Kane Russell Coleman Logan PC Expands to Austin

March 4, 2025 – AUSTIN, TEXAS – Kane Russell Coleman Logan PC (KRCL), a full-service law firm with offices in Dallas and Houston, today announced its expansion to Austin.

The establishment of a new office in Frost Bank Tower on 401 Congress Avenue is being led by founding director Joseph M. Colemen and Raymond J. Kane, founding director and Chair of the Board of Directors. Servicing the broader Central Texas region, including San Antonio, KRCL’s Austin office will initially open with six partner and associate attorneys and three business professionals, most of whom practice in the bankruptcy, litigation and workout areas, with additional partner hires imminent.

The new attorneys joining KRCL include:

• Mark Taylor, Director
• Morris Weiss, Director
• Trip Nix, Director
• Jason Binford, Director
• Casey Roy, Senior Attorney
• Abby Rogers, Associate

"Expanding to Austin is an important part of our Strategic Plan," said Coleman. "This move strengthens our ability to serve clients across every major market in Texas, solidifying our presence as a true Texas-based firm.  We are thrilled with the quality of lawyers attracted to KRCL.  As our clients grow and expand statewide, our Austin office ensures they will have comprehensive legal support in the dynamic Central Texas region.”

While the initial legal focus of the firm’s practice in Austin will be bankruptcy and litigation, KRCL will expand its expertise in Austin over time to provide a full suite of services, similar to its other Texas offices in Dallas and Houston. Additionally, the firm anticipates hiring more attorneys in the coming months to support and expand this growth.

KRCL will focus on serving key industries in Austin and the greater Central Texas markets, including technology, healthcare, real estate and manufacturing, among others. The firm also intends to continue to attract and support businesses relocating to Texas from across the country and around the world.

“This expansion into Austin marks one of the most significant strategic achievements originally set as a long-term goal by our Founders, and now executed by our next generation of leaders,” said Kane. “Bringing this vision to life has been a long-standing priority, and I’m thrilled to see it come to fruition at the perfect time—when our firm is poised to capitalize on the many business opportunities in the Austin and Central Texas markets.”

As part of its legacy planning and leadership transition, ten years in the making, KRCL now looks to its second-generation leaders to guide the future of the firm. Upon expiration of the current Board Chair’s term this year, KRCL’s transition to a fully non-founder led firm will be complete.  In addition to elevating younger attorneys into leadership roles at the 33-year-old firm, KRCL has significantly strengthened its executive team with the hiring of Erik Cordova as CFO and Jonathan Carley as CHRO in 2024, and the addition of Chad Collins as COO in 2023. These strategic hires fulfill KRCL’s “professionally managed” form of governance, giving the firm an even greater competitive edge in the Texas legal market.

The Austin office, spanning over 8000 square feet with planned expansions, is under construction and set to open by the end of the first quarter in 2025. KRCL will host an open house later in the year to celebrate this achievement with clients and friends of the firm. Operations for the KRCL Austin office officially started yesterday out of temporary office space at Frost Bank Tower.
