Bracewell & Giuliani, LLP is an American law firm that was formed on March 31, 2005 when former New York City Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani joined the prior firm of Bracewell & Patterson, LLP, as a name partner. The firm is based in Houston, Texas, and dates back to its initial founding on Nov. 1, 1945, when J. S. Bracewell and his two sons, Searcy and Fentress, joined with Judge Bert H. Tunks to practice together in Houston under the name of Bracewell & Tunks. Searcy Bracewell was then elected to the Texas Senate in 1946 representing Harris County, Texas, and ultimately becoming the Majority Leader of the Senate. The firm also has offices in Washington, D.C., San Antonio, Dallas, London, England and the central Asian nation of Kazakhstan. Aside from Giuliani, other noteworthy political figures have worked at the firm, including former U.S. Congressmen Jim Chapman, Edwin Bethune, and Henson Moore, as well as former Montana Governor Marc Racicot, U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Tony Garza, and Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott.
