Gus A. Saper is a fifth generation Houstonian and a third generation Texas A&M "Aggie." While the principal part of his practice is devoted to criminal law, he also enjoys his growing commercial litigation practice. As the business world has become more and more regulated, the world of the criminal practitioner overlaps more with that of the commercial trial lawyer. The ability to understand the similarities as well as the differences and to be able to actively participate in both criminal and civil litigation allows him and his partners to provide a level of service usually found only at much larger firms. After 2 years at Texas A&M University, Gus became a community organizer and VISTA volunteer. After a year working in Atlanta, Georgia and Greenville, South Carolina, he returned to Texas A&M University to get his BA in History. Next, he received his law degree from South Texas College. Gus is certified as a Trained Mediator. Gus has been admitted to practice before the following: U.S. Supreme Court; all Texas Courts; U.S. Court of Appeals 5th Circuit; U.S. District Courts of Texas in the Western, Eastern and Southern Districts; U.S. District Court for Arizona; U.S. District Court for the U.S. Virgin Islands; and the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana.

Gus is actively involved in the following professional organizations: State Bar of Texas; Houston Bar Association; National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers; Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association; Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association; and the Texas Aggie Bar Association.
