Dallas-Based Strategic Communications
Dallas-Fort Worth consistently ranks among the fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the country and has become one of the most important business markets in the United States. Even as DFW grows, Dallas remains, in many ways, an old-guard city: relationships are built over decades, trust is earned face-to-face, and a deep Texas network is critically important. August pairs its national capabilities with senior counsel based locally, bringing years of experience serving clients across the private equity, commercial and residential real estate, healthcare, oil and gas, and renewable energy sectors. The firm also represents high-profile individuals based in Texas.
August regularly works alongside legal counsel in high-stakes litigation, internal and government investigations, regulatory and enforcement matters, and both civil and criminal white collar representations. The firm’s experience includes matters involving the DoJ, SEC, FDA, and other federal agencies; state attorneys general; Congressional investigations; complex commercial disputes; class actions and multidistrict litigation; and other matters attracting significant media and stakeholder scrutiny.
