Sean C. Urich

A Strategic and Compassionate Advocate in a Complex Employment Dispute

When our mid-sized technology company faced a high-stakes wrongful termination lawsuit from a former executive, the situation felt overwhelming. We needed counsel who was not only a formidable litigator but also understood the nuanced landscape of Texas employment law. From our first consultation, Sean Urich demonstrated exactly why he has been recognized by Best Lawyers. His 24 years of experience, particularly in Litigation - Labor and Employment, were immediately evident. He meticulously deconstructed the plaintiff's claims, developed a coherent defense strategy rooted in documented company policies, and guided our leadership team through every deposition and discovery request with remarkable clarity. What truly set Sean apart was his ability to balance aggressive legal defense with pragmatic business advice. He understood that a drawn-out court battle could be damaging, and his skillful negotiation led to a settlement that protected our company's reputation and financial interests far better than we had anticipated. His professionalism from the Ogletree Deakins firm and his deep, Dallas-based expertise were invaluable assets. We are profoundly grateful for his exceptional service and strategic guidance, which turned a potentially catastrophic situation into a manageable and resolved matter.
