Admitted to all four Texas federal districts — the only lawyer in this city with the complete set. Her register also lists Insurance as a practice area, which is not decoration: her biography describes a decade spent on the insurance-defence side before she moved to representing claimants.

The bar record

We read Meredythe Heaton Wilkinson in the State Bar of Texas Find a Lawyer directory — the same register behind every Houston, Dallas and Austin listing on this site. The practice, school, fee and language rows are supplied by the lawyer; the Bar publishes them without verifying them, and prints in words where a lawyer has supplied nothing.

Texas answers, and asks more than anyone else. The State Bar prints No Public Disciplinary History as a sentence — not a blank like Washington, not a missing field like Pennsylvania. And it asks about eight things no other register on this site asks about at once: practice areas, law school, fee options, languages, other states, courts of admittance, firm size and services provided. Where a lawyer declines, it prints the refusal in wordsNone Reported By Attorney — so you can tell a question nobody asked from one nobody answered. One record in this city says that five times.

These nine were held once, and the hold is why this listing exists in the form it does. Nine Austin lawyers — this one among them — first reached us with an entry from austinbar.org, the Austin Bar Association’s find-a-lawyer: a voluntary membership directory with no disciplinary field of any kind. We did not publish them. The State Bar of Texas records have since been supplied, and the comparison settled the question: all nine read No Public Disciplinary History — the field the directory does not have — and on top of that, three of the nine licence dates in the directory were wrong and four addresses disagreed, with the regulator matching the lawyer’s own website on three of them. The wait produced a better record, not merely a slower one.

What the record shows

Her courts of admittance are the Eastern, Northern, Western and Southern District Courts of Texas — all four. No other lawyer in this city lists more than three, and eleven of the fourteen list none or one.Verified

Her practice areas are Insurance and Litigation: Personal Injury. The insurance entry matches a biography describing years on the defence side before switching to plaintiff’s work — the register and the biography corroborating each other on the least flattering, most useful fact about a personal injury lawyer: which side they used to be on.Verified

Her firm’s Uber page is the only one in Austin that works a numeric example of Texas’s modified comparative negligence rule: it states the 51% bar, that recovery is reduced in proportion to fault, and then walks a hypothetical award down by a claimant’s share. Fetched and confirmed live on 27 August 2026. The rule it describes is correct.Verified

The page also states the two-year limitation period for personal injury in Texas, and the standard tiers of $50,000/$100,000/$25,000 and $1 million. All confirmed live.Verified

Her register’s Firm Size field reads None Specified even though the firm carries her name. Texas asks; she did not answer; the register prints that rather than guessing.Verified

What the firm says

She says she is a fourth-generation Austinite from a family that worked in insurance for three generations, and that she spent about a decade defending insurers before opening her own firm.Reported

She says the firm is deliberately small so that she handles each case personally. The register’s unanswered firm-size field neither supports nor contradicts this.Reported

This is the firm’s own marketing. It shows they hold themselves out as taking rideshare cases — it is not evidence that they have run one, and we have not verified any rideshare case they have handled.

What we haven’t checked

Not established. The size of the firm, which the register does not record. Her insurance-defence years, which no register documents. Any case outcome — we print no settlement or verdict figures. We have not reviewed court records for case outcomes, we print no settlement or verdict figures, and we have no basis for judging quality of representation. A bar check is a floor, not a ranking.
