A Different Approach
Legal expertise with compassion
My mission is to always represent clients in a professional and compassionate nature.
When clients come to me seeking assistance, I treat them how I would want to be treated. I like helping people find solutions. Everyone has a unique situation and deserves unique attention.

my story
Hi! It's me, Susannah. I was born and raised in East Texas. After graduating from the University of Texas at Tyler in 2002 with a degree in Mathematics, I worked in the computer science field in Austin, Texas for seven years. In 2012, I graduated from St. Mary's Law School. While in school, I worked for the U.S. Air Force JAGs, helping prepare court-martial hearings and training incoming JAGs on Texas law.
After graduating law school, I worked as an attorney for six years for the Texas Department of Insurance in Austin, advising executive staff on policy matters and drafting law for legislative consideration.
Being a country girl at heart and missing the piney woods, I returned to East Texas in 2018 to begin a solo practice. I practice in several East Texas counties, including Smith, Cherokee, Henderson, Anderson, Van Zandt, and Wood counties.
My personal and professional philosophies include giving back in meaningful ways to the local communities in which I practice. I love being involved in animal rescue and helping people help their pets. I also serve as an attorney ad litem for CPS and Juvenile cases, and am passionate about helping kids thrive.
I enjoy loving on animals, particularly my two hound dogs and three cats. I also love being in nature, gardening, riding horses, and watching re-runs of I Love Lucy.
