I represent national banks, Fortune 500 companies, business executives, and defrauded investors in disputes involving breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, misappropriation of trade secrets, fraud, fraudulent transfers, and claims arising under the Texas Uniform Commercial Code.
My depth of experience โ first-chair class action and multidistrict litigation, trials to verdict, and appeals argued to affirmance in the Fifth Circuit and Texas's Fifth Court of Appeals โ centers in three primary areas: financial services litigation, complex commercial disputes, and oil and gas litigation.
