Aaron Pankratz, Esq.
Personal Experience
Law is Aaron’s second career. Before he became an attorney, Aaron worked for 25 years in nonprofit human services. His work included advocacy for college students, senior citizens, people with disabilities, street children in Africa, and children in foster care. In addition to the intrinsic rewards that come from helping others, his work offered opportunities for adventure, including spending a year in Zimbabwe and cycling from Santa Barbara to Sacramento in four days.
Aaron saw the power of effective legal advocacy in resolving conflicts through his work with the Central Coast Commission for Senior Citizens and CASA of Santa Barbara. This inspired him to seek a new career in law. He graduated with honors from the Santa Barbara and Ventura Colleges of Law. He volunteered with the Conflict Solutions Center and the Legal Assistance Foundation of San Luis Obispo, Family Law Program.
Outside of practicing law, Aaron is an avid cyclist, an amateur chef, and a fan of all his kids’ sports teams.
