Law Office of Betty Blackwell, Austin TX

Betty provided the best possible outcome for my court case! Far beyond any expectations I had going in. I am very thankful for the service she provided and cannot recommend her enough!

I recently got into a sticky legal situation, and I didn’t even know where to start. I did what most of us do - I Googled around and called a few lawyers. I was immediately turned off by their transactional treatment of our conversation. It felt like if I was just another criminal begging for their help. On top of that, most of the conversations opened with their fees before discussing my case. I felt so alone. When I called Betty, I could immediately tell she cared for me and my case. She treated me like a human who makes mistakes and not a criminal. I was so relieved after we spoke and was 100% sure she was going to try her best to get me out of this situation. Fast forward to today, she was able to get all charges dismissed. What an amazing person and lawyer! If looking for a lawyer that truly cares and will do an amazing job at defending you, call Betty.

My experience with Betty as a criminal defense attorney was far beyond expectations. I came to her highly recommended after getting into some trouble, terrified and uncertain about the future. She built my case to every detail, explained my options thoroughly and re-assured me everything was gonna be ok—given my individual circumstances. Moreover, she knows basically everyone in the system and is very respected by her peers. Fast forward a few months, she helped me get the best deal possible, which resulted in a rejection of charges, thus getting it all dismissed and expunged later on.

I can’t recommend her enough. Hopefully you won’t go through something as awful as getting into trouble with the law, but if you do, do yourself a favor and hire Betty.

I must have interviewed a dozen lawyers to deal with my 5 count felony narcotics case. The arresting officers entered my home and confiscated narcotics, my 8 firearms, and about $20k. Every lawyer I interviewed wanted to talk about money before discussing the details of my case. That's how I knew I found the right lawyer when Betty listened to the details of my case and discussed my options and expectations before ever mentioning money. She discussed both best and worse case scenarios and promised me she would personally handle my case and not pass it off to anyone else at her law firm. I like the intimacy of her practice because I felt that I was a priority and wasn't getting passed around to a less experienced partner within the firm. Speaking of which, my case was passed around between 5-10 different prosecutors within Travis county. Betty would have to plead my case all over again each time Travis county changed prosecutors and she never gave up the fight. Betty put together a defense of case files that involved bieng nervous around officers durring a traffic stop does not qualify as probable cause to search the vehicle. The final prosecutor agreed, due to lack of probable cause of searching my vehicle which lead to officers entering my home, the case was thrown out on the grounds of illegal search and seizure. 5 felonies completely dropped. I was content with this outcome, but Betty continued fighting. Betty went the extra mile and forced the travis county sheriff's office to forfeit all of my confiscated money. They tried to drag their feet and make it difficult to recieve my money, but she held thier feet to the fire and threatened litigation and fees if they continued to refuse to forfeit my funds. This made them move quickly and they cut a check. Thanks to Betty's vast knowledge of the law and most importantly her relentless grit, the best case scenario concludes my experience. I highly recommend her services.

Ms. Blackwell helps Veterans regularly and helped me with an issue I've spent over a year trying to figure out. Betty got it resolved in an hour. She's amazing! SO trustworthy and is amazing watching her do her thing.

If you want someone who provides an ethical and knowledgeable service you will want to seek assistance from Attorney Blackwell

It is extremely frightening navigating the legal system. I am so grateful that my path lead me to Betty. It was clear from day one that she is well versed in her field and that she is passionate about what she does. She was straightforward and set clear expectations. Anytime I needed to make an in person visit both her and Anne were so gracious and welcoming. Although my actions lead to an unfortunate situation I am so fortunate that Betty agreed to represent my case.

Needed an attorney to handle a case for a beloved family member, stemming from an incident over 5 years ago. Based on the glowing reviews that I had found regarding her (and her practice of law), I hired her. She promptly and professionally, got the matter resolved—in less than two weeks no less. (I honestly did not think it was possible to get the wheels of justice to turn at that speed.) So, I am honored to join the ranks of former clients, all leaving 5-Star Reviews (earned, and well-deserved).

Betty Blackwell is THE BEST attorney in all of Travis County. She diligently worked (for a year and a half) on my behalf to get a DWI charge completely dismissed with no additional fines or probation. Im walking away with a clear record and I owe it all to Betty! She WILL go to bat for you over and over again. You definitely want her as your representation!

You won’t regret hiring Betty. I was recommended by a friend who described her as the Gloria Allred of DWIs. SHE IS THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS. This woman will do everything in her power to get you the best outcome.

Super responsive, phone, text or email. She is there.
Great value and payment plans!
Super professional and super easy to talk to about your legal issues.

Just keep calm and trust Betty Blackwell!

Hands down the the best lawyer I could have chosen. Betty exceeded my expectations when it came to the outcome of my case. I didn't exercise my rights by talking to the police even so Betty got me an almost unheard-of sentence for my case but it took work on my end aswell. Having a good lawyer like Betty and doing the work will get you the results you want.

So recently I hired Betty Blackwell for a sticky situation I got myself in. She was more than professional and was always timely at keeping me up to date. Because of the seriousness of my circumstances I was constantly worried about the what if’s but she always reassured me it would be handled and resolved. Everything was very easy and mostly online and she was able to get my case DISMISSED! ALL FEES AND FINES WAIVED! Before I hired her I was searching around for other attorneys and none of them stuck out to me as much as her. I knew she could get the job done and she did it very swiftly. Absolutely 10/10 recommend

Betty Blackwell is the most compassionate lawyer and strives for the highest ethical standards. I met her during a very dark time in my life after a family member was arrested for drugs. Ms. Blackwells confidence and deep knowledge of the justice system gave great comfort to me and my family during this difficult time. I would highly recommend Betty Blackwell over and over again. She went over and above what I would have ever expected. I can’t thank her enough for what she did for us.

Betty Blackwell is an exceptional lawyer! After being charged with class A DWI, I met with Betty who was completely honest and knowledgable of the court system. She informed me my chances of having the charge completely dismissed were very low. With that said, Betty went to bat for me and defended my case. Not only did she consistently keep me in the loop, Betty also held me responsible for completing legal requirements to help my case. Betty Blackwell is highly respected in the court and let me tell you this really paid off. My case was DISMISSED because of Betty’s attention to detail, professionalism, and willingness to take every action to fight for my case.

Do you know Betty Blackwell? Yes, I certainly do and I am glad that I was able to use Betty to get my DWI case DISMISSED! My bestfriend recommended Betty even tho it sounded cliche but the fact that Betty's name is recognized in the Austin area speaks volumes. Never in a million years did I think that I would have to call Betty. I've seen her commercial on tv over the past 3 decades and Betty is the lawyer that you would want to call to defend you. Betty's experience and expertise is worth every penny. Might I add that she quoted me a very reasonable price. I was INNOCENT but it costs to prove that in America. Betty apologized to me more than she needed to and I really appreciate that about her. Betty is fair and she calls wrong, wrong and of course right, right. Betty was definitely the right person to get my case DISMISSED! I am forever grateful and I'm proud to personally know Betty Blackwell!
