Barron & Newburger

What Barron & Newburger does

Barron & Newburger, P.C. is a national law firm founded in 1981 and headquartered in Austin, Texas, operating as a privately-held professional corporation with twelve offices across the United States. The firm provides specialized legal services in six core practice areas: Appellate Litigation, Attorneys Risk Management, Bankruptcy, Commercial Litigation, Compliance and Business Counseling Group, and Financial Services. Its attorneys are licensed in thirteen states and admitted to practice in over 35 federal districts, twelve federal appellate courts, and the United States Supreme Court.

The firm's primary client base is the credit and collection industry — banks, debt buyers, law firms, and collection agencies — for which it acts as defense counsel and has served as amicus curiae counsel in cases of national impact. Beyond creditor-side work, the bankruptcy practice group advises parties across the bankruptcy process, including businesses seeking reorganization under Chapter 7, 11, 12, 13, and SubChapter V, with industry-specific experience in restaurants, hospitality, healthcare, real estate, construction, and agriculture. The Attorneys Risk Management practice offers ethics counseling, internal investigations, and professional liability advisory, including appointments to the American Bar Association's Standing Committee on Lawyers' Professional Liability.

The firm generates revenue through traditional professional services fees, including hourly, fixed-fee, and contingency arrangements depending on matter type. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and engagements are quote-based. The firm does not operate any proprietary technology platform, mobile application, or API, and there is no evidence of AI/ML capabilities. Go-to-market relies on content marketing through its News & Views blog, earned media coverage, trade-association educational programs, and professional referrals. The firm has no disclosed parent company, no private equity or venture capital backing, and no subsidiaries, with ownership held by partners/shareholders under a traditional law firm structure. Regina M. Slowey serves as President and CEO.
