Houston, TX employment law attorney Gregg M. Rosenberg shares the most rewarding aspect of his practice as well as his awards and credentials. He says he has never stopped getting a charge out of helping someone turn a difficult situation around. For him, there’s a particular satisfaction in meeting a client for the first time and making their circumstances significantly better. He describes it almost like a competition, a challenge to see how much he can improve someone’s situation. Over the years, he has been very successful in doing so and has maintained long-lasting relationships with clients.

He recalls one of his favorite experiences: one of the first cases he ever tried was an age discrimination case in the late 1980s. The final judgment came on the very day his second daughter was born. After the case, he maintained a personal connection with the client, calling every Friday for about ten years to discuss football games and other topics—well before texting or email. He notes that relationships like that are among the most rewarding aspects of his work.

He emphasizes the importance of credentials in the legal profession and is particularly proud of his board certification, which he earned in 1994. Maintaining certification requires strict continuing education—15 hours per year in his specialty area of labor and employment law, not including other general legal education.

He has also been privileged to speak at numerous seminars over the years, mainly on labor and employment law, and has provided education to judges. While such presentations do not directly sway rulings, they help establish credibility in the courtroom.

Perhaps his proudest professional achievement came in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when he was asked to edit and prepare the Texas Pattern Jury Charges for employment law from the plaintiff’s perspective. Working with prominent figures, including someone who later became Chief Justice of the Texas Supreme Court, he helped draft the jury instructions that are still in use today, even if updated over the years. Seeing his name credited as an editor continues to be a source of pride and fulfillment.
