Drake Rayshell
Associate

Learning about the law and its application has been and will continue to be my life’s work because I enjoy searching for solutions to the ever-evolving puzzles and dilemmas our society produces. 

Drake Rayshell joined Gray Reed’s Litigation Department after participating in the firm’s 2019 summer associate program. He graduated with his B.A. in Government and a Business Foundations Certificate from the University of Texas and his J.D. from Baylor Law School. While attending Baylor Law school, Drake was a senior executive editor of the Baylor Law Review, made the Dean’s list 7 out of 9 quarters and served as a grading assistant in the Baylor Legal writing department.

Drake was also a champion of the M.D. Anderson Spring 2018 Moot Court competition and a competitor of the SIU National Health Law, Judge John R. Brown Admiralty Law Moot Court competitions and “Mad Dog” Mock Trial Competition.
