About Calli
Biography
I am a family and estates attorney operating my own virtual firm. I devote my practice to families, serving clients throughout the Houston metropolitan region, handling matters including divorce, wills, child custody, asset division, LGBT relationships, CPS, guardianships and trusts, and more.
With experience ranging from military legal services to healthcare to lobbying, my common thread is a dedication to Texas families. Professionally, I directs that passion into my work. Personally, I work with attorney groups and non-profits to provide legal and health services to needy families.
I gained legal experience by clerking with the child support division of the Texas Attorney General’s Office and with the family services division of the Dallas County Public Defender’s Office. I also interned with a chief justice of the First Court of Appeals, which serves the Houston area.

Exemplary Service
Calli was able to obtain an equatable solution despite insurmountable obstacles in my case. She came onto a seemingly botched case that was almost two years in; the first attorney that was on the case had done literally nothing but agree with the opposing counsel in which I did not agree. Calli was e...

Efficient, timely, thorough, knowledgeable and professional. Pleasant and friendly to work with
Our divorce matter was quite simple without kids, but with multiple properties and a business. My wife and I hashed out most of the details ourselves.

Awesome Lawyer
Calling made my experience seem easy during my custody battle. She paid attention to the details and made an intimidating process seem simple. She should be your first call when you need a family law attorney.
