Office Set Up: Pro-Environment


Lisa Vargo (Attorney), Andrea Logan (Paralegal),
Stacey Romberg (Attorney), and Lori Mason (Office Administrator) 

Stacey is concerned about climate change, and believes that law offices can be structured in a way that lessens the impact on the environment. Accordingly, she maintains a home office, in part to avoid harmful auto emissions resulting from an unnecessary commute. The mail center and conference room used by our office are located within a mile of Stacey's home. Further, Lisa Vargo (Attorney), Andrea Logan (Paralegal) and Lori Mason (Office Administrator) also maintain home offices. Client files are digitally maintained to the greatest extent possible in order to minimize the amount of paper used by the office, and everyone works with the digital files via a secure server. 
 

Lisa Vargo - Attorney

Lisa received her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Idaho, and graduated from the University of Idaho College of Law in 1987.  After law school, Lisa earned a prestigious clerkship with the U.S. District Court, Ninth Circuit. She offers 20 years of solid legal experience and judgment. When not practicing law, Lisa is the busy mother of a young son.
