About Erin and Erin McClarty PLLC
Erin McClarty
Founder and Principal Facilitator |
I’m from a neighborhood similar to the neighborhoods my clients work with, support, or come from. Trained in connecting dots and story-telling (plus business operations, strategy, and design) my work comes down to that little girl from Alief wanting to empower her community and make the world better.
A mix between a business coach, attorney, designer, and community activator; as a social impact architect I help you get clear, take action, and translate your big ideas into next steps. Together, we create structures, programs, initiatives, or businesses that reflect you, your organizations, or your communities. My approach is to reflect your stories, reflect your triumphs, reflect your struggles and your hope. Speaking of approach, I don’t use big words or models to impress. I work in a way that includes the client, is easily understood, and interdisciplinary. I also honor the community elder as much as I do the Harvard case-study. To do this, I don’t just think outside of the box; I find ways to use the box differently. What is unique is my license to practice law. This means you and I don't have to stop at the good idea. You only work with, and pay, one person from start to finish. I even build teams to manage your projects inclusively, accessibly, and affordably. I truly believe all of the answers to the world's challenges are in the communities and those who serve them. It’s just a matter of meeting people where they are, and using my education, training, and background to empower. That’s enough of that. I’ve worked for small nonprofits, world renowned nonprofits, run a business, and managed legal in Fortune 500 companies so the range and expertise are there.

Erin McClarty, PLLC Team
Early on, the decision was made to work as a collective. Artificially bloating out the team would mean raising prices for clients, or running clients in and out to keep enough work to keep the team.
Instead, we work with other businesses, consultants, and practitioners on a project basis. This means clients don't pay for inflation while benefiting from multiple perspectives, lived experiences, and expertise. It also means we are able to build teams that support the client and their specific needs, instead of imposing what we have on the client. This results in projects that have more depth and more responsiveness to the community while providing clients more support, more tools, and higher quality deliverables for their dollars.

Erin McClarty PLLC Approach
Community first. We're here for the community and the greater impact.
We are interdisciplinary and multi-faceted. Your challenges are never purely legal; they're a mix of community, business, legal, etc. So that's how I approach what we do. Sprinkling in what I've learned from science, arts, culture, language, and other experiences I've had.
You are a collegue and co-learner. No power dynamics.
We build, plan, strategize, and grow in ways that explores, experiments, and is flexible. This is what helps keep you reslient, adaptive, and ready for change or unexpected surprises.
