For three decades, Hilda Galvan has established herself as one of the most successful IP litigators in the U.S. and a highly respected leader in the legal profession. She has won huge cases for IBM, Charles Schwab, OnStar, Motorola and Compass Bank. After nearly three decades at global legal giant Jones Day — including a decade as the managing partner of its Dallas office — Galvan has decided to step away to “seek new opportunities to make an impact.”

“I plan to dedicate my efforts to consulting with technology startups, joining corporate boards and deepening my involvement in nonprofit boards and community engagement,” Galvan told The Texas Lawbook. “This allows me to leverage my experience and passion in ways that will drive meaningful change.”
