Diane Byrnes is a awesome attorney. She handled my case with care, compassion and honesty. If/ when I need to deal with custody issues I am definitely retaining her again. 10/ 10 will retain again.

A neighbor put a lock on a gate denying us access to a public road. He refused to remove it claiming it was his road. Yesterday, Mike Smith, a trial lawyer with the Fowler Law firm, won a unanimous verdict from a jury in our favor plus legal fees. What else need be said?

As President of the Austin Gay Men’s Chorus (AGMC), I am immensely grateful for the invaluable support we have received from Laura Fowler and The Fowler Law Firm. Laura has been a critical ally in navigating a wide range of legal matters, from HR-related issues to complex music rights, music commissioning contracts, and general contracts. Her professionalism and expertise are only surpassed by her genuine passion for helping organizations like ours thrive.

Laura has a unique ability to break down complex legal concepts, making them understandable and manageable. Whether we’re negotiating a contract or clarifying HR policies, I always feel confident that we’re in the best possible hands. Her attention to detail, promptness, and commitment to our mission go above and beyond what one might expect from legal representation.

It’s rare to find a legal professional who not only excels in their field but also takes a personal interest in the success of their clients. Laura Fowler is that rare gem. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, approachable, and truly caring attorney, I cannot recommend Laura and The Fowler Law Firm highly enough.

Thank you, Laura, for your continued support of the Austin Gay Men’s Chorus. We are fortunate to have you on our side!

I have had the best personal and professional experience both with Laura Fowler and her team at The Fowler Law Firm. Being in the real estate business, we constantly rely upon industry experts like TFLF to guide and consult on issues ranging from easements to lease backs to post-sale issues. I can’t recommend a better team of professionals for all things legal that you may need in Austin and Texas! Ryan Rogers Douglas Elliman RE Texas.

Diane Byrnes handled my divorce recently and I can’t recommend her more highly. She was compassionate, empathetic, and very patient with me as I navigate this very difficult time. She was knowledgeable and made sure I understood each step along the way. Working with Diane and the Fowler Law Firm set my mind at ease during a hard life transition. I cannot thank her enough for her kindness and professionalism.

Laura Fowler is absolutely amazing. Her ability to simplify complex legal topics is unmatched. She’s one of the most down to earth, genuine and knowledgeable attorneys I’ve spoken with while looking for counsel. Thank you Laura and I look forward to using Fowler Law for all my endeavors.

The Fowler Law Firm truly embodies what it means to empower those they represent. In my line of work, it’s all too common to see hardworking folks in construction not getting paid by greedy general contractors. When one of our Spanish-speaking clients faced this issue, I knew exactly who to refer them to.

Laura and her team were exceptional—they prepared our client for their case, clearly communicated their leverage, and fiercely advocated on their behalf to ensure they were supported every step of the way.

I’ll continue to refer clients to The Fowler Law Firm because they’ve proven to be a trusted advocate for small businesses. Thank you for standing up for our community!

After using the Fowler Law Firm for over ten years I could not be more satisfied with all they have done for me and my family this past decade. The most recent case was considered to be one of the most unique litigation experiences. Diane Byrnes was one of the most intelligent, experienced, patient, consistent, detailed, and personable lawyers I have ever experienced. She always had the best interest of myself and my family in her heart. Making herself available anytime day or night. She was the perfect partner in a case that took two years to achieve an outcome we had only dreamed would be possible. Her tenacity and dedication separated her from the rest along with the backing of the firm. Not only would I recommend Diane but the entire firm to any business, corporation, or individual family looking for the best. What transpired in this case could be taught in law school placing her forever in law history. Thank you to Diane and the entire firm. You have a loyal client for life.
