GROWING UP AT FINDERSON LAW LEARNING EVERY ASPECT OF THE PROFESSION.

Delaney's journey at Finderson Law began long before she attended law school or passed the bar examination. In the summer of 2016, she joined the firm as an administrative assistant, helping with client correspondence, filing, and day-to-day office support. What started as an opportunity to learn more about the legal profession quickly became a passion for helping others through some of life's most challenging situations.

Over the next several years, Delaney worked in a variety of roles throughout the firm, including Receptionist, Medical Records Specialist, Adoption Paralegal, and Legal Clerk. Each position provided a unique perspective on how legal matters impact clients and their families. From answering phones and scheduling appointments to gathering medical records and assisting with case preparation, this firsthand experience guided her today.

By the time Delaney became an attorney in 2024, she had already spent nearly a decade learning the profession from the ground up. That experience continues to shape her approach to practicing law today. Having worked closely with clients throughout every stage of the legal process, she understands the importance of communication, compassion, and practical guidance. Her journey through the firm provides a perspective few attorneys possess and reinforces her commitment to serving every client with professionalism and respect.

Throughout law school and her legal training, Delaney developed a strong interest in legal research, advocacy, and public policy. Her academic writing reflects a commitment to exploring complex legal issues while seeking practical solutions that benefit individuals, families, and communities.

BEYOND THE OFFICE FAMILY, CREATIVITY, AND COMMUNITY.

Outside of the office, Delaney enjoys spending time with her husband, family, friends, and her dachshund, Pepper. She has always had a passion for creativity and enjoys ceramics, painting, reading, and working on puzzles whenever she has free time.

She also enjoys playing softball, occasionally umpiring games, and staying active in her community. Delaney hopes to travel more throughout her life while continuing to build meaningful relationships with family and friends. 

One of the things Delaney values most about Finderson Law is the people she works alongside every day. Reflecting on the relationships she has built over the years, Delaney says, "I couldn't ask for a better group of people to work with. They've been there for nearly every important milestone in my life, from weddings and graduations to community events and fundraisers." The strong bonds shared within the firm continue to make Finderson Law a place where she feels supported, encouraged, and inspired to serve others.

One of the causes closest to her heart is serving as a Guardian Ad Litem, helping ensure children's voices are heard when they need an advocate. Whether inside or outside the courtroom, Delaney remains committed to helping others and making a positive impact wherever she can.
