Andrew Guthrie

Partner

Haynes and Boone, LLP


As a pastor’s son and former aspiring sportscaster, Andrew Guthrie knows the value of grabbing—and keeping—an audience’s attention. Andrew’s clients appreciate that he brings this skill to their cases, whether in briefs to the appellate court or arguments to the jury. But Andrew also knows that once that attention is earned, substance is paramount. So he works with clients to identify and communicate their most important arguments in a clear, thorough, and ultimately effective way.

Andrew focuses his practice on appeals and critical trial court briefing across an array of subject matters, including business disputes, government investigations, energy, bankruptcy, products liability, intellectual property and the False Claims Act.

Through in-depth analysis of a case’s most important legal and factual questions and his natural ability to clearly communicate those points to a judge or a jury, Andrew consistently provides effective representation to his clients no matter the case or the stage. He was named “Appellate Lawyer of the Week” in February 2016 by Texas Lawyer after successfully arguing a First Amendment case to the Fifth Circuit despite being retained mere weeks before oral argument. Andrew has also been recognized as a “Rising Star” by Texas Super Lawyers (2016-2021); appointed to the State Bar’s Professional Ethics Committee by the Texas Supreme Court; and awarded the 2020 Rosner & Rosner Young Lawyer Professionalism Award from the ABA’s Center for Professional Responsibility.
