PARALEGAL

Whitney Miyamoto is a paralegal at Lanzone Morgan. In addition to her paralegal duties, Whitney often performs daily office tasks and acts as a welcoming and helping figure to newer attorneys or firm staff. Although Whitney is a quiet individual, she is extremely diligent and tenacious with her job.

Whitney grew up in the San Gabriel Valley before she went to college and received her B.A. in Sociology with an option in Criminology from Cal Poly Pomona and her Paralegal Certificate from Pasadena City College. Growing up, Whitney enjoyed playing basketball, hanging out with friends, and traveling with family, whether it be to Hawaii, Mammoth, or just a simple trip to the casino. Living in the SGV area, she’s maintained several close friendships from her childhood years and aspired to either be a basketball player (at 5’0) or in law enforcement when she got older.

She often admired basketball players for being able to play the sport they loved for a career and looked up to law enforcement officials for keeping people safe and ensuring criminals were put behind bars. She also looked up to her older brother for his ability to learn things quickly and his vibrant personality.

Before deciding to work in elder abuse, Whitney interned at the Pomona Court House as part of the JusticeCorps program and also interned at the Jackie Robinson Community Center, where she helped local residents file restraining orders, unlawful detainers and financial assistance for utilities. She also interned at the Orange County Public Defender’s Office interviewing people at the courthouse.

Throughout her career, Whitney believes some of her most notable achievements are establishing loyalty, reliability and good work ethic throughout a highly credited law firm. She also prides herself on making a transition to a more cruelty-free lifestyle in the products she purchases and in her diet. While currently maintaining a Pescatarian diet, she eventually wishes to fully transition to an either vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. In her future, she wants to continue helping neglected animals by opening a sanctuary.

Whitney came to Lanzone Morgan in hopes of finding a career in helping others and believes Lanzone Morgan is truly like no other firm in their hard work and dedication in helping people. She also appreciates the way Lanzone Morgan always strives to do more for their clients.
