Renate Petters
Paralegal
Growing up across multiple countries before settling in Colorado at age eight, Renate Petters learned early how to adapt quickly and connect with people from all walks of life. She carried that natural adaptability into her studies at Augusta University, earning a psychology degree with plans for youth education. Her path shifted when a seasoned paralegal neighbor of thirty years recognized Renate’s unique mix of steady composure, keen perceptiveness, and sharp analytical thinking, and encouraged her to bring those strengths into the legal world.
After earning her paralegal certificate and becoming a certified Notary Public, Renate mastered the intricacies of civil litigation, probate, and estate planning before bringing her operational experience to Jones Law Firm. When clients reach out during high-stress divorces, custody disputes, or estate proceedings, Renate serves as a stabilizing, highly effective partner. Taking the time to truly listen, she uses her background in psychology to help clients process their stress, converting overwhelming situations into clear, strategic case details as she expands her focus into family law and adoption.
What you might not know: Being raised alongside six siblings in a vibrant household, Renate’s weekends are dedicated to slowing down. She recharges through quiet creative outlets, training in the gym, or relaxing on the couch with her two dogs, Jasper and Grayson.
