Areas of Practice

Bryan H. Burg, as Managing Partner, provides general management for the firm. He was born in Dallas and is happy to be married to Laura and resides in North Texas. Together, Mr. Burg and his wife have a son, two daughters, and five grandsons. Professionally, Mr. Burg enjoys meeting people with unique problems, developing a thorough understanding of their circumstances, and formulating a plan to resolve their issues through litigation or other means. He has found enjoyment and friendships working with the State Bar of Texas for 16 years in professional grievance cases. In addition, Mr. Burg has held positions on non-profit boards and as an officer.

Apart from the practice of law, Mr. Burg’s interests include outdoor sports and history. He edited a military history book published by the Naval Institute Press in 2003 and a chapter of a book published by the University of Kansas Press in 2009.

A particular source of his enjoyment is in-depth research of lesser-known but significant military leaders, their less obvious motivations, and the profound impact that strategically placed men of faith and ability have had on history.

Mr. Burg is pleased to work with his partners to preserve Clyde Siebman’s legacy and commitment to the rule of law and the Eastern District of Texas.
