Presenter: Drew Robertson, Kane Russell Coleman PC
With a reputation for determination and an impeccable eye for detail, Andrew
“Drew” Robertson lends his ample legal knowledge and abilities to KRCL’s
litigation team. He handles complex commercial matters for clients in a variety of
industries, including financial services, commercial real estate, and healthcare.
Drew’s practice focuses on Texas but also encompasses cases in other
jurisdictions, including federal courts across the country.
Drew delves deeply into the nuances of complex litigation issues to get to the
heart of what the client really cares about. He finds it gratifying to untangle the
legal threads, distill the issues into a straightforward and understandable theory
of the client’s case, and then craft the best strategy for persuading the court that
the facts and applicable law support that theory.
Prior to joining KRCL, Drew clerked for three years for Senior U.S. District Judge
Sam R. Cummings in the Northern District of Texas, where his responsibilities
included helping manage the Court’s extensive civil docket, researching legal
issues in cases before the Court, and drafting and editing hundreds of opinions
and orders. This experience gave him an in-depth understanding of federal rules
and procedure, and the firm’s attorneys routinely draw on Drew’s extensive
knowledge of that subject to help clients navigate the advantages and potential
pitfalls of litigating in federal court.
Drew previously spent time interning for Senator John Cornyn in the U.S. Senate
and in the Tarrant County Criminal District Attorney’s Office. While earning his
cum laude law degree from Texas Tech, Drew was heavily involved in the
school’s nationally-ranked moot court program. As a law student, he won a
national championship in moot court, earned multiple brief-writing awards, and
was inducted to the National Order of Scribes for achievement in legal writing.
