ABOUT KAITLIN FRERICH

Kaitlin was born and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where her Midwestern roots shaped a strong work ethic and a passion for justice early on. She earned both her Bachelor of Arts in Political Science, with a concentration in Law and Politics, and her Bachelor of Science in Criminology and Law Studies from Marquette University. Ready to trade snowstorms for sunshine, Kaitlin relocated to Orlando, Florida, where she earned her Juris Doctor from Barry University.

Before joining Wenzel Fenton Cabassa, P.A., Kaitlin served as an Assistant Public Defender in the Ninth Judicial Circuit. In this demanding role, she managed a caseload of more than 200 active criminal cases at any given time, spanning juvenile matters, misdemeanors, felonies, and probation violations.

She conducted hundreds of settlement negotiations, drafted and argued numerous motions, and actively participated in all stages of discovery. Her experience in the courtroom sharpened her litigation skills and reinforced her commitment to fierce, client-centered advocacy.

Outside the office, Kaitlin enjoys traveling, mentoring law students, and soaking up Florida’s beach life whenever she can. She brings the same energy, dedication, and strategic mindset to her practice that she brings to every aspect of her life.

Kaitlin is a zealous advocate who approaches every case with determination, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to achieving the best possible outcomes for her clients.
