Careful preparation and responsive communication are central to Shaza Hussein’s approach to client service. An attorney in Kreis Enderle’s Portage office, Shaza focuses her practice on business law, trusts and estates, and health care law. She helps clients understand their legal options and keeps them informed as their matters progress toward their goals.

Before joining the firm full-time, Shaza worked as a law clerk at Kreis Enderle, assisting with shareholder and asset purchase agreements, commercial contracts, and corporate structuring and real estate conveyancing matters. She also gained experience reviewing contracts and researching regulatory issues as a legal extern at Carle Health.

Shaza’s interest in law began in an undergraduate course on the legal aspects of healthcare administration. Drawn to the legal questions underlying healthcare operations, she pursued that interest throughout law school while broadening her focus to business and other transactional matters.

Shaza earned her law degree, cum laude, from the University of Illinois College of Law and her Bachelor of Science in Health Services Management, with high distinction, from Indiana University Northwest. During law school, she helped organize community service projects and blood drives with the Women’s Law Society.

Born and raised in Indiana, Shaza now lives in southwest Michigan with her husband. Outside the office, she enjoys spending time with family, watching movies, traveling, and practicing Pilates.
