William Henry Stout

William Henry Stout co-founded Sutliff & Stout, PLLC because he wanted to help real people with real problems. Raised in a small West Texas town, Hank was taught the value of hard work, determination, fairness and helping others. And his early interest in the law was inspired by his greatest role model, his father.

As the son of an attorney and former State Court District Judge, Hank learned as a child that through the legal system you can help folks stand up for themselves and hold irresponsible people and companies accountable for their actions.

After graduating high school, Hank attended the University of Mississippi where he earned his degree in just three and a half years. He then enrolled in law school at South Texas College of Law in Houston, Texas and earned his doctor of jurisprudence in just two and a half years.

Upon completing law school, Hank worked as a trial attorney for several large law firms, including Phelps Dunbar and Chamberlain Hrdlicka. While working at these large law firms.

Hank represented Fortune 500 companies, mid-sized businesses and large insurance companies. Having learned how large corporations and insurance companies operate, Hank decided to leave his practice at the large firm and focus his legal practice on personal injury.

In 2008, Hank and Graham Sutliff established Sutliff & Stout PLLC to represent the rights of individuals and families. Through the justice of the legal system, Sutliff & Stout PLLC seeks to help individuals and families who have been harmed by the carelessness of others.
