Tricia Suzanne Propst
Law Office of Tricia Propst
I'm from a small town in the piney woods of Southeast Texas where my Mamaw always told me "Tricia, we are just country folk." She was an elegant woman whose lessons gave me solid roots.
When I grew up, I graduated from Texas A&M University where the Lieutenant Governor of Texas told us that as Texans and as Aggies people around the world know and trust us. I earned my Doctorate of Jurisprudence from South Texas College of Law in Houston, Texas. Created to educate returning veterans under the GI Bill, my law school started in Houston's downtown YMCA building. STCL is still turning out the best law practitioners in the state, and I am proud to be an alumni.
Each of my 30 years since taking an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of our state and of the United States, I've worked protecting and defending small business, real estate, and estates.
In my first 15 years, I represented small businesses from mom and pops to a subsidiary of one of the biggest, Home Depot, all in the construction and real estate supply industries. In more recent years I have worked with small business in rebuilding after disaster.
My clients and colleagues find that I am a compassionate and empathetic listener. I have two super powers: The first is my ability to get on the same page with goals and issues in order to execute a plan of action. The second is understanding how business must balance the lawyer's advice and the bottom line.
As a lawyer, I can help identify worst case scenarios so client businesses will be able to take calculable risks rather than leaps of faith. As an experienced lawyer, I can advise on changes that will improve the worst case scenario.
Finally, as a community lawyer, I stay available to assist local business and to give my time to families who need help with wills & trusts, probate, and guardianship.
I'm just country folk and I wouldn't change it for the world.

Free Consultation
Free consultation means I will listen to your issue and goal and advise on the type of legal service you need and my best guess at the time involved and the hourly rate. If I believe you aren't ready to use an attorney, and explaining that I do not represent you, I will give you suggestions as to the next steps you should take and at what point I believe you WILL need an attorney. If I believe you need a different type of attorney or an attorney with different type of experience in the areas I practice, I will do my best to help you find one. If you need an attorney and are comfortable with using me, I will ask you to make an appointment to discuss engaging me to represent you. -
Rates, Retainers and Additional Information
I do not work on contingent fees. I do make suitable arrangements as I believe that is necessary. My standard practice is to request a retainer.
