I like to describe my law practice this way--- as "practicing real law for real people.". What does this phrase mean ? It means that my practice consists of handling the kind of cases most regular people have such as:. --- Divorce and Family Law Matters. --- Wills, Estate Planning and Probate Matters. If you're looking for a big downtown Dallas firm, we're not that firm. If, on the other hand, you want to work with a lawyer who knows who you are and exactly what your issues are, we are that firm. You won't be handed off from one junior associate attorney to another as you would in a high dollar firm. Rather--- together we will work as partners in going through the legal process to handle the difficult legal matters that you and your family are facing. There is a lot to be said for being on a first name basis with your attorney. In my mind, it shows that your input, issues, and family are properly valued--- after all, it's your life--- not just a case.. Once the current legal crisis is over, you and your family are not alone. Much as you might have a family physician, I consider myself a "family lawyer" and am looking forward to developing that long term relationship with you. This means that if you have a legal problem in the future, you will have the security of knowing who to call.. While I am sorry to be meeting you under the difficult circumstances you currently face, I do look forward to helping you understand your options.....

Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation
Hello, if you are in need, I would like to be your attorney. The following is a brief history of the things that led me to where I am today.. I was born and raised in a small Texas border town, called Del Rio. After graduating from Del Rio High School, I moved to the big city of Lubbock and attended, then graduated from Texas Tech with a major in history and a minor in anthropology.. Looking for a change in my life, I spent some time in the Los Angeles, California metropolitan area working various jobs, including insurance adjusting. Many of the claims I adjusted involved lawyers. It seemed nobler to represent clients, instead of insurance companies and I thought I could best represent those clients as an attorney.. I was accepted by, and Graduated from Western State University School of Law at San Diego in 1980. Passing the State Bar of California in 1981, I worked for myself until 1985, when I decided to move back to my roots in Texas.. My time in California opened my eyes to different people and different cultures. People in Texas and California are more alike than they are different. Both states are filled with mostly good people.. In 1985, I started working for a small law firm in Del Rio, Texas. While there, I learned the ins and outs of running a general law practice with an emphasis on personal injury. In 1988, I got married to Vanessa, moved to the DFW Metroplex, and started a job with the old Hyatt Legal Services. Soon after, we had, Jack, our first of our two children.. At Hyatt, I continued to practice general law, with a heavy emphasis on family law. In 1990, I purchased my office from Mr. Hyatt, and I became self-employed again. I have been operating as a self-employed attorney ever since.. I have handled thousands of cases over the years. My staff and I strive to provide the best, and most efficient service available. We feel that our practice of law is our calling from God, and that we must be as good in this practice as we humanly can be.. If you want competent, experienced legal representation, please come by one of our two offices serving Dallas and Tarrant Counties. We will make you feel welcome, and it would be an honor to have you come in, meet us, and allow us to handle your legal issue
