About Texas Legal Guide
An attorney search platform and legal information resource for Texans. Not a law firm. Free for users. No referral fees from attorneys.
What we are
Texas Legal Guide is an attorney search platform and legal information resource, not a law firm. We do not provide legal advice. Attorney information is sourced from public State Bar of Texas records. Discipline status reflects publicly available data; absence of public discipline does not guarantee an attorney's fitness for any particular matter.
Hemant Adhikari
Founder and Editor · Texas Legal Guide
Background. Hemant is a software builder and product operator. He started the Galaxsen network of state-vertical information sites with Arizona Attorney Search Network earlier in 2026 and is expanding the network state by state. Texas Legal Guide is the second flagship in that rollout.
Why this site exists. Existing American legal directories are largely lead-generation businesses, which biases what they show, how they rank attorneys, and what they hide. Texas Legal Guide publishes what the State Bar of Texas already makes public — every active Texas-licensed attorney's status, discipline history, location, practice areas, and TBLS board certifications — and displays it transparently, free of referral-fee incentives.
Editorial commitment. Attorney listings are refreshed quarterly against the State Bar of Texas roster, with monthly disciplinary-action monitoring and a real-time license check at the moment of intake match. Discipline status is shown on every profile, neutrally and without editorial characterization — clients deserve full information when choosing an attorney. Reach the editor at hello@texaslegal.guide.
Methodology
Attorney listings are compiled from public State Bar of Texas records. We display:
- Bar status (active, inactive, suspended)
- Discipline status (no public record / prior public discipline) — transparently, on every profile
- Practice areas the attorney lists with the bar
- Board certifications (TBLS specialties), where the attorney holds them
- Location (city, county) where the attorney maintains an office
- "Practicing remotely" tag for attorneys licensed in Texas but with an out-of-state office
Sources
- State Bar of Texas — attorney roster, bar status, disciplinary actions
- Texas Board of Legal Specialization (TBLS) — board certification data
- Texas statutes (Penal Code, Civil Practice & Remedies Code, Family Code, etc.) — cited inline in guides
Update cadence
Updated quarterly from State Bar of Texas records. Disciplinary actions monitored monthly. License verified at the moment we match you to an attorney.
Discipline transparency policy
We publish disciplinary status sourced from public State Bar of Texas records on every attorney profile. We display this transparently because clients deserve full information. Disciplinary history alone does not mean an attorney is unqualified — many attorneys with past discipline are competent practitioners — but it is information clients have a right to know when making a hiring decision.
No legal advice
This site publishes general legal information about Texas law. We do not provide legal advice for any specific situation. If you need legal advice, consult a Texas-licensed attorney.
