Chairman's Letter
Hello friends,
Business leaders know that growth headlines only matter if they translate into real opportunity, sound planning, and better decision-making.
That is one reason recent Texas economic indicators are worth watching. According to the Census Bureau, Texas continues to add new residents, more than any other state. Additionally, Preliminary Bureau of Economic Analysis estimates show Texas generated roughly $2.9 trillion in economic output in 2025. Given a total population of 31,709,821, that’s about $91,500 in economic output per resident.
Additionally, Houston job growth in May saw the strongest gains since COVID-19. For context, April netted nearly a third of that. Important to note, the industries within the city showing significant momentum were construction, followed by healthcare, according to Greater Houston Partnership data reported in the Houston Business Journal.
These stats matter because sustained expansion creates momentum, but it also raises the stakes. For business owners, leaders, and general counsel, a robust economy often brings more competition for talent, pressure on operations, complex contracts, real estate activity, and more strategic decisions around succession, financing, disputes, and risk. In our experience, periods like this reward companies that are prepared, disciplined, and willing to act with clarity.
Speaking of successful companies, we are proud to see our clients recognized for the ventures they are building. Gordy Oil Co and Satterfield & Pontikes were recently named Houston’s Best Family-Owned Businesses by the Houston Business Journal. That recognition says something meaningful about the staying power of family-owned enterprises in this market. Companies built on long-term commitment, sound leadership, and strong values continue to make a measurable impact.
Another point of pride for our firm is the recognition of LABB, Legal Assistance for Black-owned Businesses, with a PRSA Excalibur Silver Award in the Diversity and Inclusion/ Multicultural Public Relations Campaign Category. Through LABB, we provide strategic pro bono legal services and guidance to help Black-owned organizations address challenges, pursue growth, and build resilient foundations. Congratulations to our LABB team.
We are excited to welcome Mike Rose to BoyarMiller. Mike, who is Board Certified in Labor and Employment Law, joins the firm as a Litigation Shareholder.
Congratulations are in order for Claire Fernandez Bahney. Claire has been elected Shareholder in the firm’s Real Estate Group.
We also welcome Crystal Campos to BoyarMiller. Crystal joins as a Legal Assistant in the Litigation group.
At BoyarMiller, we work alongside our clients to reduce complexity, clarify options, and help them make informed decisions in moments that matter. Whether the issue is scaling, governance, hiring, litigation risk, succession, or a major transaction, our goal remains the same: to provide practical counsel that helps businesses move forward with confidence.
Warm regards,
