About Alex
Alex Pine studied political science at Concordia University–Texas, then earned his J.D. from St. Mary’s University School of Law in 2018. His undergraduate training in politics shaped how he reads statutes and administrative rules. The law degree added practical tools. Pine left law school with classroom experience in advocacy and legal writing that he has applied in practice.
Pine began his legal career in Texas soon after graduation. He spent his early years taking on a range of matters that exposed him to courtroom procedures, client counseling, and negotiated resolutions. Those experiences taught him how to move a matter forward and how to explain legal choices plainly to clients. Colleagues say he favors clear legal analysis over legalese.
The combination of a political science background and law training informs Pine’s work. He is attentive to how policy and law interact. That perspective often comes into play when dealing with regulatory questions or statutory interpretation. Pine approaches problems by isolating the core legal question and then mapping the steps that will resolve it.
Pine joined Thompson Salinas Londergan LLP as his practice developed. At the firm he has handled matters across Texas, appearing in state forums and working with clients on agreements and disputes. His role has involved trial preparation, drafting pleadings and negotiating settlements. He adapts his approach to the needs of each client, balancing procedural deadlines and practical outcomes.
Outside the courtroom, Pine has maintained an interest in the public side of legal issues. His academic background in political science continues to influence his reading of legislative changes and local policy shifts. He follows developments that affect client strategies and adjusts litigation or transactional plans when rules change.
Pine is licensed to practice in Texas and keeps current with state procedural rules and court decisions. He participates in internal firm trainings and case reviews to sharpen legal strategy and to ensure consistent client service. Peers describe him as methodical and plainspoken when presenting case options.
As of 2026, Pine practices law at Thompson Salinas Londergan LLP in Texas, where he handles a range of state-level matters and provides counsel to clients on procedural and substantive legal issues.
