Fogler, Brar, O’Neil & Gray includes four other former Beck Redden lawyers
HOUSTON – High-stakes commercial litigation attorney Murray Fogler of Houston is announcing the formation of the complex commercial law firm Fogler, Brar, O’Neil & Gray LLP.
Mr. Fogler founded the firm with fellow litigators Jas Brar, Robin O’Neil and Michelle Gray. All previously practiced with Houston’s Beck Redden LLP. Fogler Brar will handle a wide variety of commercial work, including contingency work in plaintiffs’ commercial litigation.
“I’ve wanted to start up my own firm again, and this is the optimum time. My new partners are superb lawyers who impressed me as we worked together on some complicated and challenging cases,” says Mr. Fogler, a Chambers USA-ranked attorney who was named the 2014 Lawyer of the Year in Bet-the-Company Litigation by The Best Lawyers in America. He represents clients in energy, legal malpractice, antitrust, breach of contract, construction, probate and insurance disputes.
Mr. Fogler has been trying cases since beginning his career with Fulbright & Jaworksi in 1978. He later formed McDade Fogler LLP with noted Houston attorney Tom McDade and practiced there for 15 years before joining Beck Redden in 2007.
“It was wonderful working with Murray these last years. I certainly understand wanting to start and mold your own firm,” says David Beck, a founding partner at Beck Redden. “I hope we get to work together again on some intriguing case in the near future.”
Mr. Brar’s courtroom track record includes positive results for clients in the oil and gas, legal, technology and financial industries, among others. His experience as lead trial counsel includes a breach of contract win for an auto franchise and a take-nothing summary judgment for an airline in a separate breach of contract claim.
A former federal law clerk, Ms. O’Neil represents clients in such diverse areas as commercial contract law and legal malpractice defense. Also a former federal clerk, Ms. Gray has served as lead briefing attorney in an array of cases involving international Ponzi schemes; employment disputes; trademark, trade secret and copyright infringement; and other complex commercial matters.
