When Someone You Trusted
Robs You Blind
A stolen inheritance. A partner bleeding the business dry. A trustee, executor, or advisor who figured nobody would fight back. They figured wrong. I'm a Houston trial lawyer, and this is what I do.

You already know
something's wrong.
The numbers don't add up. The 'helpful' relative suddenly runs everything.
The partner who built it with you is quietly walking off with it.
The advisor you trusted went dark.
Here's the truth nobody tells you: the people doing this are betting you'll roll over. That you won't have the stomach, the money, or the lawyer to make it a real fight.
That's the bet I make them lose.
The Fights I Take
Inheritance & Estate Disputes
Will contests, executors and trustees who breach their duties, elderly family members getting financially exploited, power-of-attorney and guardianship abuse.
Business & Partnership Disputes
Partners stealing from the company, fraud, ownership fights, and business breakups that turned ugly.
Real Estate & Property Disputes
Ownership and boundary battles, and fraud baked into property deals.
Other Fights I Take
The cases above are where I live, but betrayal over money and property doesn't always fit in a neat box. If someone in a position of trust took advantage of you - a professional who breached their duty, a deal built on lies, a contract someone never intended to honor, a person who used their power or access to line their own pockets - that's my kind of case.
When in doubt, ask. If it's about money, property, or someone abusing your trust, it's worth a conversation.
Built for the Fight
Straight talk. A real plan. And a lawyer who's in the trench with you, not phoning it in.
