Business Services

I understand the complexities and challenges that come with running a business. I can help you prevent or limit any resulting damage from a breach of contract when a partner, vendor, or third-party acts unlawfully, violates the terms of a contract, or fails to perform any promise contained in a legally binding contract. I can assist you with structuring your business to protect your personal assets and income from unforeseen liabilities.

My experience extends to limited liability companies, C and S corporations, partnerships and other business forms. I advise clients on all aspects of entity and business formation, relations between owners, agreements with employees, relationships with vendors, customers, suppliers and distributors as well as day-to-day business matters.

Business Litigation

During my fifteen plus years of practice I represented every type of consumer financial services company, including national and state-chartered banks, finance companies, mortgage lenders and servicers, credit card issuers, automobile lenders, student lenders, community banks, credit unions and insurance providers. My experience includes hundreds of lawsuits and pre-litigation disputes in state, federal, and bankruptcy courts throughout Texas and the United States. I regularly defend clients against actions filed by third parties such as tax-lien lenders and home owner’s associations that seek to strip or limit a client’s interest in real property through a court proceeding.

I am experienced in all manner of issues related to real property and title to interests in real property.  It is important to consult with an attorney about the careful drafting of the deed to achieve the desired results in a real estate transaction as the type of deed and the clauses used in a deed can greatly alter the effect of a transfer. 

Often a title search performed by a title company prior to a real estate closing reveals unknown defects in the chain of title such as liens or judgments. I am experienced in removing liens from real property and delivering marketable title to a buyer of your property.

My firm provides litigation services concerning both commercial and residential real estate. Common issues litigated include breach of contract for sales agreements, suits to declare title, and suits to quiet title.

I represent individuals and businesses on appeals from trial court judgments.  My experience includes dozens of successful appellate representations in various Texas state courts of appeal up to the Supreme Court of Texas and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.

My expertise includes using the somewhat esoteric restricted appeal and bill of review process to combat wrongfully taken default judgments. Multiple times during my career I saved and revived my clients’ interest in real property and avoided significant monetary damages and judgments perpetrated through manipulation of the service of process requirements of the court system.        

When attorneys and businesses need local counsel, I provide valuable insight through my fifteen plus years of litigation experience and former role as a federal law clerk in the Eastern District of Texas. From initial pleadings and appearances through trial, my litigation experience allows me to assist clients in the often-perplexing system of the Eastern District of Texas.  I also assist clients facing litigation in the district courts of Collin County, Texas, providing experienced local counsel services as to local policies and procedures as well as legal briefing and appearances coverage. 

Estate Planning

My firm designs customized plans for each client to ensure the successful transition of their assets when the time comes. I work with families and individuals on matters such as wills, trusts, financial and medical powers of attorney, survivorship agreements and physician’s directives.

My goal is your utmost confidence and sense of security in
these important matters.

Probate

It is our honor to provide compassionate assistance to a personal representative of an estate after a death occurs. The number of decisions required and weight of responsibility can be overwhelming. My firm can help shoulder that weight and navigate what can be very difficult days following the death of a loved one. We ensure the decedant’s wishes are carried out and that the family members are treated with the utmost of care and concern.
