Our History
Born from the Spindletop oil boom and forged through generations of challenges, OBT leads the way in legal excellence. Our History The history of Orgain Bell & Tucker began at the turn of the 20th century, when William E. Orgain, a University of Texas graduate and former Texas legislator, moved to the burgeoning town of Beaumont. Orgain, along with thousands of others, came to Beaumont on the heels of the 1901 Spindletop oil boom-the largest oil discovery and economic game-changer of our time. Unlike those who sought their future in oil, however, Orgain had his eye on land litigation. By the time the Spindletop field had its second oil boom in 1925, Orgain had built not only a solid legal practice but also a reputation for integrity and expertise.
