Today we say a special heartfelt thank you and express appreciation to our Cantey Hanger Administrative Staff!

Their dedication and hard work keep everything running smoothly and make a real difference every day.

The past year, we’ve celebrated the incredible careers of several team members with 25+ years of service who took a well-deserved retirement, and we’ve welcomed new faces who already are making a meaningful impact. The future is exciting because of the talent, energy and commitment each brings to our firm.

Our staff is the backbone of Cantey Hanger. We celebrate today what we receive every day.

Three years ago, Cantey Hanger, a 144-year-old law firm, formalized our presence in Ellis County by opening an office in Midlothian to serve the needs of this bustling, fast-growing area. Late last year, we relocated our Ellis County office to Waxahachie.

We invite you to join us at 4:45 Wednesday April 8 to celebrate our move to the historic county seat. Led by Ellis County native, Misty Broome, we continue to grow our experienced team of local attorneys, paralegals and staff, while also drawing from the deep talent pool of our Fort Worth, Dallas and Austin offices to provide high-quality legal services.

Thank you, Waxahachie Chamber, for your guidance and assistance during this exciting time. We are thrilled to be here and look forward to our next 144 years.
