Vester T. Hughes, a name partner in former Dallas firm Hughes & Luce, died Jan. 29 at 88 after a long career as a tax lawyer.
Hughes had been a partner at K&L Gates in Dallas since 2008, when Hughes & Luce combined with the firm now known as K&L Gates. Craig Budner, a Dallas partner with K&L Gates who had practiced with Hughes for 27 years, said Hughes was tremendously important to the Dallas office and beloved by many of the lawyers. “He always said that no matter how difficult an adversary was, you should always treat them with goodwill. He was a true gentleman,” Budner said.
