Our Firm
West & West, Greer & Estorga traces its roots to 1938, when a tradition of trusted, community-centered legal service began in San Antonio — a tradition that continues today across South-Central Texas.
Our Story
West & West, Greer & Estorga is rooted in more than a century of service to the San Antonio legal community. The firm's story began with Ancil S. West — an educator, attorney, judge, and the first dean of San Antonio's original public law school. His leadership helped shape legal education in San Antonio and contributed to the establishment of what would become St. Mary's University School of Law.
That legacy continued through Ancil's son, Ottis A. West, who served as a justice of the peace, San Antonio City Council member, and United States Navy veteran before establishing West & West with his father. Ottis later practiced alongside his son, North O. West, who joined the firm after serving in Vietnam and built a distinguished career representing individuals, families, businesses, and public institutions throughout the San Antonio area.
Today, the West family's tradition of integrity, service, and commitment to the community is carried forward by Dean Greer, Matthew Johnson, and Jessica Estorga. Together, they have expanded the firm's reach and capabilities while remaining grounded in the values that have guided it for generations: trusted counsel, lasting relationships, and dedicated service to Texas families and businesses.
