Law360 named Haynes and Boone, LLP as a 2018 “Texas Powerhouse,” citing the firm's handling of an “impressive series of cases and transactions, including a $1 billion offering that allowed the CEO of Landry’s to purchase the Houston Rockets, a $3.8 billion merger for an oil and gas company, and defeating a gambling suit against the NFL.”
Haynes and Boone was among five Texas-based firms chosen for the recognition.
Tim Powers, managing partner at Haynes and Boone, told Law360 that both the national platform and the Texas roots are a benefit for the firm. “We can do things in Texas now that we wouldn’t be able to do if we weren't a national firm,” he said. “And I think we recognize in our other offices that there are a lot of strengths that our Texas base brings that allow us to do things in those markets that our lawyers wouldn’t be able to have the chance to do [otherwise].”
