Raven Spencer

Raven Spencer focuses her practice on domestic relations and criminal defense throughout the State of Ohio and extensively in Allen County (Lima), Shelby County (Sidney), and neighboring courts in western Ohio. Raven's practice is grounded in two areas that demand precision strategy and deep understanding of how real issues affect real lives. Domestic and criminal matters often involve high stakes, complex facts, and intensely personal circumstances. Raven brings keen attention to detail, thoughtful preparation, and a commitment to understanding the full context of each client’s situation. Whether navigating family disputes or defending individual rights, Raven's goal is to provide clear guidance, strong advocacy, and solutions tailored to the needs of each case.


Raven earned her Juris Doctor from Ohio Northern Pettit College of Law. Before law school, she received her Bachelor's Degree in Criminology from The Ohio State University. Formerly from Tiffin, Raven resides in Lima, Ohio.
