Vinson & Elkins Turns 100

William Vinson and James Elkins sat next to each other at a July 1917 memorial service for Vinson’s law partner who had died. Both men were reared in small towns: Vinson in Sherman, Elkins in Huntsville. Each needed a law partner. A century later, the law firm that bears their names is one of the most powerful in Texas and widely viewed as the most influential legal practice in the oil patch.

  • Shell US Lawyers Adam MacLuckie and Huyen Luong Have a ‘Need to be an Ally’ - Adam MacLuckie and Huyen Luong led the Shell US Legal DEI Council during a pivotal time, fostering open dialogue and community through their “Let’s Talk About It” campaign as the company returned to in-person work post-pandemic and amid a nationwide reckoning with racism. Drawing from their personal backgrounds – Luong’s journey from post-war Vietnam and MacLuckie’s lifelong path to allyship – they built inclusive, two-way engagement that increased participation and trust. Their efforts earned them the 2025 Houston Corporate Counsel Award for Diversity and Inclusion.  May 20, 2025Krista Torralva
  • Baker Hughes’ ‘Fearless’ VP of Litigation: Teresa Garcia-Reyes  - Baker Hughes shifted from defendant to plaintiff in a years-long legal battle with LiquidPower Specialty Products, overcoming patent infringement claims through inter partes review while building a strong antitrust case. This strategy, spanning U.S. and Canadian courts and the Patent Office, enabled Baker Hughes to settle in December 2024 and clear the way for a new product launch. Vice President of Litigation Teresa Garcia-Reyes, who oversees about 80 attorneys, emphasized the high stakes involved. “We are an energy technology company, so we take IP cases and the effect that they have on the ability to market our products very seriously,” she said. “There was real money at stake here, and it had been going on for so long, that it was nice to drive this one to closure.” The Association of Corporate Counsel’s Houston Chapter and The Texas Lawbook congratulate Garcia-Reyes for being selected as one of two finalists for the 2025 Houston Corporate Counsel Award for Business Litigation of the Year. The awards ceremony is set for May 22 at the Four Seasons downtown. May 19, 2025Michelle Casady
