Vargas has served on the State Bar Board of Directors since 2019. He served as 2018-2019 president of the San Antonio Bar Association and is a past-president of the San Antonio Young Lawyers Association. Vargas also served as a member and eventually chair of the State Bar Local Bar Services Committee from 2012 to 2019, and sat on the State Bar Annual Meeting Committee in 2015. He is a Fellow of the Texas Bar Foundation and San Antonio Bar Foundation and a member of the William S. Sessions American Inn of Court.
