I am a native Texan providing affordable family and business legal services to the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex and its surrounding counties.. I understand that sometimes clients have to make difficult choices, particularly in family law–related cases, and I strive to educate my clients about the law and its relationship to the specifics of their situation so they can make informed decisions. That is why I offer a free initial consultation.. I sincerely believe that high-quality legal services can be provided at an affordable, reasonable cost.. I earned my Juris Doctor degree in 2010 at the Texas Wesleyan University School of Law, which is now known as the Texas A&M University School of Law. Prior to practicing law, I taught classes in writing and literature at Texas Woman’s University, where I completed the coursework necessary for a doctoral degree in Rhetoric. After I left the TWU, I worked for years as a board-certified medical and scientific editor.. This pre-law education and experience have made me particularly good at drafting documents that are unambiguous and conflict-free. As an editor of highly technical texts, where meanings change with the placement of a comma, I developed a highly honed eye for detail. In addition, I am able to quickly and thoroughly read documents that other attorneys have drafted. I often find mistakes or unintended meanings that other readers have missed.. Many people who have little to no experience with the legal system find the idea of appearing before a judge or jury scaring and threatening. Although I often try to come to agreements outside of a court ruling, I am comfortable in a court environment. My education in Rhetoric, as well as my teaching, has made me adept at constructing messages to fit their particular purpose and reach their intended audience. This makes me a “natural” in the courtroom, where I am called upon to sway a judge’s opinion to get the desired result for my client.. I enjoy being a lawyer and helping my community by serving its legal needs.

I didn’t know I wanted to be an attorney until I went to law school. Now, I can’t imagine doing anything else! I particularly like the practice of family law because it allows me to carefully listen to the details of a client’s individual situation and come up with a unique strategy to help them accomplish their goals. Every case is different, and I enjoy the challenge of coming up with a course of action that will effectively address the concerns of the client and move the case towards a resolution.. For the last several years, I have also taken CPS cases through Court Appointment – representing children or parents when the Department of Family and Protective Services steps in and removes children from their home environment due to allegations of abuse or neglect. I find these cases to be extremely personally satisfying – especially in the role of Attorney Ad Litem when I represent the child or children. In 2019, due to my extensive knowledge, experience, and passion for this area of the law, I applied for and became Board Certified in Child Welfare Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.. I was born and raised in Abilene, Texas. I graduated from Cooper High School and spent a year at Abilene Christian University before transferring to Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. People think I’m crazy, but I loved living in Lubbock! There is just nothing like a West Texas sunset. After college, I moved to Granbury, Texas and commuted to Fort Worth, where I attended Texas Wesleyan University School of Law (now Texas A&M University School of Law). I eventually settled down just west of Fort Worth where I live with my two kids, three cats, and various other foster pets depending on the day.

A lawsuit is, indeed, like a war.  But wise people never go to war without an end goal clearly defined. That's how we focus our emotions, control the costs and win our future.. Trench warfare is horrific, but that's often the nature of lawsuits in family court.. I take the comparison between lawsuits and war seriously.  My grand father Boates was a Canadian infantryman in World War I -- he was gasssed and blind for 30 days after trying to save a mate who was killed. His son, my father, was an American POW in World War II and nearly starved in a German camp.. I am as intrigued by the application of the Art of War, by Sun Tsu, to law, as I am the application of the Taoism of Lao Tsu to life.. Apparently, Sun Tsu and Lao Tsu were not related. But it would be cool if they were.. In this life, I solve problems in any Texas Court -- often, problems not solved by other lawyers.. In 2016-2018, I represented 7 Dads who won primary or equal custody (50:50) for their children.  I love my Dads.. In the same period, I also represented 6 moms who withstood custody challenges from their babies' daddies.  I love my Moms.. I also survived 2 child custody modifications of my own, for my own daughter. I love my daughter, more than anyone.. The parents I represent tend to win, despite the fact that 'winning' isn't one of my ideals, any longer.  Child custody litigation is about a young human's life.  It's tough enough to survive a vacuous culture, silly social programming, and the power struggles of life.. Warring households between the parents we choose (and love) make it tougher.. It's wiser to focus on the little human's future, not our personal ego.. So, these days, I tend to refer-out more cases than I accept, and I certainly charge a lot more than I once did.. But here are a few war stories:  as the 3rd lawyer on a 3-year old civil case, we obtained dismissal of a lawsuit through a successful Rule 12 motion challenging the authority of the plaintiff's attorney to sue my client.  We danced between County Civil Court and a cool, old, Probate Court (overlooking Dealey Plaza), Montgomery County to Dallas County, and back again.. But it worked.. In Family Court, a young veteran who'd paid child support for several years for another man's child (WTF?!) was released from that burden through a successful Bill of Review on paternity.. In another Family Court case, Clients raising an undocumented child since her birth successsfully navigated international notice provisions to attain conservatorship and protection for their child.. Cases involving prosecution or opposition of guardianship and estates comprise the bulk of my Probate Court docket. I will venture into State District Court on select trust litigation cases.. In a feel-good pro bono case, a client saved her home (also the home of her disabled adult child) through combined persistent actions in both Probate Court and Civil District Court.  In another well-publicized pro bono case, a Client 'without a country' who struggled for a decade to navigate State and Federal courts finally attained documentation -- again, dancing between multiple courts to find her answer and secure her future.. But it was a smarter colleague who actually carried the Client across the finish line.  Still, the laterals we make in life can be critical, and often must be pin-point accurate. I made the pass; got the assist; and was delighted to have played.. Boom! as they say.. I enjoy solving puzzles and problems. There are lessons for each of us in the paths we choose together.  It's my job to give you good counsel while the war rages around us.  Our goal is your future, as carefully crafted as is possible (it's always a choice, not fate; otherwise, there'd be no growth and no point to this journey).. As a client, you come to me for a reason, and I treat our relationship with the dignity inherent in the mystery of why we choose certain friends, associates and counsellors over others.  There's meaning for each of us in every battle we choose.. Maybe it's a good review, a referral or (preferably) a past-life tie that brings us together.  Does it really matter?Our paths do matter, especially the intersections.   I'm the first lawyer, judge and would-be polico in my family.  I truly love the diversity of my law practice, my clientelle and the lessons I'm learning along the way.  I've made appearances in more than 30 Texas counties.. What a ride.. If there's a path for us to share, let's make that choice and get moving.
