Stacey L. Ferris

Stacey is a Senior Attorney at GPLG, focusing on probate and fiduciary cases. Her work is driven by a powerful desire to help individuals and families facing estate proceedings matters after the loss of a loved one.

Her career includes leadership and management roles in private practice, where she led complex contract litigation and provided risk and compliance advice. She has also served as senior counsel and data protection officer, overseeing regulatory compliance and privacy issues in the healthcare sector.

Stacey earned her J.D. from the University of Georgia and holds an A.B. with interdisciplinary studies in philosophy, economics, chemistry, and political systems. Outside pure practice, Stacey’s background and academic study abroad reflect her lifelong interest in organized reasoning and public service.

As Stacey puts it, probate law is an opportunity to “really help people and families that are overwhelmed at a very painful moment. It’s a time when everyone can benefit from talking to someone outside the situation who can see things clearly.”

Stacey never loses sight of the fact that what she does today for families in probate affects future generations as well. That’s one of the things that offers her immense satisfaction.

Stacey has 32 years of experience in civil, probate, and litigation law.
