About Kaitlin
Kaitlin DeCrescente built her legal foundation at the University of North Dakota, where she completed a B.A. in English and Communication in 2011. She went on to earn her J.D. from Washington and Lee University School of Law in 2016. Those classroom years set the stage for a career that has crossed state lines and blended rural practice with general civil work.
She began practicing in 2016 at Furuseth, Olson & Evert, entering the profession shortly after law school. The following year she moved to Pippin Law Office, where she added more hands-on experience in client counseling and case work. In 2018 she accepted a partnership role at Neff Law, PC. That move marked a shift into firm leadership and a deeper involvement in matters that affect families and small businesses in agricultural communities.
Over time DeCrescente expanded the geographic scope of her practice. She holds memberships in the State Bar of North Dakota (since 2016), the State Bar of Montana (since 2017) and the State Bar of Texas (as a lawyer since 2023). She is also a member of the Upper Missouri Bar Association and the American Bar Association. Those memberships reflect a practice that spans the Upper Plains and into Texas, allowing her to handle issues that cross state borders.
Her credentials include a Farm Succession Coordinator certification from the International Farm Transition Network. That training complements work often seen in regional practices: succession planning, transfer of farm and ranch operations, and the legal mechanics that support multi-generational transitions. DeCrescente’s background in English and communication informs how she explains technical options to clients. She combines document drafting and litigation preparedness, depending on what a case requires.
Today she practices at Neff, Eiken & Neff, PC, where her role grew out of the partnership begun at Neff Law, PC. She manages matters for agricultural families, helps with estate and business planning related to farm transitions, and handles other civil matters tied to regional commerce. Her current practice focuses on farm succession planning, estate work, and related civil legal services.
