Emma Castro

Emma Castro is the friendly force keeping the office organized and running smoothly as our Administrative Assistant. She manages schedules, coordinates meetings, and keeps client calls on track, all while maintaining a warm, cheerful presence that makes everyone feel at home. With a Bachelor’s in Rhetoric and Writing from UT Austin, a minor in Law, Justice, and Society, and a paralegal certification, Emma knows her way around the legal world. Her four years supporting legal teams in Austin have made her a master multitasker.

But don’t let her efficiency fool you. Emma is just as much about fun as she is about spreadsheets and schedules. She loves spending cozy afternoons at home with her cats, experimenting with new recipes, reading, writing creatively, or gaming with a furry friend perched on her lap. Outside the home, you might find her belting out karaoke, sinking a pool shot, or riding roller coasters at full speed. Emma is the third of four sisters, and growing up, she and her middle sister, Gabriella, were often mistaken for twins, a mix-up she still laughs about today.

Emma keeps the office organized and the goldfish crackers, along with the occasional sweet treat, well-stocked, all with a smile.

“I recommend them most highly! Everyone I have worked with there has been skillful, professional, approachable, punctual, and organized.
