Cody Dumas represents businesses and healthcare organizations in corporate transactions, restructurings, governance matters, and complex commercial disputes. He advises owners and executive leadership on issues that shape the direction, stability, and long-term performance of their organizations, from formation and growth through periods of transition and strategic change.
Mr. Dumas began his legal career in-house within a vertically integrated healthcare enterprise and later served as Chief Legal Officer of a rapidly growing Houston-based health system. That executive experience informs his counsel today. He approaches each engagement with an understanding of how legal strategy affects operations, financial performance, regulatory exposure, and organizational culture.
He is frequently engaged during moments of inflection—whether expansion, ownership change, financial strain, or internal realignment—providing steady, commercially grounded advice that aligns legal solutions with business objectives. In addition to his transactional and restructuring practice, Mr. Dumas serves as outside general counsel to companies seeking ongoing strategic guidance without maintaining a full-time legal department.
