Wes Black’s practice combines the determination of a high-stakes trial lawyer with the exacting focus of a veteran appellate attorney.

Board Certified in Civil Appellate Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, Wes represents clients involved in catastrophic injury cases and high-stakes business disputes.

He has briefed and argued cases before both state and federal appellate courts, including numerous Texas Courts of Appeals, the Texas Supreme Court, and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. He has also represented clients in state and federal jury trials.
