About Kathryn L.
Kathryn L. Pruitt is a Texas lawyer whose career spans litigation, judicial clerking and private practice. She earned her law degree from South Texas College of Law in 1993 after completing an English degree at the University of Texas at Austin in 1988. Those academic years set the stage for a steady progression through a variety of firm environments and courtroom settings.
Fresh from law school, she served as a law clerk to U.S. Magistrate Judge Nancy K. Johnson in 1993. The clerkship offered early exposure to federal procedure and case management. It also provided a foundation for the litigation work that followed in private practice.
Pruitt began her associate years in the mid-1990s. She joined Phelps Dunbar in 1995 and moved to Carrigan, Lapin & Landa, L.L.P. in 1998. In 2000 she took an associate position at Cozen & O connor. She spent 2002 as an associate at Morgan & Weisbrod, which is listed as N/K/A Miller Weisbrod. By 2004 she was an associate at Goranson Bain Larsen Greenwald Maultsby & Murphy, PLLC. Each stop added to her courtroom experience and to a practical understanding of family and civil matters.
In 2008 she was part of Webb Voyles & Pruitt, P.C., and the following year she opened Pruitt Law Group, PLLC. Those moves mark a shift toward running a practice and advising clients directly. The Pruitt Law Group listing shows her in a leadership role. Over time she built a practice shaped by both litigation experience and client representation in domestic matters.
Pruitt is board certified in family law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. That certification indicates specialized study and testing in family law practice, and it aligns with the professional memberships she maintains. She is a member of the Texas Academy of Family Law Specialists and the Texas Family Law Foundation. Locally, she holds memberships in the Collin County Bar Association, the Denton County Bar Association and the Dallas Bar Association. These affiliations connect her to state and county networks of family law practitioners.
Her career path shows a progression from federal clerkship to associate roles across several firms, and then to founding and operating her own firm. She practices in Texas and has concentrated her professional credentials around family law. She currently practices at Pruitt Law Group, PLLC, where she handles family law matters.
