Partners Krista Hanvey, Trey Cox, and Collin Cox were interviewed by Legal Business (subscription required) for an article on the growth of the Dallas market for Big Law firms. Krista said that “The Dallas market has shifted a lot. There’s a lot of competition, as we’re all going after the same Fortune 500 clients headquartered here.”

Trey mentioned that an influx of major banks and financial institutions increasing their investment in Dallas has impacted the legal market: “As more Fortune 500 companies and financial institutions come into the market, top 50 firms follow. With the bigger companies and the bigger law firms comes a more sophisticated set of legal services consumers. Everyone benefits from that – primarily the clients.”

Collin pointed out that the Texas Business Court has also played a role in driving demand in the Dallas market. “The business courts are another place where demand is expressing itself. It’s really exciting. It’s a great development for us,” he said.
