Bloomberg Law and The Dallas Morning News report that Biote reached a $60 million settlement with Brewer, Attorneys & Counselors client and Biote shareholder Marci Donovitz in a lawsuit over its merger with a special purpose acquisition company, also known as a “SPAC” or “blank check company.” “This settlement validates our client’s claim that the transaction was a scheme to enrich a few company ‘insiders’ – and reward them with financial and managerial benefits to which they were not entitled,” William Brewer III said in a statement quoted in the media reports. https://lnkd.in/gpi_N4V3

Law 360 showcased the Brewer firm in its article, “Small Firms Put Unique Spin on Summer Associate Programs.” The article notes how the Brewer summer program provides participants with real-life experience, networking opportunities, and social activities. Firm partner Will Brewer says, “We had the law clerks and even the college interns working on substantive stuff, preparing for depositions, attending depositions, taking notes in meetings, going to court if that arises," he said. "We're just trying to give them a good experience, not just watching but also contributing to the end product and really working on the case." https://lnkd.in/g2G_kExg

The Houston Chronicle reports that Brewer Storefront filed a lawsuit on behalf of plaintiff Laura Jaso against the Angleton Independent School District (AISD) alleging that it is violating the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and denying fair representation to Hispanic voters by using an at large election system to elect trustees. William A. Brewer III, founder and partner at Brewer Storefront, said the at-large election system used by the district denies Hispanic voters a fair opportunity to elect school board candidates of their choosing. The article noted that the lawsuit pointed to a lack of diversity among Angleton ISD’s school board and teachers, and an achievement gap between white and Hispanic students. “Obviously, change is needed to address the needs of Hispanic children attending Angleton ISD schools, and to position the parents to address academic outcomes for the students being failed by the District," Brewer said. #votingrights https://lnkd.in/gHHCRwac
