About

Margaret Kay Herring has been an integral part of the legal profession since 1989, when she began her journey as a temporary receptionist at her father's law firm. This initial role quickly evolved into a full-time position as a paralegal, allowing her to gain invaluable experience in the field. Committed to advancing her career, Margaret enrolled in law school in 1996, attending evening classes while continuing her work as a paralegal. She graduated from law school and successfully passed the bar exam, officially becoming an attorney in 2003. In the same year, Margaret and her father partnered to establish Herring & Herring, APC, marking a significant milestone in their professional relationship that has flourished for over 26 years. Her dedication to the firm and her clients is evident in her comprehensive understanding of probate law, where she provides compassionate and knowledgeable guidance. Margaret’s unique background, from her beginnings as a receptionist to her current role as a partner, reflects her commitment to the legal profession and her deep-rooted connection to her family's legacy in law. Based in Coronado, California, she continues to serve clients with the same passion and integrity that have defined her career.
