Brant Martin is Board Certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in Civil Trial Law and is a commercial trial lawyer in the Litigation section of Wick Phillips. His practice focuses on all facets of trial and commercial litigation, from pre-lawsuit disputes, through discovery, jury selection, argument, and post-verdict practice. He has represented and counseled clients in Texas and around the United States across a broad spectrum of industries, including financial institutions, medical devices, investment funds and their sponsors, and gaming.

Brant has successfully litigated on behalf of and against large and small clients in all manner of disputes, trying numerous bet-the-company cases to verdict. He has extensive experience in class actions and other complex commercial litigation in federal and state courts nationwide.

Brant appeared before the U.S. Supreme Court in early 2022 to present an argument on behalf of Ysleta del Sur Pueblo. The favorable 5-4 decision reaffirmed the Tribe’s sovereign authority over their members and territories. In high-stakes cases such as this, Brant’s experience gives him the ability to advocate fearlessly on behalf of his clients. He frequently assists companies with significant matters related to emerging regulatory developments, not only working with them during the course of lawsuits, but also helping to determine critical issues affecting the way they do business and ways to mitigate their exposure to further litigation.

Brant was valedictorian of his graduating class at the SMU School of Law, also serving as Editor-in-Chief of the SMU Law Review. Prior to entering private practice, Brant was a law clerk to Judge Richard A. Schell, U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Texas, and is admitted to practice in all court levels of the State of Texas.

Brant is active in numerous charitable causes in the Fort Worth community, including the Hatton W. Sumners Foundation, Camp Fire USA, Make-A-Wish Foundation of North Texas, Child Advocates of Tarrant County, and Trinity Valley School.
