Legal issues and litigation, whether threatened or actual, are a constant reality of modern business. All businesses should be able to turn to an attorney for advice. Although huge corporations have the resources to handle these problems with large legal staffs, small and medium size businesses oftentimes face a predicament.

Business litigation issues can range from a party's failure to perform pursuant to a contract, collections/payment issues, employment issues, patent, trademark, or copyright infringement, theft or protection of trade secrets or confidential information, and violations of non-compete agreements, just to name a few potential problems.

The cost of protecting one's business up-front may outweigh the perceived financial benefit; however, the long term impact on a business of failing to take steps to protect itself may be catastrophic. At The Powell Law Firm we are familiar with this quandary and the need of small and medium sized business clients to secure competent legal representation. Because of this problem, we devote a significant portion of our litigation practice to representing small and medium sized businesses as well as individuals.

The Powell Law Firm can serve in effect as an in-house general counsel for your business, representing it in all aspects of its corporate life. Having the firm handle all your business's legal issues allows us to build a greater knowledge of your business' specific needs, which creates a more productive, cost-effective, and fruitful business. Obtaining a cost-effective solution to your business' legal problem is a priority.

With The Powell Law Firm representing your business, you can rest assured that you have an attorney when you need one but without paying the "in-house" salary and benefits. Instead, you can retain the firm to handle most of your small business legal needs on a monthly retainer, or an hourly or flat fee basis, depending on the project. Also, you can even hire The Powell Law Firm to handle collections of your past due accounts, depending on the situation, on either a contingency fee or hourly fee basis.

The Powell Law Firm is a civil law firm serving our individual and business clients primarily in The Greater Houston Metropolitan Area, Harris and surrounding counties, but also throughout the State of Texas.

From its inception, litigation has been a cornerstone of The Powell Law Firm. We understand and have experienced all aspects of trial advocacy, and are deeply committed to setting a standard of excellence.
