The Button Law Firm is proud to celebrate two major recognitions for our leadership team in 2026.
Founding partner Russell Button has been selected to the 2026 Texas Super Lawyers list, an exclusive recognition reserved for the top 5% of attorneys in Texas. Super Lawyers is a research-driven, peer-influenced rating service recognizing attorneys who have achieved a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement.
Managing partner Ashley Knarr has been selected to the 2026 Texas Rising Stars list, which recognizes just 2.5% of attorneys in Texas who meet the Rising Stars eligibility requirements.
For our team, these recognitions are especially meaningful because they reflect two attorneys who have spent years building The Button Law Firm together and shaping the way we serve children and families.
At The Button Law Firm, we represent kids in daycare and child injury cases to help them get life-changing results and justice against bad daycares, schools, and companies that abuse and neglect the safety of children.
Russell Button and Ashley Knarr: Leading The Button Law Firm Together
Russell and Ashley have spent years building The Button Law Firm around a shared belief: families deserve a team that listens, communicates clearly, educates them throughout the process, and continues to look for better ways to help them move forward.
Together, Russell and Ashley lead the attorneys and staff at BLF, work closely on daycare and child-injury cases, and set expectations for how every family should be treated.
Their leadership styles complement one another. Russell brings the vision and drive that helped build the firm’s focus on protecting children, while Ashley brings the organization, compassion, and attention to detail that help turn that vision into the way the team works every day.
They work together on strategy, support the attorneys around them, and continue to push the team to grow so that families receive the strongest representation possible.

Why These Recognitions Matter to Our Team
Russell’s selection to the 2026 Texas Super Lawyers list and Ashley’s selection to the 2026 Texas Rising Stars list recognize them individually, but our team sees these honors as connected.
They reflect years of working together, building a team, developing attorneys, and creating a culture centered around making a difference, education, communication, family and team, and believing in better.
Strong legal work matters, but so does how families are treated along the way. Russell and Ashley have worked together to make sure both remain at the center of The Button Law Firm.
Their recognitions are a proud moment for our entire team because they reflect the leadership behind the work we do every day.
Continuing to Raise the Standard
Neither Russell nor Ashley approaches recognition as a finish line.
They continue to grow The Button Law Firm’s work in daycare and child injury cases, mentor the attorneys and team members around them, and look for better ways to support families throughout the legal process.
We are proud to see Russell recognized on the 2026 Texas Super Lawyers list and Ashley recognized on the 2026 Texas Rising Stars list, and even more proud of the work they continue doing when no award is involved.
