Kayla C. Gertsch
Attorney
Kayla C. Gertsch, Associate Attorney, was born and raised in Tarrant County, and is a Horned Frog through and through. She earned her Doctor of Jurisprudence from Texas A&M University School of Law in Fort Worth in 2015. While there, she served as the President of the Family Law Student Association and participated in the Tarrant County National Adoption Day as a Student Attorney. She helped organize the annual Angel Tree, which donated toys and clothes to children at SafeHaven of Tarrant County, where she has previously volunteered with the children’s program.
She knows that calling a family law attorney is a difficult decision. She uses compassion in everything she does, and works with her clients to receive the best outcome for their family. Each family is different, and that requires creativity, willingness to negotiate, and readiness to go to trial.
Kayla is a member of the Tarrant County Family Law Bar Association and the Family Law Section of the State Bar of Texas. She is a licensed attorney in the state of Texas. She represents clients in a variety of family law matters, including divorce and property division, custody disputes, child support modifications, ad litem and amicus work for children, and adoptions.
Ms. Gertsch has been named a Rising Star by Texas Super Lawyers Magazine for 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022, an honor that is limited to no more than 2.5% of attorneys in the State of Texas. She has also been named a “Top Attorney” in Family Law by Fort Worth Magazine every year since 2017. In 2021, Ms. Gertsch was awarded the CASA of Tarrant County Attorney Ad Litem of the year award for her legal services to children and families involved in foster care and CPS cases.
