Todd W. Mensing focuses on complex commercial litigation. Having tried more than 50 cases, Todd is Board Certified in Civil Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a distinction reserved for Texas trial lawyers with a high degree of trial experience and expertise. During the last ten years, an average of fewer than five attorneys per year statewide has earned the distinction.
Todd is recognized among the top lawyers in the nation for commercial litigation and construction litigation in The Best Lawyers in America. Todd is also recognized in Texas General Commercial Litigation in the 2014-2024 editions of Chambers USA: America’s Leading Lawyers for Business. Clients reported to Chambers USA that Todd is “unequalled” among commercial litigators, “whip smart,” a “brilliant strategist,” and a “great trial lawyer.” Todd earned the highest possible AV Preeminent rating based upon peer reviews from Martindale Hubbell. He has also been named one of the top 100 lawyers in Houston and in Texas on the annual list of Super Lawyers. The IAM Patent 1000 ranked Todd as a leading Texas patent litigation litigator, and LawDragon has named Todd one of the country’s top 500 litigators.
Todd has tried cases in many areas, including complex commercial litigation; intellectual property and trade secrets; executive employment; catastrophic personal injury; as well as white collar criminal defense.
Prior to joining AZA, Todd graduated with honors and in the top five percent of his class at the University of Texas School of Law. He obtained his undergraduate degree with honors from Stanford University.
