Clausen Miller Continues Texas Expansion with Dallas Office Opening

Clausen Miller is continuing its expansion in Texas with the opening of a Dallas office. The news comes on the heels of the firm launching a Houston office in August 2022 with Ramy Elmasri serving as the Texas managing partner, and is further evidence of the firm executing its strategic plan to deepen its bench in the Southwest.

This latest office – Clausen Miller’s 12th worldwide – will service clients and expand the firm’s service offerings in insurance coverage, litigation defense, appeals, subrogation, and technology and cyber law. The new office will be located at 325 N. Saint Paul Street in Dallas.

Attorney Ron Burnovski, who has a long history of insurance defense victories in Texas, California and New York, all states in which he is licensed, joins the new office.

“After launching our Texas presence in Houston last year, it became clear that our firm’s way of partnering with clients resonated with insurance carriers and businesses in the Lone Star State, and we moved quickly to meet their needs,” said Dennis Fitzpatrick, Clausen Miller President & CEO.

“We are delighted to have Ron in Dallas as we continue expanding in strategic markets to better serve our clients,” said Texas Managing Partner Ramy Elmasri.

A trusted advisor to insurance carriers in all stages of claims litigation, Ron focuses his practice on first-party coverage, managing all manner of claims from those involving pandemic-related business interruption to weather to construction defect.

“Clausen Miller has a tremendous reputation across the country, and it’s truly remarkable how the firm’s success in Houston over the past six months inspired the opening of an office in Dallas today. I am delighted to spearhead the office and look forward to recruiting new talent in Dallas while servicing clients in the Dallas market and beyond,” said Ron.
