Our History
Past
In handling real estate transactions for Burnet County, Alvin discovered the need for a more efficient, faster service locally. Together with Camm Lary and Eugene Russell, Attorneys Abstract was formed. The company was originally housed in, what is now, the Burnet County Courthouse Annex building. In 1975, Attorney’s Abstract moved into what would be it’s home for over 43 years at the corner of Washington and Pierce on Burnet’s Historical Downtown Square.
Cody Henson graduated Cum Laude from the New England School of Law in Boston, Massachusetts. Prior to attending law school, Cody obtained his Bachelors of Business Administration from Texas Tech University and later obtained his Masters of Business Administration. He is a licensed Texas Attorney who began his career as a prosecutor in Houston. In 2009 Cody returned to his hometown of Georgetown, Texas where he was a felony prosecutor in the Williamson County District Attorney’s Office. As a prosecutor, he tried numerous misdemeanor and felony jury trials and prosecuted hundreds of other criminal offenses. In 2011, Cody and his family relocated to the Hill Country where he opened a law practice of his own.
