Business Attorneys in Dallas, TX — Peters Kussmaul Crosier

Peters Kussmaul Crosier advises Dallas companies and their owners from formation through exit: starting and funding new ventures, drafting and negotiating contracts, buying and selling businesses, and litigating commercial disputes.

Health care and life sciences in Dallas grow out of UT Southwestern Medical Center and the Southwestern Medical District, professional and financial firms fill office towers downtown and in Uptown, and the International Inland Port of Dallas, which takes in part of southern Dallas, anchors warehousing and freight. Technology companies round out the mix. That brings practice structures, partner agreements, freight and warehouse contracts, software customer terms, and company sales across all of them.

How We Help Dallas Businesses

Business Disputes in Dallas

Most business lawsuits involving Dallas companies are filed in the Dallas County district courts downtown, while the parts of the city in Collin and Denton counties fall under the district courts in McKinney and Denton. In federal court, most of Dallas is in the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division; the Collin and Denton County areas belong to the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division. A good share of cases settle through negotiation or mediation once both sides have seen the key documents.

Ask a Question

We're starting a Dallas medical group with outside investors. How is that usually structured?

Texas generally requires physicians to own a medical practice, so investors usually own a separate management company that serves the practice under a management services agreement. That agreement's fees and control terms need careful drafting to stay within Texas rules. See Texas PLLC formation.

The landlord for our Dallas warehouse sent a notice of default. What should we do first?

Read the lease's notice and cure terms right away, because the time to fix a default usually runs from the notice date. Then gather rent records and answer in writing; many of these disputes are resolved before suit. See commercial lease disputes.

Two Dallas professional firms want to merge. What should the deal settle first?

Who owns the combined firm and in what shares, how each side's debts and partner capital come over, and whose name continues. Plan for conflict checks and client notices in licensed professions, and agree how the firms would separate if the merger fails. See professional services.
