I grew up in Beaumont, Texas. I attended Baylor University for college and the The University of Texas School of Law for law school. I gained extensive experience in many areas of transactional law through my former position as corporate counsel at National Western Life Insurance Company and my current position as an Associate at Nance & Simpson, LLP.

As a former corporate attorney at one of the world's premier global law firms and former in-house counsel at Texas Instruments, a Fortune 500 technology leader, I bring big-firm expertise and corporate-level sophistication to entrepreneurs, startups, and small business owners who deserve the same quality legal support as the largest companies in the world. As a lawyer and startup founder with products currently being sold in national retail chains, I've spent my career at the intersection of complex business transactions, corporate law, and policy. I know how deals get done, where contracts go wrong, and how to protect businesses before problems arise. Now, I put that experience to work for founders and business owners who need practical, straightforward legal guidance without the intimidating price tag of a major law firm. Whether you're signing your first vendor contract, structuring a partnership, protecting your intellectual property, or navigating a business dispute, I translate the law into plain language so you can make confident decisions and focus on growing your business. What I bring to the table: - Complex commercial transactions experience at an AmLaw 100 firm - 7+ years as in-house counsel at a Fortune 500 company - Deep understanding of how businesses actually operate day-to-day - Flat-fee, transparent pricing with no billing surprises - Fast turnaround and direct communication If you're building something, I want to help you protect it.

I am semi-retired, and I have over 30 years of legal practice. I can assist you with business formation, business acquisition, contract creation, contract review, and modification, estate plan, will, trust, probate, and general legal advice concerning many areas of law.

I specialize in commercial and technology agreements, and general corporate and real estate matters. My passion for transactional and corporate work grew out of helping small and medium sized businesses with agreements of all types and real estate matters. Though I primarily represent large private and publicly traded Fortune 500 companies, I very much enjoy representing new and emerging businesses. From the private family office or new start-up to the rapidly growing and mature company, I have a proven track record of exceeding expectations in helping clients achieve their vision.

I’m a Texas-based business attorney focused on helping companies—from early-stage startups to established enterprises—navigate their legal needs with clarity and confidence. My practice centers on contracts, corporate governance, and international business matters. Whether you're forming a new company, reviewing a commercial agreement, or expanding into new markets, I bring practical, business-minded legal guidance tailored to your goals. Clients appreciate that I don’t just “paper” deals—I help them understand what they’re signing and protect their long-term interests. I believe in clear communication, fair flat fees, and efficient turnarounds, especially when time is money. In addition to domestic clients, I work with a range of foreign individuals and companies doing business in the U.S., and regularly assist with cross-border transactions, regulatory issues, and contract negotiation. If you’re looking for an attorney who values relationships, communicates clearly, and knows how to get deals done—I’d be glad to connect.
