Texas Administrative Hearings and Appeals Litigation

Contact an experienced Austin administrative law attorney in Austin, Texas at Lorenzana Law Firm, P.C. for comprehensive and dependable client service before any Texas agency, board, or commission. Our thorough understanding of the Texas Administrative Practices Act, together with our experience with the different jurisdictional factors and standards of review that apply to different state agencies, can help you achieve favorable results in a wide range of litigation matters.

Our lawyers handle regulatory and licensing matters involving such industries, professions, and functions as the following:

  • Real estate, construction, and engineering
  • Restaurants, night clubs, and taverns
  • Land use and zoning
  • Licensed trades, including plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, or commercial drivers
  • Nursing homes
  • Licensed professionals, such as architects, insurance agents, mortgage brokers, surveyors, pharmacists, or teachers
  • Matters before the Public Utilities Commission, Texas Department of Health, Texas Agriculture Commission, or the Railroad Commission of Texas
  • Workers' compensation insurance, coverage, and rating issues
  • Hearings on state franchise tax, sales and use tax, or alcoholic beverage tax matters
  • Disputes concerning the Freedom of Information Act or state open records laws

Except for tax matters heard around the state by the Tax Hearings Division of the Comptroller of Public Accounts, administrative hearings before Texas regulatory and licensing agencies are generally heard in Austin before administrative law judges in the State Office of Administrative Hearings. Our law firm's location in the heart of the Texas Capitol Complex allows us to represent your interests effectively in administrative litigation before virtually any state agency with rulemaking, licensing, regulatory, disciplinary, or enforcement authority. Our proximity to the state agencies, hearing officers, and administrative law judges before whom we practice helps us respond quickly and efficiently to your needs as they develop during the case, and helps us take the initiative in driving your case to a favorable resolution.

Our attorneys can also represent you in appeals of administrative decisions in district court, whether you need an adverse agency decision revisited, or you need to defend a ruling in your favor from the agency's appeal. Our experience with both civil and administrative litigation, and the relationship between each under different sets of procedural rules, can represent a substantial advantage both in presenting your case at a hearing and in negotiating a favorable resolution with your agency opponent.

Contact an attorney at Lorenzana Law Firm, P.C. in Austin for more information about our administrative hearing experience as it applies to your specific situation.
