The Calvert Inn is the first Inn established in Austin and has been awarded Platinum recognition by the American Inns of Court for multiple years. Applications are welcome from any practicing attorney or judge in Travis County and the contiguous counties. Membership is open to all licensed Texas attorneys, regardless of area of practice or trial experience.

The application deadline is May 31 of each year. Anyone interested should submit a letter stating their interest in joining, a resume, and two letters of recommendation (preferably from members of the legal community) to our Membership Chairs:  Matt Garcia matt@barnettgarcia.com and Shelby L.

Membership is limited and the number of admissions is based upon the available number of openings. Successful applicants are admitted as Associates (licensed less than 8 years), Barristers (licensed 8-20 years) or Masters (licensed 20 years or more). The Inn meets monthly September - April of each year, with each meeting including dinner and a presentation by Inn members.
