If you ask Tom how he has managed to successfully represent his many clients in construction, real estate, tort, and commercial disputes, he will tell you that preparation is the key, giving much of the credit to his trusted partner, associates, and staff. His clients, however, would tell you that it is Tom’s experience, industry knowledge, and integrity that have earned him their trust and business. His peers agree. Tom received an AV rating from Martindale Hubbell’s peer review rating system – the highest rating available. Since graduating from Texas A&M University and SMU’s Dedman School of Law, Tom has built his practice representing a broad range of clients including national homebuilders, local real estate developers, custom builders, realtors, commercial contractors, and suppliers.  He is frequently asked to speak and write for various trade organizations, and has twice been recognized as a Rising Star in the Super Lawyers edition of the Texas Monthly magazine.

I highly recommend Tom Stauch
Tom Stauch has represented me a number of times. As a contractor, it is rare to find an attorney that understands my business as well as the law. Tom is just that attorney.

Great attorney!

Thomas Stauch - Lawyer Review
Mr. Stauch is a wonderful lawyer - great with communication and very intelligent! I felt confident throughout the case with Mr. Stauch as my lawyer.

I was very pleased with the services I received from Thomas Stauch.
He helped me with legal matters in handling property in Medida, Mexico. He gave me the convidence that was needed to proceed with the sale of properties and was always available if needed.

Skeptical no more
My case was a legal malpractice case. I had very little trust for lawyers. Upon my initial meeting, I immediately felt that Tom was genuinely concerned about me and my situation. As they spoke with me, I knew that they would aggressively work in my behalf. They were committed and kept me informed as promised. I was pleasantly surprised that they treated me like a ‘person’ and not just a case number. They accommodated my work hours and met with me in the evening so I wouldn’t have to miss any work. Tom was extremely polite and always displayed confidence. I would highly recommend Tom and his firm without hesitation.
