Introducing Sean Hightower, Texas Super Lawyer Piney Woods Justice

Meet Sean Hightower.  Sean was a member of the first graduating class of the brand new Texas A&M law school who came to practice law by way of a full ride debate scholarship to Stephen F. Austin State University which is where coincidentally (?) he returned to practice law with his long-time mentor, Tim James.  The majority of his cases are first time DWIs with the college students.  He learned passing out koozies at the tailgate parties on campus boosted his business!  Sean has won many awards for his service but nothing beats receiving payment in the form of goats, chickens, tractors and tamales!  He wouldn't have it any other way.  His most memorable case to date involved a murder suspect who shot her husband through the eye as he doused her with gasoline.  Although the DA promised to dismiss the charge, eight years later, Sean was told to pick a jury, they were going to trial the next week.  He ended up losing that verdict, only to have it overturned on appeal because the Judge made some bad calls.  Not only that, but the State's prosecutor hid evidence which ultimately cost her her job.  It's the wild west in east Texas, where anything goes, but justice prevails!
