Meet Franklin

Franklin Hill serves business and entrepreneurial clients as outside general counsel, coupling his experience as a commercial litigator with over a decade of experience working in small business and entrepreneurial environments. This practical education informs the counsel he gives clients and is equally applicable in both adversarial and collaborative settings. It also lends him a unique perspective as to the challenges and rewards encountered by clients setting out on their own and has taught him to value and cherish personal relationships, a strength he brings to his clients.

Franklin represents clients in the commercial real estate, construction, energy, entertainment, and hospitality sectors, and routinely advises concerning commercial disputes, landlord-tenant matters, creditors’ rights issues, commercial real estate transactions, and general business matters. He also manages all aspects of a diverse civil litigation docket and has represented clients in courtrooms all across the State of Texas.

Outside of work, Franklin enjoys spending time in nature, and attained the rank of Eagle Scout as a younger man. He also loves traveling, cooking for his family, Fightin’ Texas Aggies sports, and all things musical, including writing original songs and composing original music.
