Protecting What Matters Most
by James Evans - July 1st, 2026
Evans Family Law Group is proud to announce the addition of Kathryn Figueredo Fowler as Of Counsel, marking a meaningful expansion of the firm’s presence in Georgetown, Texas, and across Williamson County. This addition reflects our commitment to serving Central Texas families with experienced, trial-ready advocacy at every stage of a family law matter.

Kathryn Figueredo Fowler joins as Of Counsel, bringing a distinguished career built on preparation, courtroom skill, and genuine dedication to the families she represents. She will serve in this capacity to support the firm’s expansion into its Georgetown and Williamson County office, providing continuity of representation for clients in the area until she takes the bench as Judge of County Court at Law No. 3 on January 1, 2027. Her addition strengthens our capacity to serve clients across Georgetown and the surrounding communities, bringing experience rarely matched.
Kathryn has devoted her career to family law, representing individuals and families through divorce, child custody, conservatorship, property division, and other complex matters across Central Texas. Her work spans the full range of issues families face during difficult, life-altering transitions.
Her approach has always been grounded in preparation. Kathryn enters every case with the expectation that it may proceed to litigation, which means clients benefit from a level of readiness that extends far beyond routine legal counsel. That mindset has defined her career and has earned her the confidence of clients and colleagues across Williamson, Travis, Bell, and the surrounding counties.
Kathryn has been licensed to practice law in Texas since 1990. In 1994, she was admitted to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Throughout her career, she has remained actively involved in the Williamson County Bar Association, the Austin Bar Association, the Bell County Bar Association, and the Family Law Section of the State Bar of Texas.
Her continued involvement in these professional organizations reflects her commitment to the legal community serving Georgetown, Williamson County, and the broader Central Texas region.
Kathryn’s courtroom record is one of the most defining elements of her career. With decades of trial experience across Williamson and Travis County courts, she brings a practiced, confident presence to contested divorce, high-conflict custody disputes, and matters involving family violence, providing the kind of representation clients need when the stakes are highest.
Her ability to navigate complex factual and legal issues, prepare clients thoroughly for litigation, and advocate with precision in court has made her a trusted resource for families who need more than general guidance.
Georgetown is a growing community with an increasing need for experienced, local family law counsel. Kathryn Figueredo Fowler’s addition as Of Counsel positions Evans Family Law Group to meet that need directly, bringing seasoned courtroom advocacy and decades of Williamson County experience to families navigating divorce, custody, and related matters.
This expansion reflects our recognition that families in Georgetown deserve the same level of strategic, committed representation that has defined the firm’s reputation across Central Texas. Kathryn’s presence deepens that commitment and strengthens our reach throughout Williamson County and the communities it serves.
For clients in Georgetown and Williamson County, Kathryn’s addition means access to an attorney who has spent decades preparing for the courtroom and delivering results in it. Her trial-focused mindset, practical problem-solving, and extensive familiarity with the courts in this region translate directly into stronger representation.
Clients facing contested proceedings, high-conflict matters, or complex custody disputes will benefit from her depth of experience and steady, strategic approach to even the most demanding cases.
Kathryn Figueredo Fowler will continue serving clients in her Of Counsel capacity through January 2027, at which point she will transition to the bench as Judge of Williamson County Court at Law No. 3 on January 1, 2027. Her continued involvement with the firm during this period ensures a smooth transition for clients and colleagues, maintaining the quality of representation and continuity of care that families deserve.
This arrangement reflects both Kathryn’s dedication to the clients she has committed to serve and the firm’s approach to honoring those relationships at every stage.
Families in Georgetown and across Williamson County deserve counsel that is prepared, experienced, and ready to advocate on their behalf. Evans Family Law Group offers exactly that, backed by decades of combined experience and a team that understands what is at stake for your family.

Our Austin family law attorneys handle a wide range of matters, including divorce, child custody, child support, spousal support (alimony), property division, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, adoption, and modifications of court orders. Whether your case is straightforward or highly contested, our team provides personalized legal guidance to protect your rights and your family’s future.
The timeline for a divorce varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether it’s contested or uncontested. Texas law requires a 60-day waiting period after filing before a divorce can be finalized, but contested cases involving disputes over property, custody, or support can take several months or even longer to resolve.
An uncontested divorce occurs when both spouses agree on all major issues, such as property division, custody, and support. These cases are generally faster and less expensive.
A contested divorce, on the other hand, involves disagreements that require negotiation, mediation, or a court decision. Our attorneys are experienced in both types of cases and can guide you through either process efficiently.
In Texas, the court’s primary concern is always the best interest of the child. Factors considered include each parent’s ability to provide for the child, the stability of each home environment, the child’s relationship with each parent, and, in some cases, the child’s preferences. Our Austin family lawyers work hard to protect your parental rights and achieve an arrangement that supports your child’s well-being.
