Vanessa has deep family roots in Marion County, West Virginia, and has not only the experience needed to assist you in family law matters (divorce, paternity, child custody, and mediations), adoptions, and personal injury cases, but also, Vanessa has a vast working knowledge of the West Virginia court system. Prior to attending law school, Vanessa pursued an education degree with English and journalism specializations at Fairmont State. Then she went on to West Virginia University to get her master's degree in English. Vanessa then decided to attend law school after two people from her graduate school had gone to law school. The rest, as they say, is history! Vanessa graduated from WVU College of Law in 1997 and worked at a couple of law firms (McLaughlin & Curry and then Manchin & Aloi) before starting her own, The Law Offices Of Vanessa Lynn Rodriguez.
