Austin-based McGinnis Lochridge, which has already made 16 lateral hires this year, has now added two partners from Haynes and Boone and will open a new office in Dallas.

Labor and employment lawyer Felicity Fowler, who joined McGinnis Lochridge on May 23, will head the new Dallas office and split her time between Dallas and Houston. The other Haynes and Boone lateral hire is energy litigation attorney Donald Jackson, who is a McGinnis Lochridge alumni. He rejoined the firm in Houston on May 21.
