Marlie focuses her practice on medical malpractice, with a particular emphasis in obstetric negligence. She has successfully litigated hundreds of brachial plexus cases across the country. Throughout her career, she has advocated for children and families in states including Massachusetts, Maine, Wisconsin, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Tennessee, Washington, and Oklahoma.

Marlie believes that every family and child that has been injured due to no fault of their own deserves to have a voice. Families and children that have suffered birth trauma are often left in the dark and sent home without any explanation other than – well these things happen. As a mother herself, Marlie has a great appreciation for the confusion and concern that the parents of children injured at birth face. As a practitioner, she aims to comfort and accompany families during this difficult time—while advocating aggressively in court on behalf of injured children and their families.

Marlie earned her undergraduate degree from Boston University in philosophy and cultural gender studies. Marlie went on to receive her law degree from New England Law Boston, where she served as an Ambassador for the Student Bar Association and was inducted into the Phi Alpha Delta Law Fraternity.

Before opening her own practice, Marlie worked at Kenneth M. Levine & Associates, a nationally recognized birth injury firm, for a decade honing her skills in the courtroom and learning the medicine of obstetrical birth injuries.

Marlie has been a guest speaker at the United Brachial Plexus Camp and the New England Brachial Plexus Group Family Day. Marlie was a co-speaker with Kenneth M. Levine & Associates at the AAJ Brachial Plexus Seminar where she discussed attacking ACOG’s Neonatal Brachial Plexus Palsy pathophysiology and causation theory.

Marlie’s pro bono work includes representing clients in family law and landlord-tenant cases for the Volunteer Lawyers Project, along with representing minor clients in immigration status actions through Kids in Need of Defense (KIND).

When not in the office, you can find Marlie enjoying the outdoors with her family hiking and skiing.

I founded Caminero Law to help injured individuals and their loved ones receive the compensation they deserve. I’ve witnessed many people in the minority communities be taken advantage of by the insurance companies after being injured due to the negligence of another person. Navigating through the legal process after an accident can be daunting and I am here to make that process easier. I will not only take charge of your case but also educate you along the way to make you feel empowered. I take great personal pride in providing passionate, caring, personalized service to each of my clients.

Where other firms don’t pick up your phone calls or speak your language, I separate myself by focusing on the needs of each client and my motto has always been to “treat clients like family.”

Jennifer Felipe is a trial attorney with experience practicing in both state and federal courts. Her practice focuses on all aspects of personal injury and construction matters.

Kristen Gyolai, the owner of The Law Office of Kristen Gyolai & Lure of Law.

By day, I help injured workers obtain medical and wage loss benefits in work comp claims so they don’t lose their livelihoods.

I have been practicing law since 2013. I started my career at a high-volume law firm. By 2018 I was feeling burnt out. I knew I needed change but I didn’t know what that meant. After months of contemplation I decided to start my own law firm AND I HAVE NOT LOOKED BACK. As in, I really, really love it.

After I started my firm, other attorneys began flocking to me for support and encouragement when they were looking to start their own firms. I started Lure of Law as a way to show other attorneys how possible it is to start your own firm.

Been there. Done that. Survived and thrived. In 1998 Storey Jones married a technology entrepreneur. By 2001 his company had executed a successful IPO and then an accounting scandal brought everything crashing down leaving her in a highly complex seven-year legal quagmire that included every unimaginable financial and emotional challenge including a protracted high-conflict divorce and custody battle. Though she lost everything including her home, possessions, savings & retirement, she gained a purpose. She recognized the glaring chasm between the human experience of divorce and the legal system; she developed a new business model as a divorce consultant to assist men and women in becoming far more informed, prepared and supported as they navigate their own unique processes. She also worked closely with divorce legal teams to help their clients be better prepared participants in their own divorce. After well over a decade as a divorce consultant in the San Francisco Bay area, Storey has now leveraged that experience to build the first holistic end-to-end platform for divorce to bring innovation and technology to an outdated system.
