Trey Wright

Trey Wright is an associate in SBSB Eastham’s Houston office specializing in all aspects of admiralty and maritime litigation, including matters relating to maritime security, the Jones Act, the Outer Continental Shelf, cargo matters, marine casualty losses for global insurers and vessel arrests and attachments. Additionally, he defends catastrophic personal injury and negligence cases. A member of SBSB Eastham’s bench since June 2021, he is a two-time graduate of Texas A&M University, earning both a Bachelor of Business Administration degree from May’s Business School and a Master of Maritime Business Administration & Logistics degree from the school. After this, he earned his Juris Doctorate from Charleston School of Law, where he was recognized on the Dean’s List.

A formative experience inside Courtroom 600 at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany confirmed Trey’s decision to pursue a career in law. There, he viewed the site where his grandfather served as an MP tasked with guarding Chief Soviet Prosecutor Roman Rudenko during the Nuremberg Trials following World War II. He also spent time serving as a volunteer firefighter, earning “Rookie of the Year” in his department. His valuable lessons about crucial details, teamwork, and sacrifice from his background resonate with the challenges inherent in complex litigation and the steps required to provide his clients the best possible representation.

Trey is admitted to the State Bar of Texas, and in addition to his daily practice, he gives back to his local community in multiple areas, assisting underserved and at-risk students through Elevation STEM Texas, a 501(c)3 developer of STEM programs based on flight simulation and marine engineering. Nationally, he is a member of the Next-Generation Leaders Cohort with the White House Historical Association in Washington, D.C. Dedicated inside and outside the courtroom, clients know him to be personable, attentive and hard-working in serving their needs.
