We are not organized around billable layers or handoffs. Clients work directly with the attorney responsible for their matter, and every engagement is staffed to fit its demands, so the right judgment is always in the room rather than several levels removed.
What We Do
Four core disciplines, each approached with the same principle: understand the business behind the matter first, then deliver advice that is direct, practical and built to hold up under pressure.
Business Litigation
Contract, partnership and commercial disputes handled with a trial-ready posture from the first filing.
Corporate & Transactions
Formation, financing, acquisitions and the agreements that keep a growing company protected.
Real Estate
Acquisitions, leasing, development and title disputes for owners, investors and operators.
Employment
Practical counsel on agreements, compliance and disputes for employers and executives alike.
Founder & Principal Attorney
Clay Wortham
"Clients deserve to know exactly who is handling their matter, and to hear from that person directly."
Clay founded Wortham LLP on a simple conviction: the attorney who advises you should be the one doing the work. He brings a litigator's instinct to every engagement, anticipating where a deal or dispute could break down and building protection in before it does.
His practice spans business litigation, corporate transactions and real estate, with a focus on clear communication, measured strategy and outcomes that serve the client's broader goals.
