Shareholder at Katz Herdman MacGillivray & Fullerton PC.  Board Certified Specialist in Water Law.

My belief is that to help a person in a legal crisis, I must know you as a person – not just another case. That means you should know more about me than where I went to school.. I am a father. I have three wonderfully full-of-life children. I am also an athlete. I love to get away from everything with a hard run in the early morning hours or a solitary bike ride.. As a lawyer, I have always wanted to try difficult cases to juries. To be respected by the other side, they must know that we are willing to fight all the way to the end and get results in Court. Our track record at trial speaks to who we are and how far we are willing to go to make things right.

I am a husband of 29 years to my wife Tanya and together we raised three great young adults.. In 1994, after seven years in practice, I attended the first ever Gerry Spence Trial Lawyers College. It changed my world and opened me up to really see the pain inflicted on working families by the Wall Street elites. It caused me to dedicate and focus my professional career upon "representing the forgotten," ordinary working families. It has been my passion, and honor, to have represented so many good, honest and decent families who have been vicitmized by systematic fraudulent, deceptive or abusive business practices of lenders, debt collectors, credit reporting agencies.. In my three decades as a lawyer, I am most grateful to have been given the opportunity to truly listen to my clients and then work to expose systemic wrongdoing and bring awareness and hopefully change. I am also grateful to have been given the opportunity to have worked on many cases drawing national attention about harmful business practices.  I am also very proud to have presented testimony to state legistlative bodies and to brief state agencies about predatory harmful loan flipping practices. This has resulted in bad publicity to predatory lenders helped cause them to be denied their legislative agendas.  I am also grateful for the many close friendships I have  developed with other attorneys across the country with whom I have shared reprentation of their clients in trial by jury.

Born and raised in Longview, TX, Trey Sloan grew up spending countless afternoons after school at the Sloan Firm. Between tagging along with his dad to meet clients, observing trials and depositions, and wondering why all the thick and complicated books in the library were even necessary, he developed a deep sense of the importance and meaning of the work the Firm did. He witnessed first-hand how, through careful attention, compassion, and tireless diligence, the Firm guided clients through the most hopeless moments of their lives to provide them with a sense of peace and closure by advocating for their rights.. After finishing high school in Houston, Trey attended Southern Methodist University in Dallas, focusing on Markets & Culture, Sociology, and Spanish before graduating in 2007. For the next ten years, he pursued his love of all things with an engine, selling and then managing a motorcycle dealership in Longview before acknowledging that while he enjoyed sharing this love of going fast with his dedicated customers, his greatest fulfillment came in counseling others in times of need just as he had experienced at the Sloan Firm.. With that goal in mind, he enrolled and began law school at South Texas College of Law Houston. Although being back in school in his mid-30’s, navigating the uncertainties of the pandemic, and learning to think like a lawyer proved to be as difficult as he anticipated, he excelled in his studies. Trey even served in a leadership role in the school’s ACLU chapter while participating in moot court and mock trial programs. Upon graduating in May 2022, it was his honor to accept an associate position with the Sloan Firm. Trey felt he had finally come full circle back to the hallways and offices in which he grew up, this time, with a greater purpose.. Now, Trey practices out of the firm’s office in Santa Fe and has successfully represented clients in personal injury and wrongful death cases throughout New Mexico. His primary practice areas include trucking collisions, auto collisions, premises defects, and medical/professional negligence. Trey brings the same passion and zealous advocacy for his client’s rights that left such an impression on him years ago. He endeavors to continue the legacy of unparalleled legal representation the Sloan Firm offers and has offered throughout the years.. When not at the office, Trey is an avid cyclist, photographer, and traveler, but values most the time spent with his wife, Kaley, and their pets.
