Meet Jennifer MacGeorge

Fighting to protect Austin's tenants from unfair practices.

Put simply, my job is to protect you from potential risk. Whether from those who would otherwise take advantage of your legal rights, or to make sure you and your family have what you need to be taken care of, should anything ever happen to you or your mental or physical capacity to do so.

I’m also certified through the state bar of Texas for guardianship and ad litem work, and enjoy working with families to design the right plan for their family members and friends in need. My interest in the law sparked with my own landlord failing to make repairs in my college apartment. I went without an A/C unit for three weeks in the middle of August, in Texas, and it was upwards of 116 degrees inside of my apartment!

An attorney helped me back then, and my A/C was replaced the same day I delivered her letter to my landlord. From that point on I have been passionate about fighting for the rights of other people like me. I was born and raised in the Houston area, and sincerely enjoy servicing our Texas communities.
