On January 31, 2020 Balch & Bingham announced the opening of its first Texas office in Houston. Compass Law Group was glad to partner with Balch to facilitate this successful launch of a new office.

Balch's growth to Texas is for good reason. According to Balch & Bingham's announcement, the firm has "nearly 75 clients across Texas in the energy, banking and financial services, manufacturing, and healthcare industries."

"Our growth has always been driven by the needs of our clients. With their support and the increasing demand for our services in Houston and throughout Texas, we are providing additional infrastructure and support to our lawyers and practices that currently exist in the market," said Stan Blanton, managing partner, in the firm's announcement online. "Our clients will benefit tremendously from the addition of new office and team. We look forward to becoming active members of Houston's business and civic communities with the expansion of our footprint."

Hayden Flowers of Compass Law was instrumental in putting this office opening together. "Working with Balch & Bingham is always a pleasure," Flowers said. "For any firm to open in a new market, they need to have a compelling story. Balch has one of the best — they have over 70 clients here, and need boots on the ground to serve them and to expand their already strong platform."
