Transactional Firm

I have chosen to focus on transactional legal matters, which include the preparation, negotiation and review of legal documents as well as the giving of personal and business legal counsel. Rather than handling contested legal matters, I regularly help to resolve or prevent legal disputes.

The transactional nature of my practice allows me to stay closely connected to my clients. I have had some clients for many years and have been privileged to help and serve them in a variety of legal matters. I look forward to helping you, your family, and your business with the legal counsel you need.

When I represent my clients, I am mindful of the litigious nature of our society, and I constantly assess how I can keep my clients out of litigation and advise them accordingly.

I have chosen to focus my practice on specific types of transactional law, including:

Real Estate Law

Whether you have a residential or commercial real estate need, I can assist you with the drafting and negotiation of the legal documents involved, including contracts, commercial, residential, and retail leases, warranty deeds, oil and gas leases, and easements.

I am Board Certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in the fields of commercial and residential real estate. I review title commitments, mortgage documents, oil and gas leases, and surveys with the familiarity that comes with over 32 years in private practice

My clients include commercial real estate developers, builders, landlords, tenants, property managers, and many other types of real estate transactions.

Estate Planning and Wills

One of my goals is to help you pass your property at your death to your loved ones in the most efficient way possible. I will also help you establish a plan for handling your affairs if you become disabled or incapacitated.

I will listen and counsel you on the various estate planning options and then draft your documents reflecting your specific wishes and desires.

 I also work closely with your financial advisor, accountant, or other trusted advisor as necessary.

Probate

The word "probate" generally raises more questions than answers, and I am here to answer those questions. Those who have lost a loved one usually don't know what, if any, legal processes are required as a result of a death. After reviewing relevant family history, debts and assets of the deceased person, I can recommend the appropriate probate procedure, if any. Based on your circumstances, I can help you obtain Letters Testamentary, provide counsel on the appropriate actions to be taken under a Trust Agreement, or use a variety of informal methods of probate.

Business Law

The life cycle of a business is essentially formation, operation, and termination.

Whether you are forming a brand new business (such as a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, professional association, professional limited liability company, or any other type of business), need help operating an existing business, or winding up and terminating a business, I can help you.

My clients usually come to me for help in forming their business and continue to seek my advice regarding issues which arise in their day-to-day concerns. However, if you have an existing entity and need some assistance operating it, I can help you as well.

I would love to have the opportunity to work with you and advise you on how best to address your business' legal needs.
