Vollrath Law

by Jeannine Gage

Ten years ago, Vollrath Law, a firm specializing in estate planning, family law, probate, and real estate, was established right here in Oviedo. The partners, sisters Sharon Vollrath and Stephanie Vollrath, pursued law as a career driven by their desire to assist others.

Over the years, their firm has grown and added three more attorneys – which will make an already exceptional law firm  even better.

“We thoughtfully selected our new attorneys to join our team due to their strong alignment with our firm’s fundamental values of excellent and compassionate legal representation,” according to the sisters.

Meet the new attorneys at Vollrath Law:
