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.

Counsel Award Winners: ‘It Was a Challenging Year’ - Brinker, Children’s Health, Comerica, Energy Transfer, Match, PGA, Schwab, Solo Brands and Trintech were the big winners Thursday night at the 2025 DFW Corporate Counsel Awards. Eight of the 14 award categories, including Business Litigation of the Year, M&A Transaction of the Year and Corporate Legal Department of the Year, featured multiple finalists, with judges describing them as photo finishes. More than 360 of the most prominent general counsel, senior in-house counsel and law firm partners celebrated the 2025 DFW Corporate Counsel Awards at the George W. Bush Institute. This was the ninth year that the Association of Corporate Counsel’s DFW Chapter and The Texas Lawbook partnered on the awards event. February 2, 2026Mark Curriden
  • Comerica Closes $10.9B Merger, Wins DFW Corp. Counsel Award for M&A Transaction of the Year - Fifth Third Bank's merger with Dallas-based Comerica was a complex mega-transaction put extraordinary pressure on the Comerica legal department, which was already being pushed to the limit on other matters. But the $10.9 billion transaction announced on Oct. 6 officially closed this morning at 12:02 a.m., a mere four months after the deal was announced. Citing their extraordinary accomplishments, the Association of Corporate Counsel’s DFW Chapter and The Texas Lawbook this past Thursday night honored the Comerica legal department and its outside counsel at Wachtell Lipton with the 2025 DFW M&A Transaction of the Year.
