MehaffyWeber
MehaffyWeber was founded in 1946 as a litigation firm. As our clients’ needs expanded, we evolved into a broad-based regional law firm still with a strong emphasis in litigation. Our trial lawyers practice in state and federal courts throughout Texas and other states, and our firm functions as regional counsel for several clients. Our clients benefit from an extensive offering of services that encompasses most of the traditional areas of civil law covering a wide range of business and professional issues. Our attorneys, located in offices in Houston, Beaumont, San Antonio, and Austin, Texas, handle the legal interests from Fortune 100 corporations, medium and small businesses, as well as individuals. An important service is to keep our clients informed of developments in the major fields of law. Today, we combine the traditional values upon which our firm was founded with an advanced and proactive approach to the practice of law. We understand and appreciate that not all cases, or client situations, are alike. We tailor our approaches to best suit the individual needs of the client. We are proud to have a long record of winning cases in tough jurisdictions, but we also know that not all cases need to be tried. We use legal motions and other means to achieve positive results pre-trial, and when appropriate, we work hand in hand with our clients to secure advantageous settlements.
