Curtis W. Harrison II

A TRIAL LAWYER TO HELP YOU STAY OUT OF COURT

Curtis Harrison on doing what is best for clients:

My clients include successful professionals and business owners, or their spouses, who want to resolve family issues in the most productive manner possible. My goal is to help clients feel safer, more secure, and fully empowered to get through one of the most challenging times in their lives.

What I help clients do:

• Create and follow a plan to get through the current crisis while also enabling you to build a positive future after divorce.
• Make informed, well-reasoned choices that position you to succeed.
• Successfully achieve out-of-court solutions for complex property divisions, high conflict personality issues, and contested child custody matters.
• Preserve dignity and a sense of security amid personal adversity, uncertainty, and turmoil.

Professional experience and credentials

Curtis has served as the Managing Partner for two law firms, including GoransonBain Ausley, over a combined period of almost 20 years. With his educational and experiential background in business administration, management, and finance, Curtis has a deep appreciation for the economic complexities and long-term pressures uniquely faced by business owners, C-suite executives, and the spouses of such individuals. Curtis applies his experience to help his clients identify, prioritize and achieve their strategic goals for the process, just as they would in their professional lives.

Curtis has litigated cases around the State of Texas for over 25 years. However, he has come to recognize the collateral harm caused by a judicial system that was designed to adjudicate winners and losers – not resolve family disputes. His goal is to help clients resolve their conflicts constructively, so they can move forward with hope for a better future. Curtis practices family law as he strives to live—with honesty and integrity, working diligently to make a positive difference.

Curtis is Master Credentialed in the Collaborative Divorce approach and has published numerous articles on the advantages of the Collaborative Divorce model. He is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and has been named a “Texas Super Lawyer” by Thomson Reuters every year since 2008. He has also been named a “Best Lawyer” by Best Lawyers in America© in Family Law, Mediation, and Collaborative Law, 2017-2021. He has previously served on the Board of Trustees for Collaborative Divorce Texas and the Texas Board of Legal Specialization Family Law Advisory Commission.
