HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hicks Thomas LLP has been named to the 2025 edition of Best Law Firms by The Best Lawyers in America, one of the oldest and most respected legal guides in the industry.

The firm received the highest ranking possible – Tier 1 – both nationally and in the Houston metro area for oil and gas law. It also received top-tier rankings for its commercial litigation, energy law and insurance law practices in Houston.

Best Law Firms also recognized the firm for its work in construction litigation, labor and employment litigation, appellate, arbitration, management labor law, intellectual property, environmental law and insurance litigation.

To be eligible, a firm must have at least one attorney recognized by The Best Lawyers in America.
