From birth, Galveston County has been my home, except during college and law school. Over the years, I have been fortunate to represent old friends, colleagues and neighbors as well as newly arrived citizens of and visitors to this historic and charming corner of Texas. I have experienced the explosive growth of the greater Houston metropolis personally and professionally, and I have enjoyed the trust reposed in me by many clients in a multitude of various cases. After thirty years in practice I have reason to believe that I am a better and more energetic advocate than ever, and I look forward to many more cases to come.
