MY PERSONAL LIFE

Born and raised in East Texas, I'm a graduate of Whitehouse High School (Go Wildcats!) and UT Tyler (Go Patriots!). My education took me away from East Texas for 3.5 years and, having been back since 2006, I have no desire to ever leave. And I mean that almost literally, as I don't care to travel, much less move.

That said, my wife does talk me into the occasional family trip. ;)

On that note, I'm quite taken with my bride (“The Fair Tish,” as I call her) and my two kids.

In my off-time, you're likely to find me:

• On a date with my wife,
• Coaching my kids’ Upward basketball or soccer games,
• Preparing to teach Sunday School,
• Watching Texas Tech football or basketball (Wreck’em!),
• In the stands at The Patriot Center watching UT Tyler basketball with my family,
• Reading a book, or
• Fellowshipping with men from my church

MY PROFESSIONAL LIFE

After graduating from the Texas Tech School of Law (Wreck'em!), I began my career as an associate attorney before becoming a partner at a larger firm. Eventually, my entrepreneurial drive led me to open my own practice. Today, The McGuire Firm is a team of attorneys that handles personal injury cases not only in Tyler, but across the state of Texas. To date, we have handled 3,000+ cases from East Texas to Midland and from DFW to Galveston.
