Jackson Walker trial partner Curt Langley of Houston was more than surprised to learn recently that his headshot appears on the website of Houston estate planning firm Walsh & Padilla, where he is identified as name partner Jonathan Walsh.

Langley quickly sprung into action, setting off a series of events that include the filing of a lawsuit by the Houston Bar Association alleging Walsh & Padilla is a fictitious firm, the launching of an investigation into the website by the Supreme Court of Texas Unauthorized Law Committee, and the issuing of a consumer warning from the State Bar of Texas.
