Michael S. Lichtmacher
Rodriguez & Lichtmacher, LLP
I believe in advocating for my clients, delivering exceptional customer service at every interaction, and operating with the utmost integrity. These principles are the cornerstone upon which Rodriguez & Lichtmacher, LLP was built.
When clients meet with me, they can expect an attorney who takes the time to truly listen to their concerns, asks thoughtful questions, and pays close attention to detail.
Before entering the legal profession, I spent nearly twenty years working in the banking and financial services industry. During that time, I had the privilege of working with both individuals and corporations to address a wide range of needs. These experiences helped me develop a strong ability to guide clients through estate planning discussions and business planning matters. I also had the opportunity to support large financial institutions in various business roles.
In 2019, I transitioned into the legal field, focusing on business law, real estate, and estate planning. As an Associate Attorney with one of the largest privately held law firms in San Antonio, Texas, I supported multiple practice areas. My work included advising business owners on matters related to their companies, creating estate plans for families, and assisting commercial banks with real estate transactions. In 2020, I founded Rodriguez & Lichtmacher, continuing my work in these areas.
I earned my Juris Doctor degree, cum laude, from St. Mary’s University School of Law, where I served with distinction as a Senior Associate Editor and Staff Writer for the St. Mary’s Law Journal.
