Parks Law PLLC defends injured oilfield workers, maritime employees, and energy landowners in Houston, combining 20 years of legal experience with expertise in petroleum engineering and geology.
A Legacy of Industry Experience
At Parks Law PLLC, our roots run deep in the oil and gas industry. Attorney Ryan Parks comes from a fourth-generation family of energy professionals, giving him an unmatched perspective on the legal and operational challenges faced by those in the field.
For generations, the Parks family has been immersed in the oil and gas sector—from mineral rights ownership to oilfield operations and regulatory navigation. Lafitte Parks’ early years were shaped by the industry, learning from family members who worked directly in oil exploration, drilling, and land management.
Before becoming an attorney, Ryan worked offshore, witnessing firsthand the dangers faced by oilfield and maritime workers. He understands not just the laws and contracts that govern the industry, but also the human cost of negligence, accidents, and corporate oversight. This deep personal connection fuels his relentless advocacy for clients—whether they are injured workers seeking justice or landowners protecting their mineral rights.
This isn’t just a career—it’s a calling to protect the people and businesses that form the backbone of the energy sector.
