meet armi, your reservoir attorney.
Firm Partner Armi Easterby leads the Williams Hart commercial trial section with 25 years of experience behind him. He specializes in commercial litigation, particularly in complex commercial and consumer cases, ranging from business disputes to man-made environmental catastrophes.
Armi’s journey in the legal industry began after graduating from the University of Texas in Austin in 1992. Finding his passion for serving those in need, he entered the University of Houston Law Center where he graduated cum laude in 1996 and was Associate Editor for the Houston Law Review. He joined Williams Hart in 2005, and started the commercial trial section in 2008. Adding to his history of success with the firm, Armi recently won a historic case in the upstream condemnation trial. On December 17th, 2019, the United States Court of Federal Claims issued an official ruling in favor of Upstream homeowners and businesses on their Fifth Amendment inverse condemnation claims. The presiding Judge found that the government’s actions relating to the Addicks and Barker Dams and the ensuing flooding of plaintiffs’ properties constituted a taking under the Fifth Amendment. |
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Before coming to Williams Hart in 2005, Armi was a partner and trial lawyer at Looper Reed & McGraw in Houston, where his emphasis was in commercial litigation, particularly in complex commercial and consumer cases.
