History

[edit]

Gray Reed & McGraw (formerly Looper Reed & McGraw) was founded in August 1985 by three Houston lawyers—including Don Looper, Jim Reed, and Jim McGraw from Reynolds, Allen & Cook. In 1990, the firm opened its Dallas office. By the end of the 1990s, the firm had expanded to more than 50 attorneys and by the end of 2012, the firm had reached 120 attorneys. On January 1, 2014, Looper Reed & McGraw parted ways with Don Looper[3][4] and changed its name to Gray Reed & McGraw. By 2020, Gray Reed had grown to a 150 lawyer firm.
