Hello, world.

My name is Garrett Morrell.

As a draftsman and transactional lawyer, I draft legal documents for low- and modest-income Central Texans and chart routes through the trees of legalese with a map oriented for precision and plain English as a compass. Precise writing is my labor of love, keen analysis—and fantasy football!—my passion.

[insert Cycling is my Passion dot gif]

I help

+ small businesses—collectively, the engine of our macroeconomy—start and launch to the moon;

+ homebuyers acquire and homeowners protect their dream home;

+ landowners secure their legacy with a plot of land;

+ retirees and professionals control the distribution of their property, preserve their wealth, care for themselves and loved ones (perhaps even neat-o doggos), and minimize tax consequences and other costs; and

+ landlords and tenants internalize, safeguard, and exercise their rights, duties, and remedies under a lease or various subchapters of applicable statutes.
