In this milestone 30th episode of Cases & Cocktails, Austin-based family law attorneys Bryan and Janice Eggleston celebrate the journey so far. Broadcasting from Austin, Texas, the duo reflects on three seasons of candid legal conversations, emotional stories, and unforgettable cocktails—always served with Texas authenticity and a splash of lime.
Their drink of choice? A fresh twist on a local favorite: Ranch Water, mixed with G4 tequila, Topo Chico, fresh lime, and mint.
A Look Back at 30 Episodes of Real Family Law in Texas
Since launching the podcast, the Egglestons have amplified the voices of parents, attorneys, advocates, and former clients throughout Central Texas—especially right here in Austin. Many of their guests have faced high-conflict custody disputes, parental alienation, addiction, and personal loss.
These conversations go far beyond courtroom strategy. The podcast has opened the door to legislative involvement, collaborations with advocacy groups, and a growing listener base throughout Travis County and surrounding communities.
Notable past guests have included:
- Rod McCall, on parental loss and systemic reform
- Robert Garza, who turned personal pain into powerful advocacy
- Former clients navigating complex custody and divorce in Austin
What Family Law Looks Like—Beyond the Courtroom
As experienced Austin family law attorneys, Bryan and Janice bring deep legal knowledge to each case. But the podcast has transformed their perspective. Hearing raw, unfiltered stories has strengthened their ability to guide clients through the emotional landscape of divorce, custody disputes, and family violence cases across the Austin area.
Not all surprises have been welcome. The Egglestons reveal that some opposing attorneys have tried to disqualify professionals from Travis County family law cases solely for participating on the podcast. Though frustrating, these attempts have only increased the couple’s commitment to open, honest legal dialogue.
Laughs, Lime, and Looking Ahead
The lighter moments are part of the journey too. From sugar-rimmed mishaps to behind-the-scenes bloopers (including Bryan’s beard catching a garnish or two), the podcast has never shied away from fun.
Looking forward, the Egglestons have big ideas for future episodes:
- Interviewing a sitting judge from Austin
- Recording episodes on location across Texas
- Featuring more guests with personal experience in Texas family courts
- Expanding into video platforms and seeking local sponsorships
Despite criticism—including the occasional bathroom stall comment—the Egglestons remain committed to making family law more human and more accessible.
