John P. Henry
Trial and motion practice in Texas, principal office in Round Rock. Nineteen years and nine months, and a book that has run to 1,400 matters at one time, most of them commercial. I am engaged as co-counsel by other lawyers, and as lead where a file needs to be taken over. Texas Bar No. 24055655.
What the practice is
One thing, done narrowly: finding the procedural mechanism that ends a civil case or makes a judgment collectible, and proving it up on the record. Not a practice-area menu. The catalog is the honest description of the work — 64 mechanisms, each with the matter it came from and, where it exists, the signed order.
Who engages me
- Family, probate and transactional lawyers whose file turned into litigation.
- Litigators with a setting they cannot cover, or a file with no visible exit.
- Anyone holding a judgment that has not been collected.
Credentials
- Licensed in Texas — Bar No. 24055655.
- SMU, summa cum laude.
- Not certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.

Before this
Fifteen years of matters resolved by settlement, at trial and in arbitration precede the catalog — commercial, construction, real property, probate and partnership disputes. Those are listed as prior results, kept separate from the matters above because they are stated as amounts resolved rather than proved by an order on this site.
Where I appear
Anywhere in Texas. The base is Round Rock and the volume is in Williamson, Travis and the surrounding Central Texas counties, but the work travels — sixty-six matters in the Bexar County courts in San Antonio, the 267th District Court in DeWitt County, the 56th in Galveston County, and many more. Motion practice does not require a local office; it requires knowing the local rule and being in the room on the day.
