Hanna & Plaut is pleased and proud to report that our own Lauren Burgess has been named a Director-at-Large for the Texas Association of Defense Counsel.

TADC is a professional organization of civil trial attorneys dedicated to promoting excellence in its members, fairness in our judicial system, and preserving the right to jury trial for all citizens. In order to become a member of the Texas Association of Defense Counsel, an attorney must be in good standing with the State Bar of Texas, devote a substantial amount of their professional time to the handling of litigated cases and whose representation in such cases is primarily other than plaintiffs in personal injury cases, and not be a member of any plaintiff or claimant oriented association, group or firm. In addition to a strong educational program, the TADC legislative program is an effective voice for presenting defense views to the legislature. We expect that Lauren’s new role in governance of this organization will pay dividends for Hanna & Plaut and its clients.
