Vanesa Pančić - Attorney of Law

I am originally from Croatia (former Yugoslavia). I obtained my Bachelor’s of Law at the University of Split, College of Law in Split, Croatia. After graduation, I attended the Central European University (CEU) in Budapest, Hungary on a full ride where I obtained a Master’s Degree in Comparative Constitutional Law. Shortly after CEU graduation, I was offered a second full ride scholarship from the Open Society Institute to study at the University of Utah, College of Law, where I obtained my second Master’s Degree in Environmental Law.

I obtained Juris Doctor (JD) degree at the University of Utah, College of Law. After passing Oregon State Bar in 2001, I practiced immigration law. I started to practice primarily bankruptcy law in 2003. I have represented hundreds of clients since 2003. Bankruptcy law is my only business.

When not practicing law, I enjoy spending time with my family, studying foreign languages and fitness. At present I am fluent in English, Spanish, Croatian (Serbian and Bosnian). I am currently studying Russian language with the hope of becoming fluent soon.
