  • Atlas Unplugged: In Houston Lawyer’s Collection, the Past Unfolds - In his corner office in downtown Houston, history hangs from every wall.

    You don’t just see the maps. Centuries call out, empires rise (and fall) with each step you take in Joseph Ahmad’s office, where the past is still very much alive.

    The collection of maps bleeds out into the hallways of the skyscraper floors that the law firm Ahmad, Zavitsanos & Mensing occupies, jockeying for wall space alongside other works of art.

  • CSW Industrials GC Luke Alverson: ‘A Business Leader that Brings Legal Skills to the Table’ - Luke Alverson was a second-year associate at a large corporate firm with a nine-month-old daughter when his 23-year-old brother died in a car accident. “It hit me very hard. Losing Lance didn’t change my world view or values, but it certainly brought them into sharp focus," Alverson told The Texas Lawbook. “It was my ‘What do I want to be in my obituary?’ moment."

    Alverson reevaluated his career and is now the GC at CSW he has worked on 17 M&A transactions during the past decade valued at more than $1 billion, including the October 2025 acquisition of heating and air-conditioning parts supplier Motors & Armatures Parts for $650 million. The Association of Corporate Counsel’s DFW Chapter and The Lawbook named Alverson as one of three finalists for the 2025 DFW Corporate Counsel Award for General Counsel of the Year for a Small Legal Department.

  • Pro Bono Work Can be a Bulwark Against Burnout, Business Litigator Says in Return to Practice - There was a point in Jeffrey Price’s litigation career when he got a bad case of burnout. He left both his job and Dallas, ultimately turning to volunteer work with The Veterans Consortium Pro Bono Program, where he represented former military service members before the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. After more than a year of volunteering, Price joined the National Veterans Legal Services Program as an appellate attorney. It was through pro bono work on behalf of veterans that Price found the sense of purpose he had sought. Now, Price is returning to business litigation, joining Stinson as of counsel with a renewed perspective on the profession and a continued commitment to veterans pro bono work. He also hopes to encourage fellow lawyers to seek out pro bono opportunities that genuinely resonate — something he believes might have helped prevent his own burnout had he done so earlier.
