Episode Description

In the next episode of For the Public, we sit down with TYLA alums, Austin Stevenson, City Attorney for McAllen, TX and Courtney White, Senior City Attorney for Amarillo, TX. Austin and Courtney reflect on their paths into public service and the meaningful ways municipal practice allows lawyers to serve their communities every single day. 

From navigating the corporate‑generalist nature of city attorney work to advising on everything from contracts to public safety to economic development, they offer a candid look at what it means to be the legal backbone of a city. Their stories highlight why young lawyers should consider public service roles – where the work is meaningful, the impact is immediate, and the opportunities to grow are endless.
