About Courtney
Courtney Roller built a path to the law that started in the newsroom. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and Mass Communication from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2010. After a few years that included graduate study, she completed her Juris Doctor at Elon University School of Law in 2013. The combination of journalism and law shaped how she approaches fact-gathering and written advocacy.
She moved into legal practice soon after law school. In 2014 she began working at Roller Law and has been associated with that office since. Her professional memberships include the North Carolina Bar Association, where she has held membership since 2010, and the Davidson County Bar Association, where she has been a member since 2014. Those memberships reflect a steady presence in the state’s legal community.
Courtney is also a Certified Legal Observer through the National Lawyers Guild. That credential ties into public-facing legal work and monitoring of civic events. It is an adjunct to her practice rather than a separate occupation. It indicates experience in documenting events and the practical realities of law in public settings.
Her background in journalism remains visible in how she works. She favors careful document review and clear written communication. Those skills inform client intake, case preparation and courtroom filings. Colleagues describe her approach as methodical and plainspoken. She has continued to apply reporting habits—interviewing witnesses, verifying timelines, tracking records—to the demands of legal matters.
Roller’s timeline in the profession is straightforward. She completed formal legal education in 2013, joined Roller Law as a lawyer in 2014, and has maintained active ties to county and state bar groups since then. The record shows steady professional activity in North Carolina rather than frequent moves between firms or jurisdictions.
She currently practices through Roller Law, handling legal matters in North Carolina.
