Located in downtown Houston, Texas, near the federal and state courthouses, the firm has its roots in the defense of personal-injury cases. The nature of the cases tried by the firm has changed over the years to encompass almost all areas of civil litigation. Seven firm members have been certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in Personal Injury Trial Law. Three members of the firm are also certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in Civil Trial Law. The head of the firm's appellate section is triple board certified. Certification requires knowledge of the law, recommendations of peers, and significant courtroom experience. Seven of our attorneys have been inducted into the prestigious American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA). Founded in 1957, ABOTA selects attorneys from both sides of the docket who display integrity, civility, and advocacy; members must meet the Board's stringent requirements. One shareholder, Charlie Lyman, is a Diplomat member of ABOTA, a membership status achieved only by trial lawyers who have tried a minimum of 100 civil-jury trials to a verdict.
