Executives require dedicated and aggressive counsel for the protection of their legal rights.. Whether you are moving between companies or renegotiating your current contract, executive employment arrangements are complicated. An attorney solely focused on your best interest in crafting the contractual relationship with your employer is invaluable.. My practice is dedicated to the representation of executives. I represent executives in employment negotiations, mergers and acquisitions, contract renegotiations, terminations and severance agreements.. Termination scenarios often involve litigation or arbitration on behalf of my clients. I have successfully resolved contentious claims involving executives in numerous termination scenarios involving good reason claims, for cause terminations, non-compete disputes and complex contractual disputes regarding deferred compensation and severance benefits.. Whether you are seeking advice on the details and potential tax implications of a deferred compensation arrangement or you need advice regarding the implications of various termination scenarios, my experience can assist you in securing the optimal result.

Holistic, client-focused legal services.. Clients' needs and objectives rarely fit into one-size-fits-all cookie-cutter boxes. The first step is listening carefully and asking the right questions, to understand what the client's needs and objectives really are.. Often, approaching a task from a new or different perspective, can save time, reduce conflict, and reduce expenses.. Many lawyers promise outside-the-box, novel thinking. In reality, few deliver.. My track record of service to clients, over the years, demonstrates original and novel thinking, combined with thorough preparation, in case after case.. Indeed, one publication, commenting on a routine motion that I recently filed in federal court, went so far as to describe my approach in one intellectual property case as "very powerful" and so "potent," that "every paragraph is worth quoting.". I view the attorney's role as a problem-solver, not as a problem maker.. My primary objective, whenever reasonably possible, is to promote understanding and communication, and to help develop effective strategies to make difficult problems and situations tractable, and to bring solutions within reach.. Once resource well worth reading, even if you are my opposing counsel, is Robert Axelrod's book The Evolution of Cooperation. My premise, starting any negotiation or case, is that the other side will usually be more inclined to "cooperate" (i.e., find a fair, win-win solution) rather than to "defect," (i.e., to demand more than their fair share), and to begin the process by seeking to find a cooperative solution. Cooperators, when they find one another, and get a chance to cooperate, tend to be mutual "winners" in just about every ecosystem.. What happens, instead, when the litigation or negotiation counterparties are unreasonable, selfish, and (in Axelrod's terms) defectors? Well, those cases are the exception rather than the rule, but such cases can and do happen.. When necessary, it is also important to be prepared and willing to go the distance and to present the strongest case possible, whether in court, in a private negotiation, or in an ADR proceeding. It does not please me, for instance, to seek sanctions against another lawyer for overstepping the bounds of proper conduct. But when appropriate and necessary, precisely for the purpose of promoting future cooperation, I have sought and won sanctions against unreasonble litigation opponents.. For instance, in one recent probate case, I secured several thousand dollars in sanctions to reimburse my clients for at least part of what they spent defending against a weak case filed by some Michigan (their emphasis) "Superlawyers." The highest praise one can get in this profession, is when the result you obtain for your client is so favorable, and the other side learns so much from that result, that they later refer a case to you or even hire you.. Thanks, "Superlawyers;" I hope we can do business together as friends in the future. Likewise, when representing an entertainment client, in one case I secured a result so favorable for my client (the other side not only paid the entire debt we demanded, plus my entire fee, plus the fee of an arbitrator) that the former opponent later hired me to handle a contested case involving a very large building in downtown Detroit. Subsequently, when that music client has money to collect, generally the client does not even have to pay me fees; the story of what happened in the prior case tends to be so memorable, that collection issues for that client rarely last more than a few days.. In another case, most of a client's expenses defending against what reasonably was viewed by both a judge and by my client, as a meritless suit, were reimbursed. The other side in that case was represented by one or more attorneys then working in a law office that subsequently became a local branch of a statewide law firm.. The bottom line is that cooperation and negotiation are all the more successful, and produce more lasting results, when the counterparty in each process fully understands that their best alternative to a negotiated agreement (BATNA), seeRoger Fisher, William L. Ury & Bruce Patton, Getting to YES (Houghton Mifflin, ed., 2nd ed. 1991), is vastly less attractive, objectively speaking, than a fair and reasonable, negotiated, outcome.. This is not to promise that you will necessarily enjoy the same results as the examples referenced above. Each case and each representation involves its own facts and its own issues. But when I choose to take on your matter, it is always my intention to give you nothing less than my best service.

I consider myself a criminal defense trial attorney. Whether it is trying a misdemeanor Driving While Intoxicated case to a much more serious felony assault charge, I truly love going to bat for people. My practice consists of representing individuals charged with the full spectrum of criminal offenses. The thing that separates my law practice from most others is that I pride myself on personal service. When dealing with me, phone calls get returned promptly and questions are answered timely. Frequently people tell me that they have never met a lawyer who was so approachable or gave them honest answers about their case until they met me. I invite you to come in for a free consultation. If nothing else, I can promise you will know more about your case than you did when you came in and it won't cost you a dime.

Eric is an attorney with a license to practice in the State of Texas. He is also a fully registered and licensed patent attorney with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Before opening his own practice, he developed legal experience working for small and mid-sized law firms which primarily focused on business and intellectual property. Eric brings experience to patent and trademark prosecution (drafting, searching, filing). He is equally experienced in contract formation, review, and modification. Above all else, he is a proud father and a hardworking husband who values his family.. Eric graduated from St. Mary's University School of Law, where he focused his studies for a career in intellectual property law. While a student there he was a member of and later became the president of the Technology & Intellectual Property Law Association (a student interest group). Despite the rigors of law school, he found time to volunteer as an income tax preparer for the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program to serve the local community. Also while still a law student, Eric interned at the University of Texas at San Antonio Office of Commercialization and Innovation, which manages the university's intellectual property development. Afterwards, he accepted a position as a legal clerk doing research, review, and drafting of legal documents for an established IP boutique law firm. He worked there until the birth of his daughter, choosing to focus on completing law school and being a father.. Prior to his legal career, Eric was first and foremost a scientist. Upon graduating from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry, he worked for Southwest Research Institute, (San Antonio, Texas) as a project specific research scientist. In that time he worked on many highly technical projects in various capacities including researcher, author, and plant operator.. There are several distinct benefits that Eric can provide his clients. For example, as a young attorney, he is uniquely positioned to deliver cost efficient services. Budgets and the times being what they are, consider that the ideal attorney may not be one who has 20 years of experience. Consider instead an attorney that can deliver the quality expected of a more experienced attorney in a leaner priced package.. Another important advantage is Eric’s ability to adapt as a professional. Being able to process and respond to changes in the law, in technology, or in a client’s needs is a skill that is increasingly essential in the modern economy. Eric believes that success in any endeavor is about a well disciplined mindset that comes from preparation, focus, and practice. His experiences have taught him that the level of organization that you maintain in both professional and personal life will create the room to avoid problems and be ready to benefit from opportunities.. Eric is a San Antonio native, born and raised. As such he has seen many changes over the years. Recently, he has seen the effects that a lack of access to quality legal services has had on the local economy. Many individuals and small businesses risk the dangers of not seeking legal consultation because it is simply not affordable. But it is his sincere hope to change that dynamic by using affordable access to the legal system as a means to even the field for individuals, start-ups, and small businesses alike.
