Biography

Ramona Gau graduated Magna Cum Laude from Hannibal LaGrange University. It was actually a very specific, negative incident during her time that helped her make the decision between being a police officer and being a lawyer. Seeking to live out the concept her dear Mother instilled in her, that if "you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life", Ramona went on to the University of Missouri- Columbia Law School. There she had the distinguished honor of placing in the Moot Court Top 10.

Because she understands that attorneys typically meet people going through especially hard times, she lives by the Golden Rule, to treat others the way you want to be treated.

As a Criminal Defense Attorney, one advantage Ramona has is her time spent as a prosecuting attorney. This gives her the unique understanding and insight of how the prosecutor may build their case, making her a formidable opponent.

When she's not practicing law, she's enjoying her family; most notably cheering on her two daughters as they play basketball.
