  2. Consultation by appointment A confidential consultation is scheduled with the attorney. Submitting the intake form does not create an attorney-client relationship.
  3. A team built around the case The firm's attorneys, paralegals and financial professionals, including an in-house forensic specialist, work the matter together.

In Greg's words

Situations Greg handles every week

A divorce where a business is the biggest asset

Valuing a company, tracing what is separate and what is community, and dividing it without destroying it is a financial problem as much as a legal one. Greg's accounting and finance background, including an MBA in finance, lets him work directly through the numbers rather than relying entirely on outside experts.

Separate property, trusts and reimbursement claims that need to be proven

Inheritances, premarital assets and trust interests have to be traced and documented to be protected. Greg has litigated cases involving separate property trusts and reimbursement claims and has presented to other lawyers on business entities in divorce.

A custody dispute that has turned hostile

High-conflict custody cases call for both courtroom skill and a steady strategy. Greg is a member of the Order of the Barristers, which recognizes oral advocacy, and his published work includes a 2019 paper on the professionals who become involved in custody cases.

An existing order that is being ignored or no longer fits

Enforcement and modification of child support, custody, property division and spousal support orders are a core part of Greg's practice. He has written on the complications of trying modification cases.

Parents or assets in more than one state or country

Multijurisdictional family law, including the UCCJEA, UIFSA and Hague Convention child abduction matters, is listed in Greg's practice, and he has presented on making those statutes understandable.

Wanting to settle without a public fight

Greg is a former president of Collaborative Law Dallas and a certified mediator. He looks for practical, out-of-court resolutions when they serve the client and litigates when they do not.
