Jackson Walker partner Chip Babcock is in the news again, representing another television talk show host. This time it’s Dr. Phil.
Babcock, who offices in Houston and Dallas, successfully defended Oprah Winfrey against Texas cattlemen’s lawsuits filed in the 1990s. Those lawsuits involved allegations that an episode of Winfrey’s show on mad-cow disease had violated Texas’ so-called "veggie libel law" and caused beef prices to drop.
