EXPERIENCE
Ken has more than 20 years
of litigation experience across the State of Texas. He has
tried a large number of cases before juries, judges and arbitration
panels on a wide variety of business disputes (e.g., breach
of contract, covenants not to compete, business dissolutions,
real estate, banking, business torts, legal malpractice, employment
discharge, insurance, and deceptive trade practices), as well
as personal injury cases involving claims for premises and
products liability, and general negligence. He also has handled
and argued dozens of grievance claims for the firm's lawyer-clients.
In addition to his Texas license, Ken is admitted to practice
in all federal district courts in Texas, as well as the United
States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and the United
States Supreme Court. Ken also has handled and argued appeals
successfully in both state and federal court. In fact, several
years ago, he was one of the lawyers primarily involved in
a successful appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, which reversed
a Fifth Circuit ruling.
Ken is one of the lawyers
at the firm who specializes in handling select commercial
cases on a contingency fee basis, and has tried and settled
cases involving millions of dollars of recoveries for clients.
Ken has been recognized as a "Texas Super Lawyer"
in the Texas Monthly publication, and also has been honored
as one of "Houston's Top Lawyers" by H Magazine.
