Andrew Thomas: Bringing Commercial Litigation Expertise to Immigration Defense

Andrew T. Thomas, a seasoned commercial litigator, brings his high-stakes trial experience to defending immigrants across the U.S., with a focus on family unity and deportation defense.

A Unique Legal Path from Corporate Litigation to Immigration Defense

Andrew T. Thomas, a highly regarded attorney in both corporate litigation and immigration law, stands out among immigration attorneys for his unique career trajectory. After years of representing Fortune 500 companies in complex, high-stakes commercial litigation, Thomas pivoted to immigration law—a field where the stakes are just as high, but with deeply personal implications for his clients.

Thomas’ legal journey began in the realm of commercial litigation, where he gained extensive trial experience and represented a wide range of corporate clients. One of his early landmark cases involved him working with a team of attorneys on a multi-billion dollar class-action lawsuit against a major oil and gas company, which resulted in the recovery of $1.08 billion for direct-serve gasoline dealers who had been overcharged. Thomas' role in this case showcased his ability to handle intricate legal issues in a high-pressure litigation setting.

But in a move that sets him apart from other immigration attorneys, Thomas took this expertise from the commercial world and applied it to a more humanitarian cause—immigration law. Since founding his own law firm over a decade ago, Thomas has committed his practice to helping individuals and families navigate the complex and often intimidating U.S. immigration system. His firm has since grown to include several offices, attorneys, and represents clients across the United States. 

Bringing Big Law Skills to Immigration Court

What makes Andrew T. Thomas’ practice unique is his approach to immigration defense with the mindset and skillset of a seasoned trial lawyer. In immigration court, the legal battles are frequently fought against the U.S. government, with attorneys from the Department of Homeland Security and judges appointed by the Department of Justice. This high-stakes environment mirrors the intense litigation scenes Thomas faced in his corporate law days.

"Consequences in Immigration Court are more profound than commercial litigation," says Thomas. "Instead of defending corporate interests, I’m fighting for the futures of families—ensuring they stay together and that individuals aren’t sent back to countries where they may face harm."

Most immigration attorneys enter the field without significant courtroom experience, particularly in high-profile, complex cases. Thomas, however, approaches each immigration case with the same strategic precision and tenacity that defined his corporate litigation career. His ability to cross-examine witnesses, prepare compelling arguments, and navigate complex legal procedures gives his clients a distinct advantage in a field where representation can often be the difference between staying in the U.S. or facing deportation.

A Legacy of Media Recognition and Client Success

Thomas' reputation as a top immigration attorney has earned him numerous accolades and media recognition. He has been featured on prominent media platforms including Univision, Telemundo, Buenos Dias Familia, and Estrella TV, discussing critical immigration issues. His legal prowess and community dedication have led to honors such as being named one of the "Leaders in Law" by D Magazine and a "Top Lawyer" by Houstonia Magazine. He was also included in The New York Times annual list of "Power Lawyers" in the United States.

These recognitions reflect the breadth of his expertise and his commitment to making a difference in the lives of his clients. 

A National Reach with a Personal Touch

Based in Texas but serving clients across the country, Andrew T. Thomas has built a truly national practice. Immigration law is federal, meaning that an attorney licensed in one state can practice anywhere in the U.S. This has allowed Thomas to represent clients from all corners of the country, ensuring that his legal expertise reaches those who need it most.

"Immigration law isn’t confined to one jurisdiction," explains Thomas. "Because it is federal law, I’m able to help clients from coast to coast, ensuring that they have the best possible legal defense, no matter where they are located."

Thomas’ commitment to providing top-tier legal representation is evident in the number of families and individuals he has helped secure work authorizations, visas, and legal residency. His firm handles a wide variety of immigration cases, from defending against deportation in immigration court to guiding clients through the intricate processes involved in obtaining legal status through family-based petitions, asylum applications, and labor certifications.

A Firm Built on Integrity, Experience, and Results

Andrew T. Thomas has transformed his early career successes in commercial litigation into a thriving immigration defense practice. His firm operates with the same level of professionalism and dedication that marked his work in corporate litigation, but with an added focus on the human impact of each case. This unique combination of skills and experience has earned Thomas a national reputation as a leading advocate in immigration law.

In an era where immigration law is constantly evolving, and the stakes for clients are high, Thomas remains committed to standing up for his clients in court, providing them with the best possible defense. His ability to navigate the legal complexities of both immigration and corporate litigation makes him a formidable opponent in court and a trusted advocate for his clients.
