About Gabriella
Biography
I was born in Ohio but as many of us Texans say, " I got here as fast as I could." I have lived in Austin for more than 20 years. My entire legal career has been spent learning local and State laws while building a family here in Austin. I love Austin and the citizens that live here. I was a prosecutor for over 4 years and left the DPS to become a defense attorney in 2005. After 15 years of practicing criminal defense, I could not imagine doing anything else with my law degree. It is an exciting, fast paced, and always evolving career. I learn something everyday from my collegues, my adversaries, and my clients. I take pride in my work and the representation of my clients. I represent clients on misdemeanor and felony criminal charges, as well as, assist clients with various license suspension issues. I feel so lucky to live in such a robust and dynamic city doing what I love. If you need help, my consultations are always free and I will do my best to guide you thorugh the process honestly and at a fair price. Keep Austin Weird!

Could not have had a better lawyer
After being recommended to me by a friend, I hired Gabriella for my case. From the first meeting, I felt like I had a great connection with her and that she was well versed in the area I was arrested for. She encouraged me to meet with other attorneys as well to make sure I got a group of perspective...

Gabriella C. Young's Lawyer Endorsements
"Gabby is the guru for DWI defense and their associated drivers license revocation hearings. This isn't all she does and I've seen her competently handle all types of criminal cases from minor traffic tickets to getting a favorable verdict on a murder case. But her experience as a prior DPS prosecutor gives her an edge that often sends me to seek her advice. I strongly endorse this lawyer."
"Gabriella is recognized as an expert in Administrative License Revocations and everything else involving Driver's Licenses. I've sent close friends to Gabriella and she produced excellent results."
"I endorse this lawyer. Gabby is a great lawyer and true resource for many especially when it comes to ALR hearings etc. She is smart and takes good care of her clients."
"Gabriella was one of my first mentors when I began practicing criminal defense in Austin. She is an incredibly fierce advocate for her clients, while being well liked and respected by her adversaries, which is often a tough balance to pull off. II'm lucky to have had the kind of roll model who values and exhibits both tenacity and compassion when I was starting out."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Gabby is fantastic and really cares about her clients...Smart as whip and as nasty as a bulldog, the prosecutors always listen to her."
