A forceful courtroom advocate when necessary, his experience with negotiations, mediation, and arbitration often allows him to help his clients come to an agreement on some of these matters through the use of those alternative dispute resolution methods. Mr. Reimer also handles appeals of family court decisions, and his other work has included the preparation and review of prenuptial and post-marital agreements.. Mr. Reimer pursued his undergraduate education at Dallas Christian College, and in 2002 he received a Bachelor of Science cum laude in theology and psychology. After working in the private sector, he enrolled at South Texas College of Law Houston and was awarded his Juris Doctor in 2007. Mr. Reimer also holds an LL.M. in taxation from the University of Houston Law Center, and this knowledge can be helpful when analyzing and negotiating property division agreements.
