Experience
Originally from Cumberland, Maryland, Prof. Osterbind is co-founder of Osterbind Law, PLLC. She uses the extensive trial experience she gained as a prosecutor to help injured people in the greater Lynchburg area.
Prof. Osterbind moved to Virginia to attend Liberty University. A history buff with teaching aspirations, she fell in love with Virginia and later enrolled in Liberty Law’s inaugural law school class, graduating in 2007. She went on to work at the Bedford County Commonwealth Attorney’s office, where she had interned during law school. From there, she moved to the City of Lynchburg Commonwealth Attorney’s office. In both locations, she tried hundreds upon hundreds of cases ranging from minor traffic offenses to serious violent crimes, such as malicious wounding and attempted murder—as well as a case of severe neglect that resulted in death.
Prof. Osterbind has taught both undergraduate and law school classes at Liberty University and has stayed up to date with developments in Virginia law. In her spare time, she loves spending time with her husband and four children, and she enjoys reading, particularly books about business and history.
