Business and contract disputes, decided on the record.
Unpaid invoices, broken supply and services agreements, guaranties, lender disputes and the business torts that ride along with them. We bring the case or defend it — from the demand letter through summary judgment, trial, appeal and collection.
What we handle
- Breach of contract — goods, services, supply and distribution agreements
- Suits on account and unpaid invoices
- Guaranty and lender disputes
- Fraud, tortious interference and other business torts
- Commercial lease disputes
- Defending an owner sued personally for a company’s debt
How we approach it
Most contract cases are decided by paper: the agreement, the invoices, the emails, and the declarations each side files. We read all of it first, and we hold the other side’s evidence to the rules.
In Aramcor v. Tri Marsh Retail both of the defendant’s summary judgment declarations were stricken — one for contradicting its own discovery answers — and the court then granted judgment on the contract claim. The order is published on this site.

Questions people ask
I was sued personally over my company’s debt. Can they do that?
Plaintiffs often name the owner to add pressure. Whether that claim holds depends on what you signed and what you did. In Enterprise Holdings v. Veritas Consulting, our client — named individually — was dismissed and the judgment ran against the company alone.
Can I recover my attorney’s fees?
In Texas a party who prevails on a claim for breach of a written or oral contract can generally recover reasonable attorney’s fees from an individual or an organization. Fees were awarded in several of the judgments described on this site.
Do you handle cases outside Austin and Dallas?
Yes. We appear in state and federal courts across Texas — recent matters were in Williamson, DeWitt, Galveston and Harris counties and in the Northern and Western Districts of Texas.
What should I send you?
