U.S. Supreme Court advocate and Dallas appellate lawyer Daniel Geyser has joined forces with the prominent Texas appellate boutique Alexander Dubose Jefferson.
Geyser, who most recently ran his own firm, will chair the ADJ U.S. Supreme Court and federal appellate practice. The Harvard Law graduate has argued eight merits cases in the U.S. Supreme Court’s past three terms.
“Alexander Dubose & Jefferson is an absolute powerhouse in the Texas appellate space,” Geyser said in a statement. “These are titans of the Texas bar. From top to bottom, the firm’s roster is a dream team of appellate superstars. This rare collection of sophisticated, high-end talent is a perfect fit for an elite U.S. Supreme Court and national appellate practice. And I find it particularly special that the team’s extraordinary talent is matched only by its kindness and collegiality.”
In addition to being one of the most active Texas lawyers before the nation’s high court, Geyser has represented clients in the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the Second, Third, Fifth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Eleventh, and Federal Circuits. He has special expertise at the rehearing stage where he has recently handled high-stakes cases involving subjects such as securities, patents, ERISA, arbitration and bankruptcy.
ADJ managing partner Marcy Hogan Greer said Geyser “will take our federal appellate practice to the next level.”
A former assistant solicitor general for the State of Texas, Geyser has also argued seven times in the Texas Supreme Court.
Prior to opening his own firm in May 2018 and after serving four years in the Texas Attorney General’s Office, Geyser gained experience at a few different law firms – Stris & Maher, McKool Smith and Gibson Dunn.
Earlier in his career, Geyser practiced at the Los Angeles law firm Munger, Tolles & Olson, where he won the State Bar of California’s Wiley W. Manuel Award for Pro Bono Legal Services in 2006 and was appointed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit Pro Bono Panel.
