Hirsch & Westheimer, P.C

The seeds of our law firm were planted on August 13, 1913, when the Houston Daily Post announced General Maurice Hirsch planned to open a law office. In 1927, Mark Westheimer joined General Hirsch as a partner and Hirsch & Westheimer took on the name by which we are recognized today. Our founders' culture of stability, hard work, service, professionalism and loyalty has now passed to a new generation of attorneys born years after General Hirsch and Mr. Westheimer prepared their last legal agreement. If our founders returned to the firm today they would notice those same values remain at the core of our practice. They would also witness that the attorneys at Hirsch & Westheimer are long term members of the firm despite the trend of the last decade for attorneys to move from firm to firm. While our founders would hear many familiar names among the clients of the firm, they would also see that the firm now embraces clients not just from Houston but across the United States and include individuals, families, estates, major financial institutions and American and foreign business interests engaged in real estate development and management, upstream oil and gas, construction, insurance, retailing, wholesaling, manufacturing and merchandising. With the continuity of our practice, we stand today as a historical landmark in Houston’s business and legal community.

Lex Justis Chambers

Lex Justis Chambers is a law firm in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas that provides traditional legal services, Financial & Corporate Services and Wealth Management Services. The Firm was founded in the 2008 year by Mario L. McCartney who would establish his Chambers as an award winning boutique practice in commercial and corporate services in the Bahamas. The firm would soon find its way in advising local start up companies and budding entrepreneurs, some of whom have grown to successful tech companies to highly popular food and beverage products in the Bahamas. After the firm launched its website, Mr. McCartney would start a new trend by launching its own blog site, writing on a blend of legal topics while applying legal knowledge to current events taking place in The Bahamas. The blog would also feature other writers who shared the firm’s love for the law and to make a difference in formidable fashion. In the year 2011 the firm would incorporate its own corporate service company, Secured Management Services Ltd, which is a licensee of the Securities Commission of The Bahamas. The affiliate would inherit the Firm's commercial and corporate service matters as the practice would embrace a growing litigation practice where it makes regular appearances in the Magistrate's Court, Supreme Court, and Court of Appeal.
