Managing Attorney

After working for law firms and companies, Hunter realized that he serves clients and communities best through his own approach and, therefore, founded the Thomas Law Firm. Hunter is a licensed attorney in the great state of Texas and in the U.S. District Court, Western District of Texas.
Hunter earned his law degree and MBA from Oklahoma City University. In law school, Hunter was active in the Energy Law Association, Economic Development Law Group, and the Make a Will and Family Financial Planning Program. Before law school, Hunter attended the University of Texas at Austin, where he earned a bachelor of arts degree in government and a certificate in business foundations from the McCombs School of Business. Hunter was an active member of Delta Tau Delta at UT.
In his spare time, Hunter enjoys hunting and fishing at his family ranch in the Hill Country, spending quality time with his large family and numerous friends, playing tennis and attending Texas Longhorn athletic events. Hunter is also an active member and volunteer with Ducks Unlimited – Austin Chapter.
Hunter believes that legal services do not belong only to those who can afford it and ensures that he creates time for pro bono work.
