Attorney Information
Overview
Paul Manigrasso is a four-time Super Lawyers Rising Star and the founder of Manigrasso Law Firm. A CPA and the former CFO of an SEC registrant, he is currently the only Texas attorney with a dedicated focus on the wine industry, advising vineyards, wineries, distributors, and hospitality businesses on the complex intersection of alcohol compliance, tax strategy, and business law.
Beyond his work within the Texas wine sector, Paul has developed a second core specialty: serving U.S. taxpayers living abroad. With deep experience in federal taxation and international reporting requirements, he helps expatriates protect their global assets, maintain compliance, and minimize tax exposure.
Paul’s dual passions — supporting Texas’ rapidly growing wine economy and helping Americans around the world navigate U.S. tax obligations — drive a unique and internationally relevant legal practice grounded in precision, strategy, and responsiveness.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
