About Myra Camille McCluer
Myra Camille McCluer Gildner built a legal path that moves from psychology into the courtroom. She studied psychology and neuropsychology at Vanderbilt University, earning a B.S. in 2001. She returned to graduate study at Texas Christian University and completed a Master of Arts in Legal Administration in 2007. She then earned her J.D. from SMU Dedman School of Law in 2010.
Her early career placed her inside county-level prosecution offices. She spent time at the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office and served as an assistant district lawyer at the Denton County District Attorney’s Office. Those roles brought routine courtroom work and case handling, and gave her a sustained exposure to trial practice and the procedures of county courts.
In 2019 she shifted toward private practice. She opened the Law Office of Cami Gildner and listed herself as managing lawyer. That same year she also took an of-counsel position at Barnett Howard & Williams PLLC. The move combined solo-practice management with a role inside a larger firm structure.
Her educational background in psychology and legal administration informs how she approaches files. The combination of a neuroscience-oriented undergraduate degree and legal training provides a perspective on both evidentiary questions and client interaction. Colleagues describe her as steady in courtroom settings and pragmatic in case management.
Gildner is licensed to practice in Texas. Her record includes work across county-level prosecutions and private representation. Over the years she has handled an array of matters that arise in county courts and in the civil and criminal settings that intersect with local prosecution offices.
She maintains ties to local practice through her firm affiliation and her own office. At Barnett Howard & Williams PLLC she serves in an advisory capacity while continuing to operate the Law Office of Cami Gildner as managing lawyer. That arrangement allows her to combine the administrative responsibilities of running a small practice with collaborative work alongside other attorneys at the firm.
Her professional path reflects a steady progression from academic study in psychology to practical work in county legal offices and then to private practice. She practices in Texas and continues to split her time between her own firm and her of-counsel role at Barnett Howard & Williams PLLC. Her current practice focuses on matters in the state of Texas.
