About Brandon
Biography
I focus my practice in construction/surety litigation, but also commercial disputes, including landlord/tenant matters, complex bankruptcies, and fidelity policies. My legal experience covers a diverse cross-section of jurisprudence, with previous clerkships at a civil defense firm, as well as the Travis County District Attorneys’ Office.
I am admitted in Florida, Texas, the United States Supreme Court, U.S. District Courts for the Northern, Eastern, Southern, and Western Districts of Texas, the Northern District of Flofirda, the Western District of Oklahoma, and the Eastern and Western Districts of Arkansas.

Brandon Kevin Bains's Lawyer Endorsements
"I've been working with Brandon for several years, and I think he is a top notch litigator (even if he incorrectly uses two spaces after periods). Brandon stays on top of target dates, doesn't miss deadlines, and produces a high quality work product in each of his areas of practice. His goal of simplifying complex cases, facilitating early resolution, and avoiding unnecessary expenses go a long way in fostering client satisfaction."
