On November 13, legal professionals came together for an engaging program revisiting the landmark case Pennzoil Co. v. Texaco, Inc. Presented by the HBA, Baker Botts L.L.P., Norton Rose Fulbright, and Yetter Coleman LLP, speakers—which included original participants of the ligation—reflected on the historic jury verdict four decades later. 

The discussion shed light on first-hand context, broke down trial and appellate strategies, and observed the case’s lasting impact on business practices, courtroom advocacy, and legal precedent. Attendees enjoyed time to connect and continue the conversation during a post-event reception.
