About Alex
Biography
A construction lawyer who actually tries cases.
Alex Bell is a construction litigation lawyer based in Dallas, Texas. With a rare dual focus on both trial and appellate practice, Alex handles high-exposure matters from the earliest stages of a dispute through discovery, trial, judgment, and appeal — delivering value at every stage without the need to hand off to an appellate specialist.
He represents architects, engineers, contractors, and owners in breach of contract claims, professional negligence, premises liability, wrongful death, and complex commercial disputes requiring both business acumen and exceptional legal skill. Alex has presented oral argument before the Texas Supreme Court and multiple Texas Courts of Appeals, with a primary focus on the Fifth Court of Appeals in Dallas.
