Recently I reached out to Daniel for advice on a legal matter. We spoke less than 5 mins but he was able to locate a record number that I couldn’t previously locate ANYWHERE. He gave me clear instructions to follow, which I did, and it led to the results I needed the same day! I never obtained him as my legal counsel officially and his help took me further than I’d gotten in 8 months of trying alone. FREE OF CHARGE. When I called him I was ready to spend however much necessary to handle my situation, but he saved me God knows how much money. If I ever need an attorney in the future I’ll be sure to turn to them again. Highly recommend!!!

My daughter and her husband just signed for this law office to take their case. So far its not going well. Enterprise called to tell my daughter to bring in the rental by 5 p.m but they have not provided her with any money to purchase a new car after stating her car was totaled. How the heck do they expect her to go back and forth to work? Not to mention, she was hit from the back at no fault of her on. I feel with an Attorney, they should take care of this for my daughter and she should not have stress about this.
I will send an update soon but so far, customer service is not looking good. This should never be an issue when both parties have full coverage insurance. I will update the stars to 5 if they handle business for my babies. Will update soon.
Update- 8.25.24 They did finally pay off my daughters car. My daughter had to continually call the office ,all in all I will upgrade them to a 4 star but they need to reach out to the clients more often and communicate better.

Daniel is amazing at what he does. Used him for my case with child custody and he is very knowledgeable and sets realistic expectations. He was there to answer all of my questions and guide me along what can be a painful process. Knowing that I had Daniel on my side made this process so much easier. Anytime I was unsure, Daniel was sure to lay out the options and allowed me to make decisions on what I wanted to do. I will continue to use him on this case as needed and for any legal needs moving forward. He is truly someone who will go to bat for you and cares for his clients.
The staff there is so polite as well when I do need to call.

My husband and I own a small business and we hired Scott to assist us with a sales tax audit. Audits in general are intimidating and dreadful, but Scott made the entire experience seem effortless and less stressful. From start to finish, Scott was very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. He was very organized and thorough. Scott was easy to communicate with and made sure we were engaged and apprised of the details concerning the audit process. We highly recommend his service.

Mr. Thomas met with me on extremely short notice and provided me with the legal counsel that I desperately needed. I was approaching the end of a contract that I believed to be shady, (it demanded a high contract-breaking fee), and I wanted to know if it was legal to hold me to the amount given my current situation. Mr. Thomas walked me through three different avenues of contract termination without providing a bias towards any. When I sought his personal opinion, the choice ended up being the one that was in my best interest. I highly recommend Mr. Jacob Thomas; he is a gentleman and a scholar and I will definitely rely on his services in the future.

I have worked with Mark Walsh on several cases in the past. The most recent was a multi-party construction contact, in which we were sued by the General Contractor and then we countersued. Eventually, the suit included numerous parties, (Consulting Engineer, General Contractor, several Sub-Contractors and Material Suppliers). In working with Mark in the past, it was easy to recognize his capabilites regarding law, however, i had not, before this case, spent time with him in a mediation. During this multi-party suit, i saw abilities in Mark that i had not seen before. During the mediation, he showed proficiency in presenting technical issues (I am a Civil Engineer, and this case involved technical Civil Engineering issues), but more importantly, he was direct, strong, though fair, and unbending with the mediator when he needed to be. At the conclusion of the mediation, i felt we received an award in an amount well in excess of the amount i anticipated, and felt that was due to the approach that Mark took throughout the mediation. There is law, and then there is the application of law in the various settings (court, mediation, arbitration, etc), the ability to stress the critical points at the appropriate time, and the ability to negotiate, and the knowledge and experience when not to negotiate down from your position. As i said, i felt i had seen Mark's capabilities in the field of law before this case, however, as a result of this case, i saw a broader view of his capabilities in this field, and feel even more comfortable because of that going forward.

Being a tier-one contractor requires a top attorney who completely understands the financial environment of the day. Given the opportunity, Mark has always provided sound advice, and continually protects the financial interest of our company from those customer/clients that are reluctant to pay on time or pay at all. Mark consistently protects our lien/bond rights and ensures that all notices and/or filings are accurate and timely. In many cases there are hundreds of thousands of dollars at stake, and at the same time on the small items just as much expertise and passion is provided. The one unmistakable attribute that will be discovered within a very short period of time is Mark will never spend your money in a frivolous matter, and his counsel always has an efficient and economical means to the end.

Mark handled a complex legal dispute I had with a contractor. The result was he negotiated a settlement that included post-judgment collection costs. As with many legal issues, there are several strategies to consider. Mark made sure I understood all possible outcomes and would provide several different ways to tackle each step. He spent my retainer wisely, and I definitely got my money's worth. In addition, he has a competent, detail-oriented staff who cares about a client's case. Every call or email was returned promptly throughout the entire process. Mark has business expertise, too, so I hired him to form a second business I started in 2012. If I ever have any kind of legal issue, Mark is the first person I will call. I trust his advice, and definitely would hire him again.

I was looking for an attorney and overheard someone mention his name. I asked for references and found out very quickly that Barnett wins, and he wins a lot. He met with me and my mother and explained the entire process to us. He told us he could not guarantee how the case would turn out but that he could promise that he would treat my case the way he would want me to treat his case if our roles were reversed. We hired him and we won.
Thank you Barnett.

