New additions bolster firm's robust trial and appellate practice
HOUSTON, Oct. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Wright Close & Barger LLP is pleased to announce the addition of three experienced attorneys and one recent law school graduate as new associates to the firm's already deep bench of highly skilled trial and appellate lawyers.

Mr. Williams is an experienced litigator who focuses his practice on civil litigation and appeals. In his previous role at the Department of Justice's Executive Office for Immigration Review, he advised judges on statutory and regulatory issues and assisted in drafting orders and decisions. He graduated from the University of Illinois College of Law.
Mr. Douthit specializes in insurance coverage litigation in state and federal court. He advises insurers on coverage issues arising under property, commercial, environmental, and automobile policies. He is a graduate of South Texas College of Law Houston.
