Ravenna Attorney Andrew Popp focuses on two fields of law: Elder Law and Estate Planning. He is results-oriented, relying on his exceptional legal knowledge and successful litigation techniques to achieve results.
Andrew obtained his bachelor’s degree from the University of South Florida. He then attended Stetson Law School, where he acquired his Juris Doctor with a concentration in advocacy.
While at Stetson, he received numerous awards, including the Doyle Conflict Resolution Inc. Top Grade Award and the Leadership Development certificate.
Upon graduation, Andrew served as an Assistant State Attorney. He handled criminal cases from initial investigation through trial and appeals and prosecuted hundreds of misdemeanor and felony cases. He gained extensive first and second chair trial experience in both bench and jury trials.
After leaving the prosecutor’s office, Andrew decided to dedicate his career to assisting clients with Elder Law Issues. Motivated by his passion for defending his clients’ interests, he acquired an in-depth knowledge of wills, trusts, probate, estates, and Medicaid planning.
Andrew is well versed in the various techniques available to protect his client’s assets from being taken away upon entering a nursing home.
He has seen far too many examples where families have waited too long to set their affairs in order, and the damage it can cause. He provides Portage County residents with advice on proper planning concerning their hard-earned assets.

- Q. Why did a judge place someone as nonbondable for some traffic violation
- A: Most likely yes. Failing to appear for a Court hearing can result in that.
- Q. My mom has stage 4 lung cancer. I am her only living relative. How do I plan for estate, financial, health care, etc….
- A: I'm sorry for the situation you find yourself in. An estate planning attorney will be able to assist you throughout the process. The lawyers on this forum are not permitted to say, "sure I can help, call me" for example. You need to initiate direct contact with the attorney. As for what needs to be done, it depends on the details. You need to get Healthcare and financial powers of attorney, maybe check and ensure the Will is up to date with current law, look at real estate titles, bank accounts, investments, motor vehicles etc. For specific answers a detailed analysis is needed. Best of luck.
- Q. I got a summons to court for shooting guns on public hunting land in Ohio. What kind of trouble am I looking at.
- A: It depends on the specific charge being brought. You citation should state the code section under which you are being charged. Look that up and it will reference the level of the offense and refer you to the penalty statute. Pull that up and it will tell you the penalties you are subject to. Best of luck.
