My family always jokes, ‘the legal gene is in her blood.’ I grew up in the courtroom, often going to work with my parents. One of my earliest life memories is watching juvenile court with my dad who was a prosecutor at the time and is now a state district judge. My mom was a court coordinator and has undoubtedly taught me as much law as my dad has. Ever since that day in juvenile court, I have dreamed of helping people in the same way they have. My maternal grandfather was an incredible Austin, Texas defense attorney and was partners in a firm with my uncle. They always fought the good, honest fight for the underdog and instilled in me to do the same. My paternal grandfather taught law at the University of Texas. It really is in my blood.
I graduated from Texas A&M University (WHOOP!) with a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology. I then went on to get my JD from St. Mary’s University School of Law in San Antonio, Texas. There I was Chair of the Board of Advocates and an Editorial Member for The Scholar: St. Mary’s Law Review on Race and Social Justice. Advocating for others and social justice are hand in hand very important to me.
I was born in Austin and grew up in Bastrop, Texas. I am always down for adventure and a good hike. In my free time you can find me walking around town with my dog and cheering on the Aggies.

Excellent attorney!
Liz represented me in a criminal case and exceeded expectations. She did a phenomenal job handling my case. Liz was invested in getting the best possible outcome for me and that is what happened. Two felony charges and misdemeanors resulted in a dismissed case. I would absolutely recommend her for an...

Incredibly dedicated and communicative
I worked with Elizabeth for almost a year on my case. I was facing multiple misdemeanors and a felony charge due to a mental health episode. Elizabeth worked hard to keep me informed as the process played out, helped me understand all my options, and fought hard with the prosecutors to find a better ...

Professional and Understanding
This was my first ever experience with any sort of serious criminal offense and I was incredibly stressed and overwhelmed with the uncertainty of my future.

Great and friendly lawyer and firm!
I had a great experience with Liz and the rest of the team. From start to finish, they were incredibly helpful. Liz provided me information from knowledgable sources, and sound advice. She got me the result I wanted in my felony case, and I couldn't ask for a better attorney.

Expunction success
I hired Ms Duggan from Cofer & Connelly to expunge my arrest (the charges had been dropped), and she did it in the timeframe that they said they would. I have no complaints. Thank you!
