Clausewitz Reyes announced that Christopher Lowry has joined the firm’s growing business law practice.
Lowry’s addition expands the firm’s ability to serve businesses across a range of industries, including oil and gas, franchise operations, commercial real estate, and closely held companies. His arrival also strengthens the firm’s transactional and business advisory services throughout Texas.
Lowry brings more than 12 years of legal experience across business litigation, commercial transactions, contract negotiation, mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, and commercial real estate. His background includes eight years in private practice and four years as General Counsel and Executive Vice President for a family office private equity firm.
In that in-house role, Lowry managed legal operations across more than 100 entities, commercial real estate assets in multiple states, and thousands of active contracts. He also supported legal matters involving more than 600 employees, approximately 100 legal entities, and more than 4,400 active contracts, while helping support nearly $70 million in transactions over a four-year period.
Throughout his career, Lowry has advised clients on business issues such as entity formation, ownership disputes, commercial contracts, acquisitions, financing transactions, employment matters, and commercial real estate transactions. His litigation experience also gives him insight into how contracts and business decisions are evaluated when disputes arise, helping clients proactively manage risk and protect their interests.
Lowry was drawn to Clausewitz Reyes due to the firm’s reputation in the legal and San Antonio business communities, along with its focus on practical, growth-oriented legal counsel. The move to San Antonio also marks a personal milestone for Lowry and his family, who have longstanding ties to the region.
The addition reflects Clausewitz Reyes’ continued investment in serving Texas businesses with sophisticated and practical legal counsel. The firm is focused on helping companies navigate every stage of the business lifecycle, including formation, growth, acquisitions, disputes, and strategic expansion.
