In 2010, Mr. Ford achieved the highest distinction available to an attorney practicing in the area of Estate Planning and Probate in Texas. He has become Board Certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, which is a recognition bestowed on a very few attorneys who have demonstrated special competence in this area of law and who have received recommendations from fellow attorneys and judges with whom they have worked.. In 2009, Mr. Ford completed the required course-work to become certified to serve as a mediator. In pursuit of this distinction, Mr. Ford attended the world-renowned Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution at the Pepperdine University School of Law in Malibu, California. He attended this intensive course with the goal of being able to conduct mediations in probate and guardianship cases, as very few mediators in Texas specialize in these areas.. In 2006, Mr. Ford was appointed by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Texas to serve on the Guardianship Certification Board, which is a 15-member board that creates policy and oversees the regulation of private professional guardians in the State of Texas.  At the inaugural meeting of the GCB, Mr. Ford was elected as the Chair of the Rules Committee, where he has served with distinction since that time.. Mr. Ford's recent distinctions are reflective of a dedication to the areas of estate planning, probate, and guardianship that began early in his education.  In law school, Mr. Ford was fortunate to be able to concentrate his education in estate planning and business planning, not unlike a major in undergraduate school. His concentration in estate planning and business planning involved a curriculum designed around an in-depth study of those areas.. Additionally, he was able to regularly work one-on-one with professors in those fields so that before he even graduated from law school he had experience in tax planning and will drafting.. Mr. Ford graduated from Baylor University with degrees in Accounting and Law. He has also completed several post-graduate courses at Baylor in pursuit of a Masters in Taxation.. Following law school, he began his career as a Tax Attorney for a large international accounting and consulting firm, where he assisted clients primarily in the areas of Estate and Gift Tax and Personal Income Tax.. The combination of his tax-related degrees and his experience working as a Tax Attorney have given Mr. Ford a strong background in the areas of Estate Planning and Probate, and he has focused his attention and expertise in these areas ever since.. Mr. Ford devotes his knowledge and experience to maintaining the reputation of Ford+Bergner as a leading estate planning and probate firm in Texas.

Over my career, I have worked at a well-regarded corporate law firm, for a state attorney general, and as a judicial law clerk.. I was privileged to begin my career with a one-year clerkship at the Texas Supreme Court, which is Texas's highest court for civil cases. Law clerks help the Court evaluate which of the roughly one thousand petitions filed each year should be granted and also help the Justices write their ultimate opinions.. After that, I worked as a litigator for Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, a prominent New York law firm. While at Wachtell, I worked on a variety of high-stakes commercial disputes. The cases involved complex questions of contract law, insurance coverage, business torts, securities fraud, bankruptcy, antitrust law, and federal regulatory investigations. I was a member of the trial team in IBP, Inc. v. Tyson Foods, a landmark merger case in the Delaware Court of Chancery, and I also worked on the property-insurance lawsuit filed to help rebuild the World Trade Center. Because of my background in technology, I enjoyed my cases involving internet domain names, trademark law, and copyright.. In 2003, I returned to Texas to serve in the Office of Solicitor in the Texas Office of the Attorney General, which handles the State’s most significant appellate cases and offers younger attorneys the chance to step up as lead counsel on their own docket of cases -- an opportunity rare in large firms. As an Assistant Solicitor General, I personally argued before the Texas Supreme Court, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, and several Texas state appellate courts, and I also filed written briefs in the United States Supreme Court.. In the Texas Supreme Court, my argued cases included Reata Construction Co. v. City of Dallas, an important case about sovereign immunity in contract cases; NCAA v. Yeo, a case about the due process rights afforded to student athletes; and Texas A&M University v. Koseoglu, a case about suing state officials for breach of a settlement agreement.. In the Fifth Circuit, I was lead counsel for the State of Texas in Allstate v. Abbott, in which Allstate hired former solicitor general Kenneth Starr to attack a state law that limits its expansion into the auto-repair business. I also served as lead counsel in Equal Access for El Paso v. Hawkins, a structural challenge to the Texas Medicaid system.. While at OSG, I also served as the Lead Assistant SG on the Texas redistricting cases arising out of the 2003 congressional map.  I had primary responsibility for coordinating the trial court briefing (at trial and both remand proceedings), as well as merits briefing before the United States Supreme Court in Barrientos v. Texas, No. 03-756 (which was summarily affirmed) and in LULAC v. Perry, No. 05-204 (which was affirmed on all districts but one).. At the end of 2007, I took the next step in my career by starting my own appellate practice in Austin.
