My name is Courtney Repka Wortham. While in law school at Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law, I lived at home and worked for the Honorable Judge Erleigh Wiley of the Kaufman County Court at Law. I have been afforded many valuable experiences that have aided in my desire to practice law. While in undergrad at the University of Texas at Dallas, I worked for the misdemeanor and felony family violence divisions at the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office. From there, I also interned in the Mental Health Division of the Dallas County Public Defender’s Office. My last year of law school, while clerking for the Kaufman County Court, I also interned at the Collin County District Attorney’s Office. I have always had a passion for helping.
As of now, I have a law firm in Terrell, Texas focused mainly on adoptions, foster parent representation, child protective services cases, private termination and adoption, stepparent adoption, representation of children, and fostering agreements between parties.
I understand the importance of protection of children and am passionate about representing those who do not otherwise have a voice in our court system. It has been a pleasure to serve this purpose in the roles of attorney ad litem and amicus attorney as well as representing my clients who are fighting for the safety of children in foster care. I pride myself in fighting hard for my clients but also maintaining professionalism.
Currently, I offer legal services for family law which involves cases such as adoptions, terminations and adoptions, stepparent adoptions, child protective services cases, foster parent interventions, grandparents’ rights, and so forth as well as estate planning/probate and guardianships.
I enjoy practicing in Kaufman County and neighboring counties, familiarity is always a valuable tool when dealing with opposing counsels and the judges as well. But, I have had the pleasure of traveling all across the state of Texas for adoptions - and, just to name a few, that includes Bell County, Hardin County, Bexar County, Nacogdoches County, Polk County, Parker County, Angelina County, Cherokee County, Smith County, and Brazoria County.
I look forward to meeting and working with you to achieve the best possible result.
