Olivia R. Ponce
Minor & Jester, P.C.I began my legal career as a prosecutor in my hometown of Marshall, Texas. During that time, I gained valuable experience handling cases involving juvenile and domestic violence crimes. Simultaneously, I started assisting family and friends with wills, real estate transactions, and entity documents. It was during this period that I discovered my passion for these practice areas, leading me to shift my focus to estate planning and probate matters in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. I also briefly worked at a title company, further enhancing my practical experience. Continuing my commitment to serving clients and advancing my legal knowledge, I expanded my practice to include complex trust and guardianship matters, both transactional and litigated. My multifaceted skill set and dedication to serving others allow me to be trusted advocate for my clients. Outside of work I am active on the board of Journey to Dream (non-profit) and enjoy singing jazz, cooking, and spending time with my extensive family.
