Construction and Development 50%

Construction law is a complex field of practice involving dozens of construction-only statutes and hundreds of cases interpreting those statutes. It takes years of experience to understand those statutes and cases. Our clients are general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, engineers, architects, and owners all across Texas. We assist clients with making and defending against bond and lien claims, and develop powerful contracts to reduce clients' exposure and increase profits.

Litigation 50%

I have handled over 200 litigation matters, most of which deal with commercial construction and oil and gas construction issues, for both plaintiffs and defendants . My cases typically involve construction defects, claims for payment, construction accidents, delay damages claims, mechanics lien claims, and bond claims. I have specialized knowledge in the field of geotechnical engineering (soil science), and have handled many cases involving building problems due to soil settlement and heave.
