About Caroline Ortego

HI, I’M CAROLINE, Estate planning and probate attorney, mother and coffee lover. I was born and raised in Louisiana. In 2008, I graduated from LSU Law and moved to Texas the very next year.

My favorite part of being a Texan is the Houston Rodeo and I sure get a kick out of wearing cowboy boots in public without raising eyebrows or looking out of place!

When I was young, I was the girl who was always striving for a solution. I’m a puzzle person and I’m often intrigued by a difficult problem that requires critical thinking to resolve. 

During my first year of law school, those qualities were put to the test. Hurricane Katrina had left the New Orleans area devastated, so I joined attorneys, and other law students, as we volunteered in the recovery effort.
