Equal Justice Under Law
Proudly Serving
The People Of Austin, Texas
“Equal Justice Under Law” is etched boldly on the facade of the Supreme Court of the United States. But in practice, too often, the system favors big employers and insurance companies who can throw money at their legal problems and try to intimidate, flood the process, and bully you out of your rights.
We proudly serve Austin, Texas, and the surrounding areas. Contact our law firm online or call us at (512) 881-1529 to schedule a consultation.
In our nearly two decades as Austin employment lawyers, and especially in our six-year journey through Washington, D.C., we saw firsthand how money can too often skew the legal process and favor the powerful.
Holt Major Lackey, PLLC, was founded to fight back against this type of legal bullying. The law is not a commodity, it is a set of rights that belong to every person equally. You need an experienced attorney who understands how to level the playing field and make sure your voice is not drowned out.
