Who We Are
We are construction lawyers. We handle complex commercial construction cases from contract to closeout and all kinds of disputes in between. And while we may be one of the largest construction law firms in Texas, that isn’t the whole story.
What makes Allensworth unique isn’t just what we do, but how we do it. Everything about our firm’s operation is designed to support the principles behind the way we practice law. And it all boils down to a handful of objectives that guide our work and our firm.
Do a Damn Fine Job
Consistent excellence matters most. Great legal work has unmistakable qualities—it’s thorough, it’s strategic, and it’s driven by the client’s priorities and goals. That’s how we help pave a client-specific, project-specific path to daylight.
Delivering damn fine legal work is also anticipatory—it’s proactive, not reactive. No one likes surprises when their projects and livelihoods are on the line. We are careful to use the right legal tools for the job. Our work addresses the issue at hand, is appropriately aggressive and thoughtful, and gets our clients where they want to go.

Infrastructure
Construction is complicated. Endless moving parts and a broad array of actors and interests combine to create a project. This requires professionals from all disciplines—contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers, owners, developers—it’s a long list. Our law firm has represented and counseled all of them, and this gives us our major advantage—our 360° View.
When a client presents us with a situation, we look at it from multiple angles. We understand the parties’ priorities and how they think. We know exactly what an owner faced with a stack of mechanic’s liens is up against, as well as the subcontractors who filed them. Our attorneys craft strategies that leverage those forces and create a path to closeout. This makes us both effective and proactive. When it comes to construction law, we’re not only a mile wide, but also a mile deep.
