J. Clifton Hall III is a founding shareholder of Hall Maines Lugrin, which was started in 2000 as Westmoreland Hall. He practices mainly in the energy, property and casualty, construction, and professional indemnity sectors with a concentration on insurance coverage disputes, related commercial disputes, and subrogation matters.

His experience and pervasive knowledge of insurance-related cases has resulted in him arguing before the appellate courts of Louisiana and Texas (including in each state’s Supreme Court) as well as the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.

This year, Mr. Hall earned recognition in the 2021 Chambers USA guide for “Insurance-Texas.” He has been listed in Chambers USA as one of “America’s Leading Lawyers for Business” since 2010 and is consistently ranked as one of the top leading lawyers for insurance coverage by Texas Super Lawyers.
