Bailey Michell, Partner
Born and raised in DFW, Bailey returned to Fort Worth to attend Texas A&M University School of Law after attending Texas A&M for her undergraduate degree.
After graduating from law school, Bailey spent several years at the Tarrant County Criminal District Attorney’s office where she prosecuted felony and misdemeanor offenses. She gained invaluable courtroom experience by trying numerous jury trials and handling other hearings before the court. She spent most of her time as a prosecutor handling only domestic violence cases and now uses that experience to zealously defend her clients accused of similar offenses.
Bailey then left the District Attorney’s office to embrace a new challenge. She joined a nationally recognized civil firm, where she dove into civil litigation. Working with the firm's seasoned attorneys, Bailey represented major corporations and individuals in intricate civil matters, including contract disputes, employment discrimination cases, and class-action lawsuits. This experience broadened her legal acumen, strategic thinking, and negotiation skills, making her a formidable advocate inside and outside the courtroom.
Bailey is now a founding partner and attorney at MTT Law. Her unique blend of experiences as a former prosecutor and a seasoned civil litigator gives her clients and advantage in-and-outside the courtroom.
