Attorneys and law firms in Houston

Houston is the centre of the US energy industry, and much of its legal work follows oil, gas, petrochemicals, LNG and the energy transition. Lawyers in Houston also serve the Port of Houston and its shipping and trade traffic, the Texas Medical Center, construction, real estate and a large international business community with strong ties to Latin America.

Attorneys practising in Texas must be licensed by the Supreme Court of Texas and be members of the State Bar of Texas, whose online directory shows whether a lawyer is in good standing and any public discipline. The Houston Bar Association is the local voluntary bar. Some attorneys are board certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in fields such as personal injury trial law or family law, which is worth checking. State cases are heard in the Harris County district and county courts, and federal cases in the Southern District of Texas, which has its main courthouse downtown. The district also handles a large share of complex commercial bankruptcy cases.

Residents most often need help with injury claims after car or workplace accidents, divorce and custody, criminal defense, wills and probate, and consumer or insurance disputes, including claims after hurricanes and floods. Businesses look for advice on energy contracts, maritime matters, employment and commercial litigation. Immigrants and international employees frequently consult Houston attorneys about visas, green cards and removal defense.

Fees vary by matter. Contingency fees are standard in personal injury, while business and family work is usually billed hourly, often with a retainer paid upfront. Texas rules require contingency agreements to be in writing. Many firms speak Spanish, and some offer Vietnamese, Mandarin, Hindi or Arabic.
