About
Tsion Mehari is our firm’s senior paralegal and a very valued member of our team. She received her associates degree in paralegal study from Metropolitan Community College and is in the process of obtaining her bachelor at Missouri Western State University. The firm was fortunate to have Tsion assigned to do her internship at our firm for the completion of her paralegal coursework in 2008 and she has been an essential member of our team ever since that time. Tsion was born and raised in Ethiopia and is able to speak three languages!
Tsion has more than thirteen years of experience in helping the clients of Pingel Family Law get through their difficult family law issues. Attorney Pingel often tells clients that Tsion being a part of their legal team is one of the best assets and selling points for the firm. With Tsion’s significant experience, she often has creative and invaluable suggestions, problem solving ideas and is very capable in organizing trial preparation, outlines, identifying and prioritizing evidence for trials, among other things. When a client has an opportunity to have significant work in their case completed at half of the attorney’s hourly rate, the firm is able to give our clients a significant value and best ensure and maximize the use of your limited legal resources.
Tsion will not only work tirelessly on your case to meet a client’s needs, but she enjoys the relationships she’s formed with our clients over the years. Family law matters can be tough and emotional and Tsion prides herself in being accessible to clients, keeping them informed throughout the process and ensuring each case progresses consistent with a client’s goals. Tsion is also the firm’s office manager and plays an essential role in supporting the operations of the firm behind the scenes!
Tsion is happily married to her husband Dawit and enjoys various volunteering and philanthropic opportunities. Attorney Pingel feels blessed to consider Tsion among her best friends after many years working with one another and feels that Tsion plays an invaluable role in ensuring the clients of Pingel Family Law have their needs met. Tsion can often be found cooking and taking care of her large extended family, and she enjoys travelling, trying new restaurants in Kansas City and health and fitness.
