At Hicks Johnson, our greatest asset is our people. The results they consistently achieve for our clients is proof. The varied perspectives and life experiences our professionals bring to the table—which reflect the breadth of our global clientele—allow us to “think outside the box” and develop creative solutions to pressing legal challenges. We also live out our values every day in the office. Our lawyers and staff enjoy a collegial, respectful work environment, where all voices are heard and all contributions valued equally.

We are committed to creating a firm culture that inspires everyone to produce their best work. We’re proud that 40 percent of our senior lawyers are women, far exceeding the Houston and nationwide averages. To formalize our support of gender equity within the legal profession, we have signed the Houston Bar Association’s Gender Fairness Commitment Statement, which asks law firms to implement concrete policies and practices that interrupt bias and promote gender diversity at all levels. Our team also includes members of the LGBTQ+ community and people from a broad range of underrepresented backgrounds.

As part of our commitment to fostering diversity in the legal profession, we offer a three-week Diversity Fellowship Program for 1L students who have demonstrated a strong commitment to advancing diversity within the industry. Fellows receive a stipend along with complimentary lodging in Houston for the duration of the program.
