In 1997, she opened a private practice and since then has been dedicatedly representing her clients as they go through changes within their family while always prioritizing what's best for their children. Additionally, being an adoptive parent herself, Sharon also passionately assists couples growing families with both foreign and domestic adoptions. Sharon's passion lies in aiding families with disabled children to acquire the services they are entitled to. For a dozen years, she served as a Special Education Hearing Officer and Mediator for the Texas Education Agency, arbitrating special education disputes between schools and parents. With her extensive knowledge of family law, Sharon is dedicated to representing these deserving families with unique needs. Sharon, who co-authored All About Texas Law and Kids published by Texas Lawyer Press - a book about children and the law, is regularly sought out to educate lawyers on her expertise. She has had the honor of serving as faculty for both The National Academy for IDEA Administrative Law Judges & Hearing Officers and The National Administrative Judiciary Conferences where she lectured other professionals on special education law topics.
