We do not “specialize” in any particular area of law. Rather, we use our collective litigation and courtroom experience to aggressively and creatively resolve your legal issues. Following is a sampling of some legal areas in which we work. This list is by no means exhaustive, it is simply a representative sample.

Business Disputes:

Businesses have disputes, and they come in many forms.  One company may be pitted against another, perhaps individuals against corporations, or owners of an entity fighting amongst themselves.  Cases may involve contract disputes or allegations of fraud in a business deal.  Perhaps the principals of a partnership or closely held corporation have fallen into discord and dissolution is necessary.  A consumer may have allegations against a retailer for deceptive trade practices.  The list of potential disputes goes on and on, and we have successfully handled cases in each of these scenarios, to name a few.  Creativity and ingenuity are often the cornerstone of solutions in these areas.  But when business solutions do not work, we also possess the fortitude, experience and resolve to take your case to trial. 

Employment Disputes:

Texas is an employment-at-will state. Generally, anyone can be fired at any time for any reason, with specific exceptions. Those exceptions include when the termination was based upon discrimination or retaliation. Whether there has been alleged discrimination based upon race, age, sex or disability, or alleged retaliatory discharge based upon an employee’s refusal to participate in an illegal act, we have handled it, and we will put our energy and experience to work for you.

Medical and Legal Malpractice Defense:

It goes without saying that the practice of medicine and law is highly complex and premised on years of education, training and experience of the medical or legal practitioner. Therefore, it is imperative that complex issues of medicine and law be handled by an experienced trial lawyer who can educate a judge or jury about the real world standards of care that apply to both of these professions. It is also critical to present a defense that is not only understandable to the layperson, but also reasonable in its presentation. Finally, medical and legal malpractice litigation involves specific requirements under both statutory and common law that should not be handled by any attorney who does not have the knowledge or experience in applying these specific legal requirements to the facts or circumstances of any given case. We have that unique knowledge and experience and have successfully defended hundreds of physicians and lawyers from claims brought against them by their patients, clients or other third-parties.

Construction Disputes:

Construction projects often result in disputes. And whenever you have an owner, a general contractor and several sub-contractors all working on a job, it is inevitable that multiple finger-pointing will occur. We have represented owners, general contractors and subcontractors in a wide range of disputes, including disputes involving government projects. Whether it is an individual or corporation in a dispute with a general contractor, a general contractor in a dispute with a subcontractor, or both…we are experienced and ready to vigorously represent your interests.

Product Liability:

We have been involved in product liability cases on many levels. Claims have involved products such as PPA, Baycol and VIOXX, cigarette manufacturers, hospital bed manufacturers and the like. We are uniquely qualified to analyze and understand your claims, your defenses and/or your best trial strategy.

 

Insurance Defense:

 

Our Insurance Defense practice involves the handling of both first party and third party claims and lawsuits on behalf of insurance companies and their insureds, including matters involving allegations of premises defects, product defects, the negligence in the operation of vehicles, construction defects and Architect and Engineer malpractice.
