Foley Adds Trio of Texas Talent

June 18, 2024 Brooks Igo

Foley announced Monday that it has enhanced its Texas roster with a litigation duo from Jackson Walker and a former Houston City Council member.

Trey McDonald and James McFall, the former Jackson Walker attorneys, join as partners, while Ronald Green joins as of counsel from Jones Walker.

“Trey and James bring invaluable experience and insights that enhance our ability to serve clients effectively, particularly in complex litigation disputes across industries such as sports, entertainment, and technology,” Daljit Doogal, Foley’s chair and CEO, said in the announcement.

“Ronald’s tenure as city controller and CFO for the City of Houston is instrumental in expanding our public finance capabilities. They are exceptional additions to our team, aligning seamlessly with our strategy to attract top lateral talent and bolster our presence in key markets.”

McDonald, who is based in Houston, focuses his practice on First Amendment, Lanham Act claims, false advertising, endorsement deals, publishing, and name, image, and likeness (NIL) matters. His clients have included Savannah and Bronny James, global supermodel Jasmine Tookes, Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons, NFL agent David Mulugheta, Dr. Mehmet Oz, and Sony Pictures Television. He received his law degree from the University of Texas and started his career in Big Law at Vorys.

Dallas lawyer McFall concentrates his practice on cases involving alleged fraud, tortious interference, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, theft of trade secrets, and media and entertainment litigation. His clients have included large national banks and financial institutions as well as professional athletes and sports franchises. He earned his law degree from Washington University in St. Louis.

McDonald and McFall, along with former Pinterest and LinkedIn executive Marcus Rance, are the cofounders of Lockerverse, a startup platform for college and pro athletes, creators, and artists to monetize their fanbases and offer exclusives by selling digital collectibles and merchandise. Last fall they entered into a deal with talent agency CAA.

During his tenure serving on the Houston City Council, Green led the issuance and refinancing of more than $15.5 billion in tax-exempt and $2.3 billion in taxable bonds. His law practice now focuses on corporate governance, public-private partnerships, government relations, and bond financings.
