A Message to the Citizens of Austin County:

Welcome to the Austin County District Attorney's website.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott appointed me to serve as Criminal District Attorney of Austin County.  I took the oath of office on April 24, 2025 before State Senator Lois Kolkhorst.

Since 2005, I have been proud to serve Austin County as a prosecutor in the District Attorney’s Office.  A Texas prosecutor’s greatest duty is “not to convict, but to see that justice is done.”  I am honored to continue that duty as Austin County’s District Attorney.

As Criminal District Attorney, I am responsible for overseeing the prosecution of all criminal offenses that occur in Austin County.   The greatest responsibilities I have are to respect the rights of all citizens, to defend the Constitution, and to whole-heartedly pursue justice and safety for everyone in our community.

These responsibilities are shared by all the members of my hard-working, competent, and motivated staff.

Should you have any specific questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me.  I am here to serve you.

Regards,

Brandy Robinson
