Only a Distinguished Few Are Chosen

Lawyers who are Board Certified have the right to present themselves as specialists in their specific area of law. According to the State Bar of Texas, attorneys who are Board Certified are the only ones who are allowed to call themselves specialists.

The process of board certification is voluntary and is accomplished by an attorney with:

  • More than five years of experience in that field of law
  • Minimum of three years’ experience in the specialty area
  • Ongoing involvement in the specialty area
  • Continuing legal education work

Because of the extensive qualifications needed, very few attorneys become Board Certified. As of 2012, only 7,000 of the 70,000 attorneys in Texas were Board Certified. Our attorneys are among the select few. When you choose a lawyer who is Board Certified, you can trust that your case will be handled with care from a specialist in that field.
