About Pamela Olsen
Pamela Olsen has served clients since 1996. From physical resources to relationships, she is passionate about helping people care well for what they have been given.
After earning her law degree at Creighton University, Mrs. Olsen worked for a large, well-established law firm in Nebraska. Over time, she developed interest and experience in several key niches, including agriculture, adoption, and elder law.
Mrs. Olsen loves to teach and is highly engaged in multiple professional organizations. She presents at events and seminars throughout the region on topics like estate planning and long term care planning. In 2021, she completed an extensive application process to become a Fellow of the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel (ACTEC), a highly-regarded organization among estate planning lawyers.
Mrs. Olsen lives in western Nebraska on a farm/ranch with her husband and three sons.
