Attorney Yvonne Olusi-Ogadi, also known as Attorney YO, continues to follow her passion for helping others, as a nurse and today as an Estate Planning & Probate Attorney. Prior to joining The Gonzalez Law Group, Yvonne practiced in the area of Elder Law where she assisted families and individuals with estate planning and provided guidance and strategies for generational wealth protection planning, as well as assisting families with long term care planning and Medicaid.

Prior to becoming an attorney, Yvonne was in the nursing profession for over 24 years and continues to be a Proud Registered Nurse. She attended the nursing program at Texas Woman’s University (Houston). Over the span of her nursing career, she practiced in many areas: CV-ICU, Med-surg, Administration, Home Care, Healthcare Technology, and her favorite Geriatrics.

As a Home Care Nurse, she was in the community visiting elderly and disabled clients in their homes and quickly realized the need for a voice for our Elders was great, due to the gaps in the healthcare system that were failing to meet their needs. Yvonne decided to become that voice, and attended South Texas College of Law Houston, obtaining her law degree in May of 2021.

Her professional and civic activities include membership in numerous local and national organizations including: Texas Bar Association, Houston Bar Association, Houston Lawyers Association, Hispanic Bar Association of Houston, Fort Bend County Black Nurses Association Inc., Texas Bar College and the National Black Nurses Association (NBNA) to name a few. She currently serves on the Board of Directors of Destined to Live and the Make A Mark Foundation, the latter of which she founded in memorial of her brother, Mark-Anthony P. Olusi, who passed away in 2008 due to heart transplant complications.

In her free time, Yvonne enjoys traveling, volunteering, attending concerts, and spending time with her family.
