Attorney Profile

Emma Huff

Emma Huff is a valued member of the Leasor Crass, P.C. team, where she focuses her practice on representing Texas public school districts. Her path to education law has been both deliberate and deeply personal, and her work for school district clients reflects the genuine investment she brings to every matter she handles.

Born in Wichita Falls, Texas, Emma is a proud graduate of Mansfield’s own Summit High School. She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Dance Performance with Highest Honors and a minor in Business Administration from the University of Texas at Austin, where she was inducted into the inaugural cohort of the B.A. Theatre and Dance Honors Program and co-founded SafeHorns, a student government agency committed to improving campus safety. Emma went on to earn her law degree from SMU Dedman School of Law in 2022, where she served as President of the Energy Law Association and was certified through the Robert B. Rowling Center for Business Law and Leadership. She was also inducted into the Pro Bono College of the State Bar of Texas for her contributions to SMU’s COVID-19 Legal Helpline, a project recognized by both the White House and the United States Department of Justice. While Emma’s academic record reflects breadth and distinction, her professional passion has always been education law, and she has built her practice around that commitment.

As the daughter of a high school football coach, Emma has a firsthand understanding of the demands placed on educators and administrators and of the profound influence they have on the students they serve. Equally important, Emma grew up advocating for her younger brother, who has severe autism, within Texas public schools. That experience gave her a rare and invaluable dual perspective. She understands the needs of special education students and their families with the depth of a lifelong advocate, and she understands the operational realities facing the districts charged with serving them. School district clients consistently benefit from the perspective and care she brings to her work.

Outside of her work with clients, Emma is deeply committed to her community. She is a proud member of Leadership Mansfield’s Class Sweet 16 and was named one of Mansfield Business Alliance’s 40 Under 40 for 2026.
