Have you ever hesitated to get help you really need because you weren’t sure you could communicate what exactly it was you needed?
I know what that’s like.
Though I was born in the United States, I grew up in Mexico with my parents. At age 9, my family moved back to the United States.
Suddenly we went from having what we needed and being able to get what we didn’t have to not having basic essentials and relying on other people to communicate for us.
Though we had many kind people who helped us, it was still difficult to do everything – talk to doctors, find items in the grocery store, figure out which stores sold items we needed, and so on.
After working hard to learn English in school, I was able to interpret for my mom which made many things easier.
Today, I do the same for others. I help people communicate their needs and worries to attorneys so they can get the legal help they need. I know what it’s like to worry about not being heard or understood, and my goal is to help others avoid that frustration.
Erica’s Story: A Life Built on Faith, Family, and Fighting for What Matters
For more than a decade, Erica poured her heart into teaching — shaping young minds in the classroom while raising a growing family at home. But after the arrival of her fifth child, she felt a new calling — one that combined her lifelong love for people with her desire to make a difference beyond the classroom.
Adopted as a toddler, Erica has always believed that every life is precious and purposeful. That belief didn’t just shape her personal story — it shaped her passion. Today, she serves as Policy Director for Louisiana Right to Life, where she advocates for the unborn and supports families facing life-changing decisions.
Driven by that same passion for justice and compassion, Erica went back to school — this time, law school. Balancing motherhood, advocacy, and late-night study sessions wasn’t easy, but it strengthened her conviction that determination and faith can overcome just about anything.
Now, as an attorney at Inzina Law Firm, Erica uses those same qualities — patience, empathy, and grit — to help families navigate the difficult aftermath of serious accidents. Whether it’s protecting the rights of injury victims or guiding a client through one of the hardest seasons of their life, Erica approaches every case with the same care she gives her own family.
For Erica, law isn’t just a career — it’s a continuation of her calling: to stand up for those who can’t, to protect the vulnerable, and to show that compassion and strength can coexist.
And when she’s not in the office, you’ll usually find her managing a household full of laughter, Legos, and a husband who swears he’s still the fun parent.
