Jamie Katzen has established a legal career centered on helping families preserve their wealth, organize their estates, and prepare for future generations. Based in Dallas, Texas, he brings more than fifteen years of experience in trusts and estates law, offering guidance on legal and tax matters that affect individuals, families, and their long-term financial plans. As a partner at Katzen Fooshee, PLLC, he works with clients to develop practical strategies that address both present needs and future goals.

Jamie believes estate planning should never be treated as a routine legal process. Every family has different priorities, financial circumstances, and personal objectives that deserve careful attention. He approaches each client relationship by listening first and then providing advice tailored to those individual needs. By creating an environment where clients feel comfortable asking questions, he helps make complicated legal matters easier to understand and navigate.

Jamie's legal practice covers a broad range of trusts and estates services. He regularly assists clients with trusts and estates, asset protection, family wealth preservation, estate and trust administration, probate administration, and tax mitigation. This experience enables him to guide clients through every stage of estate planning, from preparing legal documents to administering estates when the need arises. His work is focused on helping clients protect what they have built while planning responsibly for the future.

Jamie recognizes that successful estate planning involves more than legal documents alone. It requires thoughtful conversations about family goals, financial security, and long-term planning. Rather than relying on a single approach, he develops recommendations based on each client's circumstances. His commitment to individualized service has become an important part of the relationships he builds with the families he represents.

Education has played an important role in preparing Jamie for the legal and tax issues involved in estate planning. He earned a Master of Laws (LL.M.) in Taxation from Southern Methodist University's Dedman School of Law in 2012. Earlier, he received his Juris Doctor (J.D.) from St. Mary's University School of Law in 2008 after completing a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Kansas in 2005. This academic background provides valuable insight into the tax considerations that often influence estate planning decisions.

An important milestone in Jamie’s career was celebrating five years as a partner at Katzen Fooshee, PLLC. The achievement reflects years of dedication to his clients, his colleagues, and the firm's continued growth. It also represents the confidence that clients have placed in his legal judgment throughout his career.

Outside the office, Jamie believes in giving back through community involvement. He has volunteered with Meals on Wheels, the North Texas Food Bank, and Operation Kindness. He also serves as a board member of Congregation Shearith Israel, contributing his time and leadership to support his local community. These activities demonstrate his belief that professional success should be accompanied by meaningful service.

Born in London, England, and raised in Dallas, Texas, Jamie has built both his personal life and legal career in the community he proudly calls home. He and his wife are raising twin boys, and he enjoys spending time with family whenever possible. Away from work, his interests include golf, tennis, skiing, travel, cooking, history, historical fiction, and cheering for the Dallas Cowboys.

Jamie Katzen continues to help clients navigate trusts and estates matters with professionalism, careful planning, and personalized attention. By combining legal experience with a commitment to clear communication and practical solutions, he helps families protect their assets and prepare for the future with greater confidence. His dedication to thoughtful representation remains the foundation of the service he provides to every client.
