Biography
Garrett Brawley, business attorney serving Houston
Garrett Brawley is an attorney based in Houston, TEXAS. The practice focuses on Business, Litigation, and Trusts. Garrett works from Houston, Texas and takes on business matters across the region.
Garrett Brawley is a top attorney recognized by Best Lawyers in the practice area(s) of Commercial Litigation, Litigation - Antitrust and Litigation - Trusts and Estates.
Garrett, who practices law in Houston, Texas, has been recognized since 2023. This recognition is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey, reflecting the high esteem in which Garrett is held by other top lawyers in the same geographic and legal practice area.
Garrett is an experienced trial lawyer with significant wins for both plaintiffs and defendants in high-stakes commercial cases across the country, including a $438 million judgment obtained after a federal antitrust trial with Alistair Dawson and Alex Roberts.
Garrett’s first chair trial experience allows him to play a central role in all his cases. Having tried cases with over $100 million in dispute, Garrett has a practiced understanding of how to prepare complex matters with the end in mind, building a clear narrative that will resonate with diverse audiences. By design, Garrett maintains a well-rounded litigation practice. He has represented large corporations in antitrust, securities, non-compete, and other complex commercial disputes. He is repeatedly called on to represent oil and gas companies in a variety of litigation matters, including breach of contract, force majeure, and royalty issues. Garrett also has notable experience representing high net worth individuals in will contest and estate disputes. After his first jury trial alongside David J. Beck in a securities fraud action in Texas state court, class counsel in the related class action relayed to Mr. Beck that Garrett was a “force of nature at trial,” specifically noting “[t]he impeachment of one fact witness after another” and “the simple narrative, forcing defendants to deal with the ‘mind numbing’ details.” Garrett has since played a central role in numerous other trials, and has delivered opening statement, voir dire, and closing argument as lead counsel. His recent achievements as lead counsel also include a fifteen-minute jury verdict completely in his client’s favor in a Harris County real property dispute. Garrett’s background equips him to approach his trial work with a competitive edge, good judgment, and a rational perspective that resonates with judges and juries alike. A first-generation college student from a small town in southeast Texas, he understands the importance of hard work, sacrifice, and perseverance. He prioritizes his clients’ needs with the same determined care. Equal to his courtroom acumen is his understanding that sometimes the best result is to broker a business solution that will avoid litigation altogether. Garrett brings this approach to all his clients, from large company general counsel to small business owners.Garrett's approach to business cases
