Roquemore Skierski PLLC has extensive experience serving as local counsel in Texas for national coordinating counsel and general counsel based outside the state. The firm provides local insight and responsive litigation support designed to keep matters moving in Dallas-area state courts and in Texas federal courts.
Texas courts impose real requirements on local counsel when out-of-state attorneys appear by pro hac vice admission or other authorized appearance. Those requirements can vary by venue and by the relevant court’s local rules and court-specific practice orders, particularly in federal court.
Roquemore Skierski PLLC approaches local counsel work as a dedicated partner, not a local filing service that functions as a formality, which rarely serves our clients’ or co-counsel’s best interests and often runs afoul of local rules and the expectations of our judges.
Roquemore Skierski PLLC maintains an active litigation practice in Dallas and treats local counsel coverage as an extension of that litigation function. The firm tailors the scope of work to the needs of the case and the obligations imposed by the venue, then executes with the staffing typical of a trial-focused team. That structure supports practical objectives that matter to coordinating counsel, including reliable hearing coverage, consistent compliance with procedural requirements, and follow-up on court directives.
The firm regularly assists co-counsel with legal research, drafting, and editing intended to bring motions and briefs into compliance with applicable rules and local practices. We provide local legal research and leverage our experience to provide input and assist with strategic decisions. We can also give valuable suggestions on the tone and presentation of legal submissions – from substantive arguments to formatting idiosyncrasies – to best suit the preferences of the presiding judge.
Roquemore Skierski PLLC’s litigators try cases and handle contested hearings, evidentiary disputes, and motion practice. That courtroom experience supports out-of-state teams when matters require in-person appearances, efficient logistics, and confident. The firm’s role often includes coordinating hearing materials, managing local scheduling mechanics, and ensuring hearing readiness aligns with the court’s practical requirements.
The attorneys at Roquemore Skierski PLLC have practiced law in Texas for decades and have developed a reputation for strong work product, trial skills, and professionalism. The firm’s regular participation in Dallas courts, along with professional involvement in bar associations reinforces long-standing relationships with opposing counsel, court staff, and local judges.
