Hon. Dale Tillery: The Dallas Judge Always Free for a Lunch Hearing

Judge Dale Tillery of the 134th District Court is easily the busiest civil trial judge in Dallas County. But it’s not easy being the busiest.

Turning Obstacles into Triumphs

As a young man, I accompanied my dad to a bank to get a loan in hopes of opening an auto body shop. The loan officer denied us service, threw our completed paperwork at us and told we would never receive a loan from that bank or buy that business. That banker made certain that we knew we were not welcome in his world. And that is a major reason I’m a lawyer today. My story is the story of many.

CDT Roundup: 14 Deals, 18 Law Firms, 134 Texas Lawyers, $14.4B

  • My Five Favorite Books: Leigha Simonton (Member at Dykema and Former U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas) - I have a secret hobby that only my close friends know: I advise high-school seniors (and younger students) about college admissions, including helping them create a list of schools that would be good fits for their interests and aspirations as well as their family’s pocketbooks. This unpaid side-gig started years ago, when my oldest daughter began high school and I decided to try to “hack” the college admissions game. I don’t mean that I plotted to get her into a U.S. News top 10 school — no, I defined “winning” as finding a school that would allow her to flourish in college, set her up for success after college (success as defined by her, not me), and be somewhere our family could afford on what was then two government salaries. Here are my Five Favorite Books: College Application Edition. October 15, 2025Leigha Simonton
