A Diverse Practice that Works for You
Some firms pride themselves on doing one area of the law only. We believe that singular focus does not put the attorney in the best position to advise their client. Why is that important? The law, much like life, is often complicated. Disputes don’t fall into neat categories. What starts as a family dispute may eventually involve issues related to criminal law, taxes and even estate planning. It’s not uncommon for our civil litigation clients to find themselves having to deal with the business fallout from lawsuit filed against them. The last thing you want in the middle of a contentious dispute is to have your lawyer have to make a “referral” because your case became more complicated.
We are a full service law firm. Our attorneys are well versed in multiple interconnected areas of the law. This allows us to provide a “big picture” perspective taking into account all legal angles of a case, not just the limited scope covered by a specialty.
Civil Litigation and Appeals
Commercial, business, and personal injury litigation including: breach of contract, business and partnership disputes, landlord-tenant disputes, adjoining landowner disputes and Deceptive Trade Practices (“DTPA”), fraud, real estate disputes, torts and all other disputes, appeals and writs in the appellate courts.
Estate Planning and Probate
The death of a friend or family member is a sad and stressful time. This can be made worse when it’s time to probate their estate. Let our team help you through these trying times. We can assist with all aspects of the probate process including probating wills, handling administrations, handling inventories, and much more.
