About Burch Law's Owner & Founding Attorney
I never went to law school to be an estate planning and probate attorney. In fact, my dream and passion was to be a civil rights attorney. I wanted to advocate and fight for those who are marginalized and who feel discarded for no other reason than for who they are, what they believe, or who they love.
After law school, I felt lost and I questioned what I was really meant to do. I also felt very isolated from my family in Dallas, Texas. It’s not in my nature to slow down or to be derailed, so I decided that perhaps I should move back home, start my own practice focused on Wills, trusts, powers of attorney and that I would focus my practice on the LGBTQ+ community. By providing families the ability to make life’s most intimate decisions for one another, to ensure they could make medical decisions, visit each other in the hospital, inherit homes and money they acquired together, and to be able to take care of kids they brought into this world together, basically securing rights that the law didn’t provide, I believed that could help fuel that civil rights passion that burned so strongly inside.
Perhaps what I am most proud of is the number of people who we’ve helped; who we’ve made feel valued, seen, and to know that they matter. Since our firm doesn’t discriminate, we help families and individuals from all walks of life. But at our core, it’s the support of the LGBTQ+ community that is our purpose and passion.