I have no experience with Barnett outside what I witnessed during my fathers trial in which he was accused of very haineous allegations. While watching Barnett in the court room, I knew without a shadow of a doubt that he was dedicated to justice and would stop at nothing to see it served. His presence in the court room is very strong and he conducts himself with the utmost respect for the courts. On a personal level, Barnett has a great sense of humor and has a way of making his clients and their family feel confident and comfortable through such an emotionally draining time. I would recommend Barnett Walker with unequivolcal certainty for anyone seeking solid defense representation.

Recently I was incredibly fortunate to have Barnett defend me against wrongfull allegations. His knowledge of the law is surpassed only by his commitment to see justice served. I cant imagine any stronger courtroom presence and I would not hesitate to use Barnett again. Rest assured that if Mr. Walker is on your case you have someone who truely cares about the law , people and our society.

It’s my absolute pleasure to recommend Blake Landon and his law firm of Philip & Epperson for legal services.
I hired Mr. Landon after another Attorney with over 27 years’ experience was not getting me results with my legal situation. The end result for me was a WIN to whichI truly believe due to Mr. Landon and his firms’ partners who gave some guidance in my legal situation ending a long and very stressful nightmare.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Mr. Landon and his firm, his legal abilities, skills and professional demeanor came through for me when needed. His staff and Paralegal Deidra Coe was professional and caring in a very stressful time for me. I came to know Mr. Landon as a truly valuable asset to anyone needing Mr. Landon and his firm. He is honest, dependable, and incredibly hard-working. Beyond that, he is an impressive problem solver who was able to address complex issues with strategy and confidence.
He is a person and Attorney who is true team player and someone you want on your side, and always manages to foster positive discussions to bring the best out of the situation.
Without a doubt, I confidently recommend Mr. Landon and his firm for any of your legal issues and situations. I know that he will be beneficial to your legal situation.

We were sued by an individual over a house that we worked on as new construction. Mr Saunders was able to beat them in court the first time with no problem. After the individual dropped the suit in Denton County, he refiled in Dallas County. We went through 22 months of litigation, and again, with the help of Mr. Saunders, we were successful in the outcome. Then they sued us a third time in Dallas County for a personal injury that they tried to tie to the house that had alleged defective plumbing. Mr. Saunders was successful that round, as well.
I have worked with several attorneys in the past, and Mr Saunders is among the best. His professionalism is unsurpassed. He is extremely responsive to the needs of his client, and keeps the client updated throughout the case. Even during busy times when I had to leave a message, my call was returned in a timely manner. I highly recommend him!

If you are looking for an experienced and knowledgeable attorney who can walk you through the process of a setting up a Will or Trust, Medical Power of Attorney, Financial Power of Attorney, and Directives in the event of illness so that a trusted family member or a friend can make decisions for you, look no further than Jake Estes, Attorney at Law, with offices in Frisco and McKinney.
When my husband was ill and unable to travel to Jake’s office, he made arrangements to come to our home and brought the documents with him for signatures. All we needed to do was ask two close friends to serve as witnesses for our signatures. What we like best about Jake is he can explain complicated legal procedures and documents in plain language that we can understand. We can recommend Jake Estes, Attorney, without reservation! -Lyle and Sandi Froese, McKinney, TX

Our practice hired Daniel Jones to help with multiple complex issues involving contracts that were detrimental to our practice. I thought we would lose our business and our home. With his expertise we were able to terminate the contracts and did not lose anything. Daniel is very knowledgeable, efficient, down to earth and was quick to respond to our endless questions. He could have easily charged us significantly more money but advised us of the most cost efficient route. I highly recommend his services.

I had a legal disagreement with another party involving non payment and a contract dispute. I wanted to see if I could resolve the issue on my own but after months of failed attempts it was clear the other party wouldn’t budge. I contacted Dan as it was clear I needed legal help collecting the money. After consulting with Dan and providing my records, he was able to find additional money I was owed. Over the course of a couple weeks Dan made full payment demand on my behalf and corresponded with the other party citing several legal case decisions in my favor. Eventually after some back-and-forth, the other party caved providing the entire full payment to me plus my attorney costs. Luckily, I was unable to resolve the matter on my own and hired Dan. Otherwise, I would’ve received much less than I was owed.

If you find yourself in a high conflict divorce or aggressive custody battle, Mary Neal is THE attorney you need. She gives you the most logical advice that works the best for you and your circumstances. She’s not going to give you false hope, build you up with the things you want to hear (your emotions will need to be handled appropriately), only for you to be met with disappointment. She tells you realistic outcomes to different scenarios you might face, while strategizing a plan that is in YOUR best interest.
I feel confident in Mary’s ability to handle my case with care and consideration. I trust her advice, even if it’s not always something I want to hear, and I’m thankful for the hard work she has put towards my high conflict cases. I have been at peace with every outcome and will continue to use Mary whenever she is needed. There is no other attorney I trust more to give me reasonable counsel through some very difficult situations.

What a Business Lawyer Can Do for You
A business lawyer provides critical legal guidance and support to entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses. Whether you are forming a new company, drafting contracts, or navigating complex regulations, a business attorney ensures you are legally protected and operating within the law. They can also help prevent legal disputes or represent you in negotiations, transactions, or lawsuits that arise during the course of business operations.
Business lawyers have expertise in areas such as business formation, contract law, intellectual property, employment law, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate governance. They ensure that your business is compliant with relevant laws and help mitigate risks that could threaten your company's success.
When Should I Hire a Business Lawyer?
Hiring a business lawyer is essential at various stages of business development, including:
