About Richard G.
Richard G. Grant practices law in Texas and before the Fifth and Ninth Circuits. He appears regularly in filings and oral arguments in federal appellate courts and in state courts in Texas. That admission pattern shapes the contours of his work.
Grant's path into appellate practice developed over years of courtroom work and appeals. He has litigated matters that required briefing, record development and argument at the appellate level. Across those matters he has navigated procedural rules and precedent in both regional circuits and the Texas courts that feed them. His experience in federal appeals complements his familiarity with state-court procedures.
In the federal context, Grant has prepared appellate briefs and handled the procedural mechanics that accompany appeals — mandamus petitions, stays, and responses to dispositive motions. In state practice he has managed trial records and post-trial work that form the backbone of appellate review. Those responsibilities demand close attention to the record and to preserving issues for appeal.
Colleagues describe him as deliberate in written advocacy and pragmatic at oral argument. He tends to emphasize clarity in briefing. He aims to present the case in a way the court can follow easily. Litigation teams working with him have noted his focus on preserving appellate issues at the trial level and on constructing succinct appellate briefs.
Richard G. Grant operates from a solo or small-firm platform. His office is Richard G. Grant, P.C., where he manages case intake, drafting and court appearances. That structure gives him control over case strategy and client communication. It also means he frequently coordinates with local counsel and experts when matters require specialized knowledge outside his appellate practice.
As an attorney admitted in Texas and to the Fifth and Ninth Circuit Courts of Appeals, Grant's practice centers on appellate work and federal litigation. He continues to represent clients in appeals and in those trial-level matters that are most likely to produce appellate issues. He is currently practicing at Richard G. Grant, P.C., where he handles appellate and federal litigation matters.
