I believe every client deserves to be educated in their case. You and I are a team that will work together to educate and prepare you for both litigation and success after litigation.
In family law I have a wide variety of experience from adult disabled children and child support to complex property division. Family law matters are extremely personal and each case is unique. While many good results come from mediation, sometimes circumstances require a hearing. I give my clients honest assessments of their circumstances and let them decide from the options available to them. I believe it is important to keep my clients active participants in their own legal process. We work together to address liquidity, possible tax implications and cash flow concerns as well as child related custody and possession issues.
Creativity and an open mind have led to many resolutions that would never have happened inside a courtroom and are a much better result for all parties involved, including the children.
I have been involved in the LGBTQ community for a decade and am proud to support my LGBTQ clients through their own family law journeys.
I am here to guide you on your difficult journey through the confusing, and often times frustrating, legal system and to assist in creating workable solutions.
I have been selected by my peers as a Houstonia Top Attorney 2018 and as a Texas Rising Star attorney for 2019, 2020, and 2021.

Kathleen saved my family. After hiring four lawyers to deal with an extremely complicated and volatile divorce and custody situation, Kathleen was the only one who got it done.
