Biography

David represents clients in complex commercial and civil litigation across a range of industries, with a particular concentration in banking and lender liability matters, consumer credit litigation, creditors' rights, energy litigation, commercial restructuring and workouts, and E&O and D&O defense. David practices in both Texas and Oklahoma state and federal courts, administrative tribunals, and arbitration proceedings.

In addition to his litigation practice, David serves businesses and their executive teams as outside or general counsel, providing practical, real-time advice on corporate governance and organizational structure, management, fiduciary and compliance matters, business contracts, and transactions. His dual focus — courtroom advocacy and boardroom counsel — allows him to offer clients a uniquely integrated perspective on managing legal risk across the life of a business.

David brings more than three decades of experience in and around the legal industry, including nearly two decades of law firm management at small, medium, and large firms. He is a Texas Bar Foundation Fellow and holds an AV Preeminent® rating from Martindale-Hubbell, the highest peer-review designation available, which he has maintained continuously since 2006. He is recognized by both Best Lawyers and Super Lawyers as well. Licensed in both Texas and Oklahoma, David is resident in our Dallas office and also spends time in the firm’s Austin office
