Guiding Austin families through life's most important decisions
A client-first, multigenerational probate and estate planning practice. We bring empathy and experience to every family we serve, from Austin to New Braunfels.
Responsive, values-driven counsel in Austin, Texas
Our mission is to serve families from Austin to New Braunfels as they make some of life's most important decisions. As a woman-owned law firm, we bring an intentional mix of empathy and experience to every probate and estate planning client we work with.
The Haney Law Firm was founded in 2001 on principles like responsiveness, integrity, and compassion. To us, those aren't just words. Sisters Caitlin and Amber Haney live these shared values every day, values that have been the bedrock of our multigenerational firm since our mother, Susan Haney, started it.
Losing her in 2021 only deepened our conviction for this work. Today we apply a caring lens of learned and lived experience to every case, working side by side as a family and a professional team, honoring her legacy of excellence.

Our practice areas
Focused counsel in the areas Central Texas families and businesses need most, handled with the care of a small firm and the capability of a large one.
Estate Planning
Planning for the future is one of the kindest things you can do for the people you love. A comprehensive estate plan protects your family from the stress of handling affairs later, and makes sure your wishes are honored.

Probate
Settling a loved one's affairs is rarely simple. We walk families through the process of distributing assets and resolving debts after a death, with or without a valid will, so nothing falls on you alone.

Civil Litigation
Disputes are common in business, and they can become costly and time consuming. We work toward a reasonable resolution first, and stand ready to present your case to a judge or jury if a trial becomes necessary.

Caitlin Haney Johnston
Attorney
Second-generation counsel guiding families through estate planning, probate, and civil matters with clarity and care.
Amber Haney
Senior Paralegal
A steady hand at the center of every case, keeping clients informed and the process moving from first call to resolution.
Caitlin and Amber work alongside Celeste Rodriguez and the full Haney team, so every client has a dedicated group in their corner from first call to resolution.
The Haney Firm treated our family like family when we were going through one of the hardest times we ever had to deal with. Having this team in our corner was a shining star in a black time for us.
The team brought a seriousness of purpose and professionalism at every turn. They showed the legal capacity of a large firm while exhibiting the care and flexibility of a smaller firm. They are the first recommendation I make when others are seeking legal advice.
Throughout our time working with them they were easily accessible, professional, affordable, and showed diverse areas of expertise. They took the time to fully explain the legal process so we could understand it. We would highly recommend The Haney Law Firm's services.
