Nancy Ervin
Partner
“Growing up on a self-sufficient farm, I appreciate the hard work it takes to put food on the table. There are no days off in the ag industry. Crops and animals need tending Christmas morning just like every other day. I have carried this ‘work comes first’ mentality throughout my career. It is why my clients know they can always count on me to be there for them, to fight for them, no matter what.”
