Why Choose Kirker Davis?

Holly Davis and Christopher Kirker built a husband-and-wife boutique that handles only family law — and only the hardest cases in it. If your divorce involves a closely-held business, a professional practice, executive compensation, deferred grants, or a custody dispute that has become genuinely contested, this is the team Austin's executive class hires. Both founding partners are Texas Super Lawyers. The firm has 14 attorneys across Austin, San Antonio, and McKinney, and it gives every client a partner-led case team. You'll pay for the level of attention — but in a high-asset divorce, the alternative is far more expensive.

Fees & Pricing

What You'll Pay

Kirker Davis is a high-end boutique. Hourly rates for partners typically run from $550 to $850 per hour, with senior associates billing $400 to $550. Initial retainers reflect the complexity of the case — multi-million dollar estates, professional practices, and contested custody matters require larger retainers up front. The firm provides a written engagement letter and monthly billing detail.

FAQ

Common Questions About This Firm

Is Kirker Davis a good fit for a non-high-asset divorce?
The firm's strength — and pricing — is built around complex, high-asset, or high-conflict cases. For a straightforward uncontested divorce, a smaller firm like Weinman & Associates or Smith & Bledsoe is often a better economic fit.
How does Kirker Davis approach business valuation in a divorce?
The firm works with a network of forensic accountants and valuation experts. They will scope a valuation appropriate to the asset (a medical practice, a closely-held business, partnership interests, deferred compensation) and brief the expert from day one.
Do you litigate, or do you settle?
Both. The firm prepares every case for trial, but the majority of matters resolve through negotiated settlement, mediation, or collaborative law. Trial readiness is exactly what produces favorable settlements.
Can I keep my case confidential?
Yes. The firm regularly represents executives, public figures, and physicians who require absolute confidentiality. Every team member is bound by professional confidentiality, and the firm's office in northwest Austin is designed for discreet client meetings.
Do you serve clients outside Austin?
Yes. The firm has offices in Austin, San Antonio, and McKinney, and represents clients statewide on family law matters.
