About the Firm
Fancher Legal, PLLC is focused on delivering high-quality and cost-effective legal representation. The firm prides itself on providing clients with the utmost level of professionalism and ingenuity. Kristen Fancher began her legal career in Austin, where she was able to gain extensive experience representing clients across Texas on water, government/public sector, environmental, litigation, transactional, and regulatory compliance matters. The firm is based in Frisco, Texas, and we are fortunate to be able to represent clients across the state on the same core practice areas.
Kristen Fancher
Founder
Kristen Fancher has extensive experience in representing clients on water and other legal matters across the State of Texas. She represents a diverse array of clients—from water districts to landowners and private companies—and therefore has a broad perspective that benefits her clients. After practicing in Austin for a number of years, Kristen simultaneously founded Fancher Legal, PLLC, and relocated with her family to the North Texas area where she was raised. She is a 6th generation Texan and is fortunate to have the opportunity to represent clients with interests and values similar to those that she was raised with.
