As one of the first environmental law firms founded in Texas, Lloyd Gosselink has continually evolved to meet our clients’ ever-changing and expanding demands in new areas of expertise.

We assemble talented client teams focused on depth of knowledge, responsiveness, trust, and seamless, long-term continuity. We never forget that our actions today impact our clients’ futures and how our firm will serve them. Lloyd Gosselink was founded on the principle of teamwork that draws on the talents of everyone—professionals and support staff—to exceed our clients’ expectations. We also have a very Texan respect for the individual and the importance of family and a life outside the office. The result?
