HOUSTON – Veteran Houston-based trial lawyer Ashish Mahendru has earned a repeat selection to the Lawdragon 500 Leading Corporate Employment Lawyers list for 2024.

Mr. Mahendru was selected in the labor and employment litigation category with a specialty in handling trade secret cases. In addition to this second consecutive listing in this acclaimed legal guide, Mr. Mahendru has also been selected to the Lawdragon 500 Leading Plaintiff Financial Lawyers list for the past three years.

“Corporate employment makes up a sizable portion of the cases we take on,” said Mr. Mahendru. “We’re a smaller firm, so being recognized on the national stage for doing quality work for these kinds of clients is especially satisfying. I would like to thank the Lawdragon selection team for this honor.”   

Recognition from Lawdragon is the latest honor in a banner year for Mr. Mahendru and Mahendru P.C. He has been recognized for excellence by The Best Lawyers in America and Texas Super Lawyers. Super Lawyers also named Mahendru P.C. trial lawyer Darren Braun for a sixth time to its Texas Rising Stars list.

This Lawdragon 500 list features top attorneys in several different categories of practice, including employment litigation, trade secret defense, discrimination, ERISA, and wage and hour claims. These honorees include specialists in immigration, employee benefits and executive compensation.

The lawyers and firms who make the final cut for the Lawdragon 500 listings are selected based on multiple factors. These include overall courtroom outcomes, the values of their case verdicts and settlements, and their professional reputations with clients and their peers.
