Lisa Marie Unger

Raised in Southern California, my years of dance and a love for the outdoors instilled in me discipline, creativity, and perseverance. Curiosity about the world gradually developed into a strong interest in the events and ideas that shaped our nation’s history. I earned my bachelor’s degree in U.S. History from UC Berkeley and a master’s degree in the same field from San Francisco State University. I also completed San Francisco State University’s Paralegal Program before pursuing the Law Office Study Program as my path to becoming an attorney. My interest in legal history and its real-world impact ultimately led me to personal injury law.

I began my legal career at Avrek Law Firm when it was still a small and expanding practice. Through hard work, adaptability, and commitment, I became an integral member of the team. Having worked across every department, including case management and legal operations, I bring a comprehensive understanding of how cases progress and what is required to obtain meaningful outcomes for clients. My experience on both the legal and operational sides of the firm enables me to approach each matter with perspective, empathy, and a focused commitment to justice for the injured.

Outside of my practice, I am actively involved in my community, organizing local events and fairs for a neighborhood nonprofit. Service, connection, and advocacy guide both my professional and personal efforts. I am driven by a sincere desire to help people regain stability and move forward with confidence and dignity.
