Vicki’s Passion for Helping People
Vicki has always been drawn to the legal field because it allows her to advocate for and help people. Becoming a paralegal was a natural fit, combining her enthusiasm for advocacy with her desire to support clients through difficult times. Prior to joining Warnken, LLC, Vicki worked at a firm with a primary focus on public safety injuries.
Each day at Warnken brings something new for Vicki, but much of her time is spent communicating with clients, defense counsel, insurance carriers, and providers. While she occasionally encounters frustrations with insurance companies that delay benefits, Vicki’s favorite thing about being a workers’ compensation paralegal is helping clients and seeing their smiling faces at the end of their case.
Vicki describes the work environment at Warnken, LLC as highly supportive, with a clear sense of purpose guiding the attorneys’ decisions on which cases to take. This stands in contrast to her previous experiences, where the atmosphere could sometimes feel more competitive or impersonal. She values compassion and honesty, qualities she believes are essential in both people and companies.
With over seven years of experience in workers’ compensation, Vicki aspires to further expand her knowledge and skill set to take on greater responsibilities and make an even bigger impact in this area of law.
Outside of work, Vicki enjoys spending quality time with her family and two pups. She also loves traveling, trying new cuisines, and going to the movies. In 2025, Vicki looks forward to honing her baking skills.
