ABOUT US

HELLO, I’M ATTORNEY MICHELLE L. IBELING

I’m delighted that you have arrived at my firm website and hope that after perusing the pages and articles you’ll feel more informed and open to working with my firm.

I pride myself in assisting clients with kindness, compassion, skill, and honesty. I know that my particular areas of practice can sometimes require tough conversations about my clients’ lives, finances, and families- and because of that, my goal is to make sure that they feel informed and cared for along the way.

When it comes to divorce, I want to walk my clients through what can be a difficult transition as their legal counselor, compassionately, without judgment, and without undue stress.

When it comes to estate planning, I want to help my clients rest easy knowing that their families will be taken care of no matter what.

When it comes to bankruptcy, I hope to guide my clients to a fresh start without judgment.

When it comes to probate, I want to make the process as simple, easy, and efficient as possible. Though death is never easy, I hope to relieve some weight off of their shoulders so they can focus on caring for their families.

My work as an attorney is always grounded in the value of family. Having moved from Minnesota to Austin, Texas in 2010, with my own family, I have been happy to be a part of the Texas community ever since. When my children were young, I enjoyed volunteering at Concordia High School in Round Rock, was the proud “Team Mom” for the varsity soccer team, and in my favorite role of all, I was the Head Dance Director for the school’s performance team as well as the competition team. These days I enjoy visiting my children at the A&M campus where they attend school and play sports. I continue to pride myself as their “Team Mom.”

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my husband and children, watching my two daughters cheer, dance, and play softball, and cheering my son on at soccer games.

I look forward to working together soon.

Testimonials

Michelle was very thorough and a voice of reason during extremely emotional times. My particular case was very long and drawn out and I didn’t have the most patience. She was a welcome breath of fresh air during the most trying of times. My case ended on a satisfactory note and Michelle made sure that everything was wrapped up without any loose ends. I highly recommend Michelle Ibeling.

I was in a custody and visitation battle with my ex-wife. The mother would not allow my daughter to see me or my relatives. Ms. Ibeling helped tremendously. She professionally handled all the hearings and filing flawlessly. She is great to work with from the consultation through the hearing and did follow up. I would recommend to anyone needing a quality attorney and wonderful person.

I hired Michelle Ibeling to draft some documents for me before I left the state for college. She explained what documents I needed and why. She was able to draft them timely. I would hire her again.

Michelle was very helpful in my first duty as an adult. She explained all the legal documents thoroughly, helped me pick the best person to represent me, and was not bias at all. She is my go-to for anything legal.
