Boutique trial firm Miller Fair Henry celebrates the firm’s Tier 1 rankings in the 2025 edition of Best Law Firms, a distinguished legal guide published by The Best Lawyers in America.

The firm achieved top-tier recognition for outstanding intellectual property and patent litigation practices in East Texas. This achievement builds on the firm’s strong legacy as part of Ward, Smith & Hill, which recently transitioned to Miller Fair Henry following the conclusion of the name partners' trial practice.

“It is an honor to build on the legacy of our predecessors,” said name partner Andrea Fair. “These honors really speak to the efforts and advocacy of our entire team, which remains dedicated to delivering exceptional legal service to our clients.”

Miller Fair Henry attorneys are renowned for their work in high-stakes claims involving patent and intellectual property law, commercial litigation, business and contractual issues and other matters.

The team’s $166 million jury result in a patent infringement case against AT&T recently was ranked among nation’s largest for the year by TopVerdict.com. Ms. Fair was also named a finalist for Intellectual Property Attorney of the Year as part of the Texas Legal Awards, celebrating trailblazing attorneys who American Lawyer Media describes as having left an “indelible mark on the legal landscape of Texas.”

The Best Law Firms award process relies on client feedback and peer review paired with journalistic research to determine honorees. The annual listing is described as “the most credible rankings of exceptional law firms from around the world.”

Selection is based on a thorough analysis of submitted information, interviews with industry leaders and feedback from clients and other attorneys. To be eligible, a firm must have at least one attorney recognized by The Best Lawyers in America guide, which honored Ms. Fair, Chad Everingham and Of Counsel Judge T. John Ward in the latest edition.
