Andrea L. LeGendre is running for Genesee County Probate Judge bringing 25 years of courtroom experience, a record of fairness, and a deep commitment to the families and individuals this court serves.
“Because Families Deserve a Thoughtful Judge...”
Meet Andrea
Probate court handles some of the most personal moments in a family's life a loved one's illness, a child in need of protection, a guardian for someone who can no longer speak for themselves.
These decisions deserve a judge who listens carefully, knows the law deeply, and understands what's at stake for real families.
Andrea LeGendre has spent 25 years in Genesee County courts doing exactly that work. As an Assistant County Prosecutor and Bureau Chief, she has overseen probate, family, and felony matters: including guardianships, child protection, elder abuse, and mental health proceedings.
She is running for this role because she is ready for it, and because Genesee County families deserve steady, experienced judgment on the bench.
