OUR JOURNEY:

– our first steps

In 2008, after five years working in transportation law representing a major railroad and several shipping lines, A&M and SMU graduate deborah lawson launched a private practice with the mission to serve the often-forgotten middle-class by providing unique solutions to legal questions.

– our journey

In the early years, deborah championed non-profits, helping with formation and governance, before turning to focus on families and family-owned businesses, especially in the LGBTQ+ community. Today, we are proud to have helped hundreds of families and businesses in Houston and throughout Texas.

– our destination

To be the go-to firm that champions the often forgotten middle class, providing answers to legal questions without getting stuck in the financially burdensome labyrinth of litigation.
