Providing the Top-Notch Representation You Deserve

​Attorney Kirsten Davenport J.D., L.L.C.
​Board Certified Personal Injury Trial Lawyer

Picture
Kirsten, born in Pennsylvania, moved to Texas in 1978. In 1993, she graduated from the University of Texas and earned her B.Mus. degree. Then, in 1995, Kirsten graduated from the University of Tulsa College of Law and received her Juris Doctor degree. After she graduated from there, Kirsten started representing individuals who needed legal counsel for child custody and divorce proceedings by working for a family law attorney who was Board-Certified.

Then, she left and joined a boutique litigation law firm called Cooper & Scully, P.C. There, she focused her efforts on representing legal professionals and healthcare experts in malpractice affairs involving fraud, deceptive trade practices, breaches of fiduciary duty, and claims of negligence. In 2011, Kirsten left the firm and joined Davenport Law Firm.

Texas Monthly’s Texas Super Lawyers Rising Stars magazine recognized Kirsten as a “Rising Star” in 2006. She gained further distinction in the legal world when she obtained a LL.M. from the University of Houston in Health Law during the following year. Kirsten’s master thesis dissected a well-known case in the Texas Supreme Court that was in regards to embryos that were cryo-preserved, as well as their rightful custody.

Also, she wrote a paper about the practice of expert witnesses in litigation for medical malpractice, specifically, in Texas. Further articles that she wrote are in regards to the issues about concerns of identity theft in the medical field and FDA oversight of preparedness for the bird flu. Various medical facilities have retained Kirsten to provide them with well-informed counsel about health law matters.

Kirsten is a St. Martha’s Catholic Church member and she’s been married for over two decades. She’s also heavily involved in her community, as she is a Girl Scouts Troop Leader and volunteers as an Orchestra member for their yearly Nightcourt production. This production is a Broadway-type show that involves dancing, acting, and music, and it raised approximately $825,000, all for charity.
