Oliver has always been up to any challenge, possessing an innate curiosity that called into question what is just from a young age. Her parents can attest to her drive and argumentative side, recalling her tenacity throughout her early school years. Being someone who constantly seeks personal and societal expansion, law was the only logical option for Oliver. She formed a relationship with the court system during her college years, receiving her Juris Doctor from the University of Detroit Mercy. While in school she began her legal work assisting a judge at Oakland County’s Circuit Court. It was there she acquired the confidence to tackle cases head on, rather than alongside another firm.

Oliver is well suited to handle with experience, effectiveness, and efficiency the legal needs of clients in matters pertaining to product liability, class action, personal injury, dispute resolution, criminal defense, mass torts, employment, business, antitrust, etc. ​ Oliver understands and functions well in the business and litigation landscape.

She has been involved in numerous cases that have sparked national and international interest.

Having experienced and witnessed gender discrimination amongst the legal system, Oliver has been an innovative leader inspiring diversity across the legal field. She is outspoken on the topic, going as far as to mail the court appointed to an MDL (Multidistrict Litigation) when women attorneys were not only failing to be appointed regular leads, but also not being sought for large MDL’s that directly related to women’s health issues, such as contraceptives.
