Shortly after the Korean War, Thomas A. Brown left the United States Navy to attend the University of Texas School of Law. In 1957, he joined the Houston firm of Fulbright, Crooker, Freeman, Bates & Jaworski (now Fulbright & Jaworski). With his experience in the Navy, it was no surprise that Brown spent the next decade focused on practicing maritime and energy law.

In 1967, Sims graduated from the University of Texas School of Law. Sims was determined to build a respected and talented firm from the ground up.
