Marisa Cruz Hurd, a former senior staff attorney for the 14th Court of Appeals in Houston, has joined Texas appellate boutique Alexander Dubose & Jefferson.
While her experience spans civil, criminal and family-law appeals, Hurd, a former Baker Botts associate, developed significant expertise on corporate matters.
Alexander Dubose & Jefferson Managing Partner Marcy Hogan Greer said in a statement that Hurd’s “unique understanding of the workings of the appeals process” will “undoubtedly be of great benefit to our clients.”
