shelby@werge.law
Shelby is the Firm Director for Werge & Corbin Law Group. She attended the University of Arkansas and holds a bachelor’s degree in Biology. After college, she gained experience in Administration, Marketing, and Human Resources at a variety of start up businesses.
It was luck that Shelby found herself in the legal world, which instantaneously sparked a desire to assist in helping people solve their legal problems, and the aspiration to learn more about the fascinating and ever-changing world of law. She began with attorney and partner, Tom Werge, in the year 2019. Since then, she has grown into multiple roles with the firm alongside her many amazing colleagues. As firm director, she oversees the day-to-day operations, the business goals and objectives, budgets and financial activities, human resources, marketing, and business development initiatives.
Shelby spent her early years after college living in the Pacific Northwest, where she learned to fly fish, crab hunt, and how to ride a dirt bike. She always loves a good day outdoors spent with friends and/or her husband, Riley. And her favorite time spent is early in the morning before anyone is awake with her coffee mug in one hand and a good book in the other.
Shelby is involved with many non-profit organizations, including the Alzheimer’s Association, American Red Cross, Women’s shelters, and local food banks.
In her spare time, Shelby can be found either at her pilates gym, cooking, fly fishing, skiing, traveling, tending to her house plants, or relaxing with her husband, Riley, and their cat, Stevie.
