kate chandler

Kate has been a part of the Central Oregon legal community since 1993, with experience as a court clerk, legal assistant, escrow and 1031 exchange assistant, and 11 years as a probate paralegal.

Kate started Ponderosa Fiduciary Services in 2019. During her time as a probate paralegal she came to realize there was a huge need in Central Oregon for a company that would work with clients doing everything from helping with simple bill paying and coordination of services up to guardianships and conservatorships; and, if necessary, complete service to her clients by administering their estate to insure their final wishes are fulfilled. She enjoys the variety of work as a professional fiduciary and especially tailoring to the special needs and circumstances of her clients.

Kate is a third-generation Central Oregonian, returning to live in Redmond in 1993. She has been married for over 30 years, has two adult children, and enjoys gardening, camping, fishing, cooking, and spending time with her family. She also enjoys traveling and has been in all fifty states.

Education and Certifications:

National Certified Guardian Center for Guardianship Certification – Harrisburg Pennsylvania

Bachelor of Arts, Social Work Eastern Nazarene College – Quincy Massachusetts
