LAW OFFICE MANAGER
Andrea Bryant
​
Andrea grew up in the Boston area and vacationed in the Flathead Valley while her children were growing up. She moved here with both her sons in 2012 for the healthier, more active lifestyle and community feeling that Montana offers. After moving to Montana, a friend sustained a Traumatic Brain Injury without having a Living Will, Durable Power of Attorney and Durable Power of Attorney for Healthcare. As there was no means to help with vital decision making, Andrea witnessed, first-hand, the consequences of not having these critical documents. She now works with Wagner Law Firm to ensure that others are not caught in the same dire circumstances. Recently, she been involved with a task force to help develop a brain injury and disabilities facility to the Flathead Valley that plans to break ground in 2021.
Andrea has 24 years of experience running her own successful small business. Her background and education are in economics and finance. She managed an Edward Jones Financial office locally before moving to Wagner Law Firm.
