  • Zachry Legal Team ‘Gets to Yes Without Compromising Legal Integrity’ - San Antonio trial lawyer Jay Old scored major courtroom successes in his 38-year career but the biggest hits have come in 2024 and 2025 when he and his legal team helped guide Zachry through a turbulent period of extraordinary challenge, including leading the energy services company to a transformational corporate restructuring. In addition, Old and his team of six attorneys and 17 other professionals this year negotiated an historic engineering, procurement and construction contract with Duke Energy for a natural gas power plant in North Carolina and separately signed a memorandum of understanding with Hyundai Engineering and Construction that created a partnership focused on nuclear power construction.

    Citing the Zachry legal team’s achievements in 2024 and 2025, the Association of Corporate Counsel’s San Antonio Chapter and The Lawbook are awarding the 2025 San Antonio Corporate Counsel Award for Corporate Legal Department of the Year.

  • VSP Visions’ Two Lisas and Their Historic Constitutional Fifth Circuit Win - Lisa Fields and Lisa Hill, top corporate counsel at VSP Vision, faced a critical legal and business decision in 2023 that would have a monumental impact on the future of their companies. A new Texas law posed an existential threat to their business. Fields and Hill recognized that suing the state of Texas to block the law would be extremely expensive. "We knew we had to take a direct attack, and we knew it would be a bold move to sue the state. And we knew we had to make a statement that we would not have our constitutional rights trampled,” Fields told The Texas Lawbook.

    On May 23, Hill and Fields received an email at 10:43 a.m. from Dykema partner Christopher Kratovil. The subject line: “Good news from New Orleans.” A three-judge panel of the Fifth Circuit had unanimously awarded Visionworks a complete victory. The Association of Corporate Counsel’s San Antonio Chapter and The Lawbook are honoring Fields, Hill and the litigation team at Dykema with the 2025 San Antonio Corporate Counsel Award for Business Litigation of the Year.
