Experience Counts

Kilgore & Kilgore PLLC was originally founded in 1947 by John Kilgore and his son, John Kilgore Jr. They were joined by James Kilgore, brother of the senior. The firm began in Wichita Falls, Texas, where John Kilgore represented clients in the oil and gas business. After WWII, as the oil business grew, the Kilgores moved their law practice to Dallas to be near large banks that financed oil and gas transactions. After graduating from Harvard Law School, John Kilgore Jr. did substantial legal work for J. H. Whitney & Company, a New York investment firm. The work involved investments in Venezuelan oil and gas properties. Eventually, the son left Kilgore & Kilgore and became a partner at Whitney. His fluency in Spanish was a major factor in his success. Later, the Kilgores consented to the continuation of their law practice under its original name because they wanted clients to be able to obtain information and documents pertaining to matters long closed. All of the Kilgores are now deceased. Kilgore & Kilgore PLLC is one of the few law firms in Dallas that has continued to practice under its original name for over 60 years.

Mr. Masterson & Rebecca were there for me every step of the way. They never hesitated to answer all of my questions in a timely manner. They were always in my best interest. Through all aspects of my case, I had the best outcome and would not have been able to do it without them. They felt like family to me at the end of the process and worked with me when others wouldn?t. I can?t thank them enough for closing this chapter in my life.

Clark was quickly available and responsive to my time-sensitive needs regarding an executive employment contract, and options on a response to my employer at the time. He did a great job of reviewing the agreement, and gave me actionable items and reassurance that my courses of action would be sound.

There are times where the power dynamic at your job doesn't work in your favor. Earlier this year I found myself looking for a job two weeks after I reported concerning behaviors on my leadership team. I was very suspicious of the timing and had concerns that I was wrongfully terminated. I reached out to Kilgore & Kilgore, and I was partnered with Daryl Sinkule. He allowed me the space to tell my story and asked me questions to uncover the details. I never felt rushed or that my case might be too small. I was elated to hear the great news that he took my case, as that made me feel validated. Daryle guided me through the process step by step setting expectations the entire way. I felt included in each step of the negotiation process and we collaborated on a path forward. His techniques and Savy behaviors resulted in a financial and emotional win. For this reason, I am giving Daryl and team a full-throated endorsement!!!

I had the need for an attorney to help me solve an issue recently. I contacted Clark Will at Kilgore & Kilgore, explained what my situation was and the urgency I had to get this resolved quickly. Mr. Will was able to make time in his schedule the following day to meet with me to go over my case in greater detail, gave me his professional opinion and was able to take my case that day. After our initial visit Mr. Will and his assistant Susan were very good about staying in contact with me and for always presenting my options. I was able to settle my case without going to court which saved me a lot of money and I received the settlement that was expected. I feel blessed to have worked with such a professional attorney and law firm.

Clark and his team took on my case when literally no other firm would. He was quick, efficient and wasted no time getting to work to craft a phenomenal case against my previous employer. There was no step in this process where Clark didn't ask for my opinion when moving forward with any part of my case. I trusted him fully and he represented me in excellence. Thank you so much for fighting on my behalf.

I can?t say enough good things about this firm. After coming highly recommend, John Crouch and his team at the Kilgore Law Firm made me feel comfortable right away. John walked me through the process, gave clear expectations, and made what could have been a very scary experience a straight forward, quick experience with an outcome that exceeded my expectations.

We were treated with extremely prompt and detailed guidance from the people at Kilgore while combating our frivolous legal issues. Late evenings, Saturdays, it didn?t matter. Our attorney, Eric, guided us through a terrible time in our lives with compassion and clarity. His knowledge and confidence in discussing and representing our case was comforting. Needless to say, it was successful as well. Thanks Eric, and thank you Kilgore.

Working with Nick O?Kelly at Kilgore was fast and professional. I had a difficult issue with a particularly litigious foreign company who doesn?t share our ethics. Nick engaged, negotiated, and ultimately took it to court to preserve my rights against discrimination. If you are in the same situation and need counsel, definitely call Nick and the Kilgore team.

I was given an ultimatum to get a mandatory vaccine by my employer. I knew how I felt about my religious beliefs regarding vaccination. I didn't know where to turn for help to formulate my response to my employer. Clark Will was amazing. He listened to my concerns and beliefs with much compassion. He was truly on my side. He did a great job in helping me. I am happy to say that my religious exemption with my employer was approved. I am very grateful to him for helping me. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again in the future.

Clark Will took my case & gave me hope when another lawyer all but told me to give up. He was aggressive on my behalf, worked tirelessly, and kept me going when I was ready to give up. I fought the other party's non responsive lawyer and got me a great settlement. With Clark Will and his firm you are in great hands!!!

At the end of 2019, I found myself in need of an employment attorney. As a senior level executive employee, I had an employment agreement I had been working under. Within that employment agreement had a defined severance package should the employer decide to "go in a new direction". Unfortunately for me, the employer changed their mind about paying me the outlined severance after telling me they would. I reached out to a friend of mine who recommended I give Ted Anderson a call at Kilgore & Kilgore. That call ended up being a great decision. Through out the process, Ted was extremely professional and his knowledge of the law and legal issues involved was impressive. His ability was on display during a Unemployment Pay Dispute Hearing that we had with the employer and the mediator from the state office. Ted had their witnesses questioned and cross examined in a way that every single lie they had submitted in the written objection to my unemployment claim was brought to light. Their case was falling apart so fast, that their attorney all of a sudden had an "emergency" come up that caused the hearing to be suspended for a few days. Frankly, the entertainment value of seeing him completely rip their case apart and make them look like the liars they were was worth every penny in legal fees I paid. Because of his efforts, Ted was successful in winning my unemployment claim, which laid the foundation for the payment of the severance claim. Ted held firm in negotiations with their legal council taking the process up to 6 weeks prior to the arbitration case was to begin. He negotiated a final settlement which ultimately cost my former employer more money than if they would have just paid out the severance as clearly outlined in the agreement. It can be a long road, as my issue took a little over a year to finish, but it was the right path to take. Without a doubt, if you are a senior executive employee and have a claim with your employer, I would highly recommend Ted Anderson with Kilgore & Kilgore. I pray I never need his services again, but I wouldn't hesitate a second to call him if I did.

Bill Masterson did a superb job handling my personal injury case. While Mr. Masterson has an impressive track record surrounding litigation, given the delicacy of the situation, I did not want to file a law suit. With that said, I demanded satisfaction for my claim. Taking my wishes in to consideration, Mr. Masterson operated quietly and discreetly to achieve the result I sought.

This is a follow-up to my September 29 review. I paid my invoice upon receipt, and did their online reviews when pestered to do so. At that point, all communications from Jessica ceased - even though there was one small project still in the works. I can only assume at this point that she is no longer working on it, as she has not replied to an email or text in six weeks. So very disappointed . . .
