Texas active pass
Texas attorney watch starts with public records.
Public defenders, court-appointed counsel, private attorneys, firms, and bar sources belong in the same legal-power map. The rule is simple: public source first, profile second, and no named public defender page until an official roster and license source are attached.

Source seededJ. Brandt Thorson, PLLC
Image: J. Brandt Thorson public website
Longview law firm focused on criminal, family, personal injury, and Social Security disability matters according to its public site.
Why it is here
The firm page is seeded because the public site states Brandt Thorson is a former Gregg County felony prosecutor. Former-government roles and current courtroom work need sourced context, not assumptions.

Longview law firm at 1504 Colony Circle tied to attorney Raymond E. "Bo Rogers" Rogers Jr. Public sources list family law, probate, estate planning, real estate, business law, litigation, and turnover receivership practice areas.
Why it is here

The State Bar directory is the license-status starting point for Texas attorney profiles before RepWatchr attaches court, representation, grievance, funding, or public-record evidence.
Why it is here
Attorney scrutiny has to start with the official licensing record. RepWatchr should not profile a Texas attorney as licensed without a source path back to the State Bar or another official court/bar record.
