My practice is dedicated to defending people accused of crimes in Austin and throughout Central Texas.  I handle all misdemeanor and felony cases, including DWI/ DUI charges, drug cases, traffic tickets, and assaults (including family violence charges).

While there, I competed in and won 1st place (twice) in an international creative problem solving competition.

My goal is to help my clients achieve a respectful divorce that best positions my clients to be able to function with the ex-spouse/partner in the future.  Civil discourse leads to civil proceedings.  I am a child of divorced parents; and I have been through my own divorce. I bring a perspective to the table that embraces possibility and peace rather than burning bridges that will have to be crossed again.. No one comes to the decision to divorce easily.  When the difficult decision is made, it then becomes time to pick your battles wisely; particularly if children are involved. Divorce is expensive – monetarily, emotionally, spiritually, and physically.  Getting a pound of flesh to get a pound of flesh does nothing other than pay for my next vacation instead of yours. Once a parent, always a parent – keep the focus clear.. It is very common for a client going through a divorce to get so wrapped-up in the other that emotions take up too much real estate in the mind and body – and, many times, justifiably so.  However, one of my jobs as a counselor at law is to help my client remember that drinking this “poison” and believing that, in so doing, the someone/something not drinking the poison will feel its effects hurts only my client.. There is a better way. Let me show you.

My firm handles catastrophic injury cases throughout Texas and we also specialize in representing military families who have been catastrophically injured at military hospitals around the country.  Our firm is humbled to represent so many military familes and veterans across the United States and in doing so we have achieved three of the largest individual verdicts and two of the largest individual settlements in the history of the federal tort claims act (FTCA).. I have successfully litigated cases in Texas, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, North Carolina, New York, Nevada, Oregon, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington D.C.. Specialties: Litigation and trial of catastrophic injury cases in Texas and around the country in state and federal courts.  Cases include birth injuries (hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy; cerebral palsy; shoulder dystocia), spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, traumatic brain injuries, failure to diagnose cancer, wrongful death, and other serious permanent injury cases.

My family always jokes, ‘the legal gene is in her blood.’ I grew up in the courtroom, often going to work with my parents. One of my earliest life memories is watching juvenile court with my dad who was a prosecutor at the time and is now a state district judge. My mom was a court coordinator and has undoubtedly taught me as much law as my dad has. Ever since that day in juvenile court, I have dreamed of helping people in the same way they have. My maternal grandfather was an incredible Austin, Texas defense attorney and was partners in a firm with my uncle. They always fought the good, honest fight for the underdog and instilled in me to do the same. My paternal grandfather taught law at the University of Texas. It really is in my blood.. I graduated from Texas A&M University (WHOOP!) with a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology. I then went on to get my JD from St. Mary’s University School of Law in San Antonio, Texas. There I was Chair of the Board of Advocates and an Editorial Member for The Scholar: St. Mary’s Law Review on Race and Social Justice. Advocating for others and social justice are hand in hand very important to me.. I was born in Austin and grew up in Bastrop, Texas. I am always down for adventure and a good hike. In my free time you can find me walking around town with my dog and cheering on the Aggies.

My areas of practices are listed above.  I provide representation for both plaintiffs and defendants in all such actions.  My focus is on helping people in difficult situations and trying to find a way to resolve issues before the become legal problems when possible.  As such, I never charge for my first consultation with a client because it isn't fair for me to charge you if I don't even know if I can help you yet.. I practice in all the state and federal courts of Texas, Arkansas, and Tennessee.  I specifically practice in the Northern, Eastern, Southern, and Western Districts of Texas; the Eastern and Western Districts of Arkansas; and the Eastern, Middle, and Western Districts of Tennessee.  In addition, I practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth, Sixth, and Eighth Circuits.  During the course of my working life, I have negotiated millions of dolars in settlements and other contracted business by finding ways to resolve difficult cases without the need for unnecessary litigation.. My clients are always my top priority in every representation.  I know how to get business done and bring that ability to every case I work.
