Areas of Practice


Complex Commercial Litigation

We have consistently handled complex business disputes since the firm’s inception. On several occasions, our trial work has led to multi-million dollar recoveries for clients that were wronged in a business dispute. Whether your issue is a partnership dispute, breach of contract or fiduciary duty, or fraudulent activity, we can help. In addition to trying these types of cases, the firm routinely obtains TROs and preliminary injunctions for our clients. We also defend those that stand wrongfully accused of these types of activities.


catastrophic personal injury

Your personal health is your greatest asset. When that is stolen from you or a loved one because of the negligence of others, you are entitled to just compensation, and we are here to make sure you have it. Big insurance companies often stand in the way of this. We have the resources and experience to fight them toe to toe—and we love to do it. Whether your injury relates to a car accident, oilfield injury, defective product, or something else, we will be by your side every step of the way to make sure you are justly compensated and the defendant is held accountable.


PATENT litigation

Whether you are a patent owner or the named inventor on the asserted patent, there is no better place to bring your patent case than the Eastern District of Texas. The judges in this district have handled more patent cases than any other judges in the country. And they have streamlined the judicial process with lightning-quick trial settings and local patent rules. Most importantly, they believe in the jury system; cases with merit are not prematurely poured out on summary judgment. But you must be ready to explain highly technical concepts to the jury in a very simple and effective manner. That’s what we do and that is why we are repeatedly hired by patent plaintiffs and their national counsel from all over the world.

If you stand accused of patent infringement in the Eastern District of Texas, you must prepare for trial—not summary judgment. This is a common mistake among large defense firms. And many times, it is the client, not its lawyers, who pays dearly for this mistake. We do not do this; from the start we prepare to try your case to a jury. This saves time, money, and potentially, the livelihood of your business.


LOCAL COUNSEL SERVICES

Texas is a big, diverse state. If you are a lawyer from outside East Texas, it can be a daunting task to understand how people in the community think and feel about your case. Compliance with local rules and standing orders can be difficult as well. We routinely help out-of-towners pick juries and win cases in both federal and state court. If you are involved in high stakes litigation in this district, we should be your first phone call.


oil and gas litigation

This firm routinely handles oil and gas disputes. Whether you are seeking unpaid royalties, have a lease dispute, or want to enforce a mineral agreement that has not been honored, we have the experience to try your case. This firm has protected the mineral rights of individuals against some of the biggest companies in Texas, including Fortune 500 Companies. If you think your mineral rights are being infringed upon, call us.


EMPLOYMENT LAW

Non-competes, discrimination, and workers’ compensation retaliation are just a few of the employment matters we handle routinely. Whether you need a temporary injunction or must defend against one, we have the experience to get you results. Likewise, we have successfully tried retaliation and breach of employment agreements to juries across Texas. We know how to defend these cases and we know how to prosecute them.
