Since high school, Kate held positions in both her father's chiropractic office and law firm, providing her with a unique dual perspective on patient injuries and the application of accident laws. Despite her early exposure, Kate explored various areas of the law in her youth. In 2007, she established her own firm, specializing in navigating Florida's Lemon Law.
