Hembree Bell Law Firm founder and CEO Hannah Hembree Bell has been named to Inc.’s 2026 Female Founders 500, an annual list recognizing women business leaders in the United States. The 500 honorees collectively generated about $12.3 billion in 2025 revenue and have raised $12.2 billion in funding to date. Bell leads a Texas family law practice focused on divorce and complex family matters, and she created My Confident Divorce, an education platform designed to make the divorce process more accessible and informed. Her selection follows Inc.’s review of business performance, innovation, social impact, and brand momentum.
