About

Provided by Hicks Johnson PLLC

Hicks Johnson is a Houston, Texas-based litigation and arbitration boutique. Since its founding in 2007, the firm has defeated billions of dollars in claims for defendants and collected more than $500 million for plaintiffs across diverse industries. The firm's trial team (led by managing partner Andrew Hicks and founding partner Logan Johnson) routinely prevail at trial before federal and state courts throughout the U.S. for a wide range of clients, from market-leading companies to venture funds, startups, and individuals. Widely regarded as formidable courtroom opponents, they are often called upon to take over complex, hard-to-win cases on the eve of trial. 


In the past year alone, Hicks Johnson has represented a number of major energy players (such as Exxon Mobil) in big-ticket disputes that stand to significantly impact industry operations. Beyond its expertise in oil and gas/energy industry cases, the firm has substantial experience in construction, healthcare, and mass tort and product liability litigation. The firm also fields a strong arbitration team that punches far above its weight class, representing international and U.S.-based clients in matters ranging from complex international disputes to domestic disputes arbitrated under specialized rules.
