The Woman Behind the Work
About Traci Ahart
Her Story
She’s been on
both sides of the table.
Traci Ahart is a West Texas native, a TCU and St. Mary’s Law School graduate, and one of the most in-demand family mediators in Texas — averaging 30 to 35 mediations a month because Texas attorneys and courts trust Traci with the “cases that will never settle.”.
But her authority doesn’t come from textbooks. It comes from having lived the exact situations her clients are walking through. Two divorces. Fifteen years as a single mother. A battle with clinical depression that led her to an intensive outpatient program in 2014. A non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma diagnosis, a relapse, and a bone marrow transplant that she navigated with the same defiant grace she brings into every mediation room.
She attended her final chemotherapy session in a hot pink ball gown, a tiara, and stilettos. That’s not a detail — that’s who she is.
She transitioned from family law attorney to full-time mediator in 2017, and she has spent every year since building a practice around one conviction: families deserve agreements built around their actual lives, not boilerplate settlements that collapse under the weight of real people.

West Texas roots.
Central Texas home.
Traci lives in Williamson County with her husband — a law enforcement officer of over 35 years — and her Border Collie “granddogs,” Gidget and Trigger. She is the mother to an adult son who serves in a tactical unit of the US Coast Guard in South Florida, where he lives with her amazing daughter-in-law. She is a stepmother to two adult stepsons — one a U.S. Army veteran and another who works with special needs children.
When she isn’t mediating, she can be found at the Pilates studio working on her teacher certification, or in the kitchen whipping up the latest recipe she found on TikTok or Instagram.
Beauty, brains,
and the one who keeps the train on the track.
The beauty, brains, and organization behind the scenes, Arysun is the one who keeps the train on the proverbial track. Traci couldn’t manage without her. A 2021 graduate of Texas State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Public Administration, Arysun is always one step ahead — serving as the heart of our team.
Originating from Lago Vista, Texas on the north shore of Lake Travis, she currently resides in Fort Lauderdale, Florida with her hubby, a tactical operator in the U.S. Coast Guard, and their kitties — Bunny, Moose, and Rooster. Her Border Collie baby, Trigger, is on loan to Traci for now.
Arysun loves traveling, music, history, films, current events, cooking for her friends and family, and being “Auntie Arysun” to all of her biological and adopted nieces and nephews.
Hey, y’all! This job has brought me so much peace and flexibility. I am able to work from virtually anywhere, while keeping the business running efficiently and making sure we accommodate attorneys and their clients. One of the most important things for me is making sure the attorneys and parties I come in contact with remember how friendly and prompt I am. I’m quite the empath and at times I know people are experiencing a lot of stress and heavy emotion during divorce or child custody situations. I always love for them to know I care and will do everything in my power to ease their stress and provide a little reassurance that everything will be taken care of.
