Practice Areas

Our experience in agribusiness is deep-seeded. The attorneys at Chamblee Ryan don’t just have experience and skill in handling the numerous legal issues that face those in agribusiness from their legal careers, but actually have deep-seated personal experiences in the industry, some having grown up on ranches or having been raised in the equine world. Bill Chamblee, managing partner of Chamblee Ryan, has been an active equine participant since he was a young child.  Today, Bill has a herd of eleven horses on his land in Keller, Texas. In 2012, Bill’s equine practice was featured in D Magazine’s D CEO.
