Why Choose Cantey Hanger LLP?
Cantey Hanger is the institutional choice for Fort Worth families and businesses with multi-generational legal needs. The firm is mid-size by national standards — closer-in than Big Law, deeper than a boutique. Its strength is the boring stuff that matters most: real estate, business succession, oil and gas leasing, banking and lending, estate planning, complex commercial litigation. Hourly rates run higher than solo Fort Worth firms but well below Dallas Big Law. Best fit if you have a real estate transaction, a business succession plan, an aviation or aerospace matter, or commercial litigation that needs experienced trial counsel without paying Dallas Big Law rates.

What Clients Say
Sold my third-generation Fort Worth manufacturing business. Cantey Hanger had represented my father since the 1980s. They knew the company's history and structure cold. Closed in 90 days at our target valuation.
Estate planning involving a ranch, mineral interests, and three kids. The team built a structure that protected the ranch in the family while equalizing inheritances. Took the time to actually explain trusts in plain English.
TxDOT wanted to take a corner of our commercial property for a road project. Cantey Hanger negotiated a settlement at four times the original offer. Real expertise in Texas eminent domain practice.
