Roberts earned a B.S. from the University of Missouri in 1987 and a J.D. from Saint Louis University School of Law in 1990.

Roberts represents plaintiffs in cases involving preventable harm across several areas of personal injury law. Her matters can involve negligent drivers, health care providers, nursing facilities, pharmaceutical products, medical devices, and other defective products. Because her practice is devoted to litigation, her work includes investigating claims, developing evidence, consulting appropriate professionals, evaluating damages, negotiating with defendants and insurers, and preparing disputed matters for trial.
