Nat’l Law Firm Invasion into Texas Changes Legal Marketplace

More than 600 Texas lawyers during the past five years have left local based firms to start or grow the Texas practices of national law firms. About 30 out-of-state law firms have opened in Dallas, Houston and Austin since Feb. 2010. Virginia-based LeClairRyan and California-based Quinn Emanuel opened Houston offices in July.

The national law firms have offered multimillion-dollar guaranteed contracts to senior partners with large books of business. Even mid-level associates with no portable business were offered signing bonuses as high as $75,000.

The Texas Lawbook examines the trend and how it impacts the legal marketplace.

  • Chris Blevins: Navigating Solo Brands Through Crisis and Into Renewed Growth - As a teenager and college student, Chris Blevins watched his father — an accountant turned business entrepreneur — negotiate contracts, do deals with vendors and handle issues with clients and customers.

    “I was taking a few business and law-related classes, and I started realizing that the things that frustrated him weren’t about the product or the customers, they were about navigating legal and contractual issues that felt foreign and risky,” Blevins said. “It clicked for me that I could be someone who helped businesses run better by removing the friction and risk around these issues, making things clearer and easier.”

    For Blevins, the career strategy paid major dividends in 2025 when he scored some huge successes for Grapevine-based Solo Brands. As such, the Association of Corporate Counsel’s DFW Chapter and The Lawbook have named Blevins as a finalist for the 2025 DFW Corporate Counsel Award for General Counsel of the Year for a Small Legal Department (two to five attorneys).
