Past Results

Wrongful Death of a Husband

Michael West represented Joy Witt as lead counsel in the wrongful death of her husband, Daniel Witt. After a couple of years of litigation the lawsuit settled for a confidential amount but which sum is sufficient to financially take care of Ms. Witt for the rest of her life.

Breach of Fiduciary Duty

Michael West was lead counsel for the Plaintiff in this legal malpractice lawsuit. It was alleged that the defendants breached their fiduciary duty by actively working against their client's interest, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages. After a lengthy litigation, the case was settled for a confidential amount, but which amount was significant.

Stolen Cheese

Michael West was lead counsel for all of the defendants in this lawsuit, which involved allegations of theft of trade secrets. The defendants began making and selling a similar cheese, marketing to the same people. Castro Cheese Company spent over $600,000 to prosecute this lawsuit in order to monopolize this market.

After a very difficult discovery process, we were able to gather enough information in order to settle this lawsuit and allow the defendants to make cheese.

When you work with us, you don't just work with me... You work with my family.

Our practice is quite literally a family. We have Michael West, our principal attorney and his wife, Laura, who is our business manager and mediation coordinator. In addition, there is Michael’s father, David West, who served as a judge in Harris county from 1984 to 1997. We have quite a bit of experience among us and it’s all in the family.

Because we are a family of the law, that’s how we treat you when you come to us. We understand that personal injury cases are stressful and in addition to your finances, you’re worried about your physical recovery.

But estate planning can be just as stressful. No one likes thinking about the end of their life, but the reality is that without estate planning, your legacy is left for the courts to decide without you.

Whether you're in Pasadena or in Houston, we’re always here to take the burden off your shoulders. We handle the legal work so you can focus on living your life. When you leave our offices, we want to make sure that you feel better than you did when you came in. We ease your burden through decades of experience doing what we do and thorough explanation of every step in your case.
