Stephanie Nygard
Medical & Legal Liaison, AZ Burn LawyersBurn survivor • Advocate • Voice for Justice. Stephanie is often the first person our burn clients talk to — not as a lawyer, but as someone who has lived it.
Stephanie knows firsthand the physical, emotional, and financial toll a burn injury takes — not only on the survivor, but on the whole family. After a traumatic fire-related accident, she spent weeks in the ICU and went through multiple surgeries. She turned to Wade & Nysather for legal help during one of the hardest times of her life, and found not just attorneys, but allies.
Today she is the firm’s Medical & Legal Liaison. She supports new clients through the emotional early stages, helps families understand what the medical and legal process will look like, and stays a trusted, encouraging voice through every stage of a case that can take months or years.
Stephanie is deeply involved in Arizona’s burn recovery community. She serves on the board of directors of Changed by Fire, attends burn symposiums alongside the surgeons and medical teams who treat burn patients, works with survivor organizations such as the Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors, and shows up in person at community events like the Arizona Burn Foundation’s Smoke Alarm Walk.
Her mission is simple: make sure no burn survivor feels alone — and that justice is within reach.
