In this episode, we pass the mic to Kim Lopater to discuss overcoming challenges.
Kimberly is an associate in the Casualty Department where she handles matters involving Personal Injury Protection (PIP) within the Fraud/Special Investigation Practice Group. In May 2015, Kimberly received her Bachelor of Science degree from Florida State University, with a double major in Political Science and International Affairs. Kimberly earned her juris doctor from Stetson University College of Law, where she gained experience handling mortgage foreclosure and bankruptcy disputes as a judicial intern at the Sixth Judicial Circuit in St. Petersburg and the United States Bankruptcy Court in Tampa, and veterans’ appeals to the Department of Veterans Affairs for disability benefits at Stetson Law’s Veterans Law Institute.
Currently, Kimberly is an active member of the Hillsborough Association of Women Lawyers (HAWL) and serves as a member of HAWL’s inaugural Leadership Academy. She also participates as a pro bono attorney for the Wills for Heroes program with the Hillsborough County Bar Association and for the Defending Best Interests Project with the Appellate Practice Section of the Florida Bar and the Guardian Ad Litem program.
Fun fact- Kim became a monthly donor to Tampa Humane Society, Wounded Warriors, and The National Park Foundation after she graduated law school because I wanted to make sure I always had a way to support charitable causes even if I could not commit my own time to help.
