Bernadette Machicado

Legal Assistant and Drafting Team
Bernadette R. Machicado, better known as Birdie, was born and raised in a small city near Fort Worth, Texas. She graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and has found the power of systems an integral and crucial component to improve efficiencies in the workplace. She has a passion for law and believes systems can be utilized to better help our clients, team and attorneys. She previously assisted partner, Rex Hogue, and is now part of the drafting team.
Birdie and her husband, Julio, were married in 2017 and have a beautiful, blended family with two daughters and one son. They are members of First Baptist Church at the Fields where they both serve on the Kid’s Ministry Team as teachers to precious 1st graders. They have been blessed to know the love of Christ and believe sharing the gospel and being an extension of his love is the most important mission in this world. Birdie hopes to live out this mission as part of Haiman Hogue’s foundational belief to faithfully serve God, our clients, and community.
When Birdie is not at work, she likes to spend her time with her family, signing them up for 5Ks, finding new places to eat and new places to see, as well as trying her best not to kill her plants.
