From a young age, Victoria Stepien planned to become an attorney, always imagining she would practice family law. But after interning and clerking at personal injury firms during law school, she discovered a passion for helping people rebuild their lives after life-altering injuries.

After law school graduation and admission to the bar, she joined the firm’s personal injury department as an associate attorney in the Winston-Salem office.

In injury law, Victoria has found a profession that fits her out-of-the-box thinking style and analytical mind. More importantly, it allows her to help people who have experienced accidents and injuries that can affect every part of their lives. The most rewarding part of her job is attaining the best possible outcomes for her clients, helping them come through these challenging times.

Victoria’s other past professional work includes an internship with the Gray Legal Group, where she gained experience in a variety of personal injury cases, including auto, truck and motorcycle accidents; wrongful death and third-party liability cases. 

Following her graduation from Rutgers, she was a clinical research recruiter at Actalent, an engineering and sciences services company and an administrative assistant for a financial advisor. She also has experience working as a server in restaurants, including The Village Tavern in Greensboro.

Victoria began modeling for Ford Models when she was 14. She was later signed to Wilhelmina agency and modeled for them during college. In fact, her modeling career ultimately led Victoria to North Carolina.
