Looking more broadly? All court filings and attorneys in Galveston County, or search every Texas attorney by name.

Case counts reflect tax matters in Galveston County public court records matched to each attorney's State Bar of Texas record. A higher count indicates more experience handling this case type in this county; it is not an endorsement or a measure of outcomes. Filing totals count each case once, so they are lower than the sum of the per-attorney counts above.
