Iacuone McAllister Potter PLLC: A Trial Boutique That Splits Its Employment Docket

Iacuone McAllister Potter PLLC, known in the market as IMcP, is not built around a single side of the employment relationship. Its own description of its client base names both “companies and employees” in noncompete and trade secret matters, and separately “employees negotiating a severance, change in control, or other workplace disputes” — a structure worth naming clearly for readers of this Dallas employment lawyer directory before anything else.

At a Glance: This Dallas Employment Trial Lawyer’s Credentials

I. From Big Law and Littler Mendelson to a Trial Boutique

Greg McAllister, a Redlands, California native, graduated from SMU Dedman School of Law and began his career at a large Dallas litigation firm before making partner at one of the world’s largest law firms; he also spent time at Littler Mendelson, a national management-side labor and employment firm, before co-founding IMcP with Joshua Iacuone and Chase Potter. That career arc — training at one of the country’s largest employer-side employment firms — shapes IMcP’s current dual-sided practice, distinguishing its attorneys from firms built exclusively around employee-side advocacy from the outset.

II. Practice Concentration

IMcP’s own description of its client base is explicit about representing multiple sides of the same categories of disputes: entrepreneurs and executives in partnership or business disputes, investors and creditors in bankruptcy litigation, financial advisors in FINRA arbitration or compliance investigations, “companies and employees” in noncompete, trade secret, and contract matters, and employees negotiating severance, change-in-control, or other workplace disputes. Greg McAllister specifically edited and contributed to The Texas Litigator’s Guide to Departing Employee Cases, a resource used by other Texas attorneys handling employee-departure disputes from either side.

III. Track Record

Prior results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome. Awesome Attorneys did not locate a published, itemized results table on the firm’s site.

IMcP does not publish a table of verdicts or settlement figures. Awesome Attorneys was unable to independently verify specific dollar outcomes for this practice and is disclosing that gap directly rather than filling it with estimated figures. The firm states it relies principally on referrals from existing and former clients rather than advertising, which is consistent with a boutique that does not maintain a public-facing results page.

IV. Client Voice

Awesome Attorneys did not locate an independent, aggregated third-party review score (Google, Avvo, or similar) for the firm during this research. IMcP’s own materials emphasize a referral-based client acquisition model built on word of mouth from existing and former clients rather than public review solicitation, which is consistent with the absence of a large public review footprint for a firm of this size and structure.

V. Beyond the Courtroom

Greg McAllister is a board member of One CommunityUSA, volunteers with Dallas Area Habitat for Humanity, and completed the Dallas Regional Chamber’s Leadership Dallas program in 2019. He is a frequent guest speaker at continuing legal education courses for the Dallas Bar Association, the Dallas Association of Young Lawyers, SMU Dedman School of Law, Texas A&M School of Law, and UNT Dallas College of Law.

VI. Recognition

Peer-reviewed and independently conferred credentials: Super Lawyers selection for Greg McAllister (2022–2025); Best Lawyers in America recognition; D Magazine Best Lawyers in Dallas recognition for Labor & Employment (2020–2026, seven consecutive years); and a Tier 1 Best Law Firms ranking in Dallas/Fort Worth for the 2026 edition. Awesome Attorneys did not identify any marketing-program-only awards claimed by this firm.

VII. The Texas Legal Backdrop

Because IMcP’s practice spans both sides of employment disputes, both employee-protective and employer-protective areas of Texas law are relevant to its work. Non-compete and trade secret disputes — central to the firm’s “departing employee” practice — are governed by the Texas Covenants Not to Compete Act (Texas Business and Commerce Code Chapter 15.50) and the Texas Uniform Trade Secrets Act (Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 134A), which permits injunctive relief and, for willful and malicious misappropriation, exemplary damages. Severance and change-in-control negotiations proceed against the backdrop of Texas’s at-will employment doctrine and any applicable ERISA severance-plan provisions where a written severance plan exists.

VIII. Awesome Attorneys Assessment: This Dallas Employment Lawyer’s Strengths and Limits

IMcP’s founders bring genuinely elite training pedigrees — time at one of the world’s largest law firms and at Littler Mendelson, a top national management-side employment firm — combined with seven consecutive years of D Magazine Best Lawyers recognition and a 2026 Tier 1 Best Law Firms ranking. Greg McAllister’s authorship of a widely used Texas departing-employee litigation guide reflects genuine subject-matter standing among peers on both sides of the docket.

The limitation that matters most for readers of this directory is the same one named in the headline: IMcP is not a plaintiff-only or employee-only firm. Its own client description places companies and employees in the same practice category for noncompete and trade secret work. An employee considering IMcP for a departure-related dispute should ask directly whether the firm has represented, or currently represents, their employer or industry competitors in similar matters, since the firm’s referral-based model spans both sides of that relationship.

IX. Methodology & Sourcing

This profile was compiled from the firm’s own website (imcplaw.com), including attorney biographies and firm overview pages; Super Lawyers’ attorney profile for Greg McAllister; the State Bar of Texas directory listing; D Magazine’s online attorney directory; and the Dallas Association of Young Lawyers’ “One to Watch” profile of Greg McAllister. No case results, credentials, or quotes were invented; where independent verification of case outcomes or aggregate reviews was unavailable, that gap is disclosed rather than filled.
