PRO
also known as Hayley Collins Blair
Hayley Blair is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and a partner at Goranson Bain Ausley in Plano.
Hayley represents executives, business owners, professionals, and their spouses in divorce, child custody, and complex property division throughout Collin and Denton counties, including Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Allen, Prosper, Celina, Flower Mound, Argyle, Highland Village, Double Oak, Trophy Club, and Westlake.
Many of Hayley's clients are conscientious parents who want to protect their children from unnecessary conflict while making thoughtful financial decisions for the future. Others are navigating divorces involving executive compensation, significant separate property, closely held businesses, mental health concerns, substance abuse, or parenting arrangements that require customized solutions. They want practical guidance, clear communication, and an attorney who can help them make informed decisions during a difficult time.
For more than 15 years, Hayley has practiced exclusively in Texas family law. She helps clients resolve sophisticated financial issues involving executive compensation, separate property characterization and tracing, reimbursement claims, business interests, and other complex assets. She also regularly represents families facing unique custody issues, including mental health concerns, addiction, and children whose educational, medical, or extracurricular needs require individualized parenting plans.
Known for her emotional intelligence, thoughtful preparation, and practical judgment, Hayley believes successful family law representation is more than resolving legal issues. She helps clients understand the long-term impact of important decisions so they can move forward with confidence. Her goal is to achieve practical, durable solutions that protect both her clients' financial interests and their families' future.
Hayley is trained in Collaborative Law and frequently helps clients resolve disputes through negotiation, mediation, and the Collaborative process when those approaches best serve the family's goals. She believes many families benefit from maintaining control over important decisions rather than allowing those decisions to be made in court. When litigation becomes necessary, she is a prepared and effective advocate who remains focused on protecting her clients' interests.
Hayley has been recognized in The Best Lawyers in America for Family Law (2019–2026), Family Law Mediation (2025–2026), and Collaborative Law: Family Law (2026). She has also been named to Texas Rising Stars multiple times and recognized by D Magazine as one of Dallas' Best Lawyers Under 40.
Beyond her practice, Hayley serves as a visiting lecturer at Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law, where she teaches alternative dispute resolution. She has also presented continuing legal education programs for the State Bar of Texas and the Denton County Bar Association, reflecting her experience in complex financial and family law matters.

Outstanding at every turn
I retained Ms. Collins to deal with my divorce and custody of my daughter. This was a particularly nasty and drawn out and complicated case, mostly due to the history of it and the parties involved.
