WHAT WE DOPractice Areas

Civil Litigation
Zealous advocacy

While we all wish disputes could be settled fairly without the intervention of attorneys, all too often we are forced to rely on the court system to achieve a just result. At Branum PLLC, our goal is to listen to our clients and craft a cost-conscious litigation plan that meets each client’s individual needs. Our attorneys have substantial pre-trial and trial experience, and we ensure that our caseload is small enough to allow us to fiercely advocate for every client we accept.

Contingency Fee Litigation
Standing up for you

Branum PLLC takes select contingency fee cases in the following areas of the law:  auto/truck wrecks, bad-faith insurance, certain real estate and probate disputes, property damage cases, including cases involving negligent aerial overspray of chemical pesticides, employment law matters, and others.  These cases are generally handled on a contingency-fee basis, meaning that we only get paid if or when we collect money for you.

Branum PLLC has significant experience handling contingency fee matters, and we would be happy to speak to you about your potential case.

Property & Real Estate
Simplifying the complex and getting it done

Our broad knowledge of real estate-specific issues makes us uniquely suited to assist our clients in resolving complicated property matters.

We handle very basic property transfers and document preparation up to complex due diligence on large projects and real estate related lawsuits.

Business Start-Ups
Empowering your business

Our attorneys have owned small businesses, and we love getting new businesses off the ground. Whether you need help deciding what type of entity to form, assistance filing and drafting your formation and entity documents, or guidance in developing a business plan, we are a trusted source of information and ingenuity.

Business Transactions
Helping your company succeed

The Benjamin Franklin axiom that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” is as true today as it was when Franklin made the quote and it sums up the importance of insuring your contractual agreements are legal and enforceable before entering into any business deal.

We have assisted businesses large and small and in many different industries in conducting business transactions.  Services we provide include drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts, conducting basic due diligence, negotiating business agreements, winding down entities, restructuring, negotiating internal disputes, and others.

Probate
Probate Law & Related Estate Issues

After a loved one’s death, the last thing any family wants to concern themselves with is dealing with estate issues. Our firm has helped hundreds of Texas families navigate the various steps which need to be taken to ensure what someone worked to earn and save gets to the right people — without burning money on unnecessary court costs, delay, or process that doesn’t fit the situation.

Whether there is a will or there is not, our philosophy is to do the most efficient thing. Some estates need a full administration. Others can take a simpler path. We look at the will (if there is one), what’s in the estate, who the family is, and what the court actually requires, then recommend the cleanest route rather than the most paperwork.

We handle standard probate, contested probate, applications to determine heirship, applications for heirship, and many other types of estate work for families across Texas. Call the office and we can talk through where things stand and what makes sense next.
