Associate Attorney | Hargrave Family Law | Texas State Bar #24107906

Dallas Divorce Attorney, Hannah Rector is a passionate and empathetic family law attorney who brings both legal acumen and heartfelt compassion to her work. Her journey into family law began while studying psychology at Texas Christian University, where she worked for a domestic violence shelter and witnessed firsthand the critical need for competent and compassionate legal representation in divorce and custody cases.

Hannah understands that the true complexities of family law extend beyond courtroom appearances. At Hargrave Family Law, she is committed to putting the family first, prioritizing resolution over conflict. Her goal is to help clients reach favorable settlements that reduce financial and emotional harm while preserving relationships whenever possible. However, when necessary, she is a fierce and tireless advocate in the courtroom.

After earning her Juris Doctor from Georgetown University Law Center in 2016, Hannah returned to Texas to build her practice in family law. She is actively involved in the legal community through memberships in multiple county bar associations and has been recognized for her excellence, including being named to *Super Lawyers Rising Stars* and *Best Lawyers Ones to Watch.*

Hannah lives in Dallas with a violinist, two young children, and two Basenjis. She thrives on outdoor adventures, whether shark diving, skydiving, or white-water rafting—but her favorite moments are the simple, joyful ones at home with her family.

“Anyone involved in family litigation has already experienced loss. We work together with our clients to minimize the financial and emotional damage that is too often part of the divorce process. There are great opportunities for healing during and after this process, and every member of the Hargrave Family Law team has this in mind while advocating for our clients.

Hannah Rector represented me in a modification case. She has a high integrity for all she does. She explained everything in detail, gave realistic possible outcomes, and was honest throughout the process. I trusted all her legal advise and felt well supported to make decisions based on honest advise. Hannah shows interest in supporting what’s right for her client and most importantly- the children.
She also showed a great deal of compassion and empathy during the difficult time this can be. I am very thankful for all Hannah did for my children and I. I recommend her to anyone going through this legal process, she will be a light in the path!
