The result is more valuable time for you and with you, focused on your case and your needs.

Vision for the Firm:

Hassell Family Law

When I founded Hassell Family Law, I didn't want to be just another divorce attorney with just another law firm—I wanted to bring my different perspective on the divorce process directly to you to help you be successful with your divorce. I aim to be a beacon of calm and resolution in challenging times. I am dedicated to offering an alternative to the commonplace, aggressive legal narrative. Instead, I champion strategies rooted in understanding, compassion, and most importantly, resolution. I am driven by providing you with a divorce experience that values compassion over conflict, prioritizes efficiency over endless billable hours with no end in sight, and executes a well-thought out plan defined by your goals and objectives from start to finish to get you divorced. I want you to be able to move on with your life. I want you to leave your divorce better than when you started it. I know it’s possible because I have done it countless times for my clients who were exactly where you are now when they started. They are better off because of my approach to a smarter divorce. It’s your turn. Schedule a consultation, and let's start planning a Smarter Path for your divorce together.

About Jonathan Hassell
A Business, professional headshot of lawyer Jonathen Hassell

I am passionate about making a positive difference in the lives of my clients and by extension their families. I have gained unique perspectives on divorce, family, and overcoming obstacles throughout my life. I experienced a contentious divorce firsthand as a young teenager and I experienced my own divorce when I was a new father. I stopped and started college a couple times, but ultimately worked full time to finish my degree while proudly serving in the United States Army Reserves. Between college and law school, I progressed through various roles in different financial institutions building a knowledgeable foundation in banking, business, investing, and finance. I then transitioned to law school as a second career with family law in mind from the start. During law school I worked full time as a family law clerk where I learned how to operate in a law firm from the ground up. I bring more than just my legal education and professional background to my clients each day. I bring decades of real-world experience, practical knowledge, and common sense that you cannot learn in a classroom or observe in a courtroom. I know firsthand the value of hard work and overcoming adversity. I relate to my clients and their circumstances on a personal level, and I am invested in their success. I am motivated by joining my clients on their journey through divorce and seeing them achieve the peace of mind and relief that comes when I tell them their divorce is over and they are ready to move on. At home, I am happily married to my incredibly loving, supportive, and patient wife, Kat. We have a blended family of three amazingly wonderful sons, Aydan, Jackson, and Wyatt, along with our dog, Luca. I love being a husband and a father. I am a better person and better attorney because of my family. They keep me grounded and at the same time drive me to help others in their journey through life.

Testimonials

Jonathan was very responsive and talked through a multi-state issue to help me get the case listed in Texas. He was very knowledgeable and understanding of all of my concerns and made me feel completely at ease and secure that my case would be handled with the least amount of impact to me and my family. I always understood all of my options and Jonathan walked me through all of the steps on how to proceed with my case. I highly recommend Jonathan for your legal needs.
