I’m committed to providing my clients with the legal guidance they need – to resolve their disputes, negotiate their deals, help them settle their business challenges, and more – as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible. I can't do that without a comprehensive understanding of their business, strategic objectives, and commercial challenges. The two go hand-in-hand: delivering the best possible result is only possible when I know how they define ‘best.’ Recognized as a top defense attorney in the United States, Gary helps national and regional clients resolve complex commercial litigation: real estate disputes, products liability claims, trademark infringement, employment litigation, and other disputes before state and federal courts and arbitration venues, including the International Court of Arbitration. He defends commercial and residential brokerages against lawsuits and administrative complaints and represents real estate professionals (sales agents and brokers) in issues before the Texas Real Estate Commission and other regulatory authorities. Gary also protects the rights of manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, and other employers in matters brought by former employees who violate restrictive covenants. In addition, companies look to Gary for guidance on transactional matters – from buying and selling businesses and asset purchase agreements to real estate transactional documents and closings, commercial leases, easements, and beyond. Gary’s most notable courtroom victory was trying a one-month jury trial in Fort Worth, Texas, to remove a shareholder from a company who had committed fraud on the company. He prides himself on his willingness to handle each matter in the most appropriate fashion – avoiding protracted litigation but never shying away from the courthouse. While he will negotiate a settlement when it truly is in his client’s best interest, Gary stands ready to take the fight into the courtroom to achieve the result his client deserves. Clients appreciate Gary’s dedication and welcome his responsiveness. From a prompt reply to email or a quick call, Gary keeps his clients updated so that they can meet internal and external deadlines. Most importantly, he works hard to see that his clients achieve their strategic objectives and business goals.
