I serve Austin businesses and investors in resolving thorny disputes, protecting Intellectual Property, Patent Law, Estate Planning and Probate legal matters. I help clients with thoughtful estate planning that protects children and vulnerable family members, preserves assets, and creates Texas family legacies. I provide perspective and legal advice wrought by experience, and bring peace of mind for clients.
