August 7, 2017

HOUSTON – Texas Lawyer magazine named AZA lawyer Adam Milasincic “Litigator of the Week” for winning the dismissal of a frivolous lawsuit filed to squelch free speech and also recognized him on a list of young “Lawyers on the Rise” for his overall career accomplishments.

Mr. Milasincic’s free speech win was featured in the article “Litigator of the Week: The King of Texas’ Animal Anti-SLAPP Kingdom” (subscription required). This was the third time Mr. Milasincic prevailed for clients by using a Texas law that forbids “strategic lawsuits against public participation,” or SLAPP. It was his second such case involving a client advocating humane treatment for animals. See AZA Wins Dismissal, Fines for Frivolous Suit over Facebook Post for details of the case Mr. Milasincic was lauded for.

Texas Lawyer editors also named Mr. Milasincic and 24 other Texas attorneys as “Lawyers on the Rise” after reviewing more than 100 nominations of attorneys age 40 and under “who have established a record of accomplishments and demonstrated that they are top contributors to the practice of law and their communities.” The full list of the winners is detailed in “Texas Lawyer Announces Its Professional Excellence Honorees” (subscription required).

Mr. Milasincic is a trial lawyer who has defeated some of the largest companies in Texas on behalf of individuals, small businesses, and many of Houston’s top employers. He represents both plaintiffs and defendants in industries as far-flung as energy and hospitality, maintaining a broad practice that has included management of multimillion-dollar contract disputes, partnership break-ups, business torts, mineral lease suits, employment claims, defamation, and wrongful death, among others.

The prestigious Chambers USA: America’s Leading Lawyers for Business named him a 2017 “Associate to Watch” in the highly competitive Texas general commercial litigation category. He has been selected to the Super Lawyers’ Texas Rising Stars list for three consecutive years, earning a full profile in the 2016 Super Lawyers magazine.
