David & Stephens LLP Information

David & Stephens is a Houston-based law firm serving as outside counsel to cities, counties, special districts, and other government entities across Texas. We believe legal solutions start and end in the communities they serve, not in the legislation written about them. That belief shapes how we practice across our three areas: policy advice, land acquisition, and constitutional litigation. We treat them as equal parts of one mission, since government clients rarely face just one of these problems at a time. Our attorneys have served as government lawyers, elected officials, and AmLaw 100 partners. That experience shapes how we advise: practical guidance grounded in the political and institutional realities our clients navigate every day. We're outside counsel that strengthens your team's capacity, not counsel that operates around it.
