4 years ago today I officially opened my own law firm.

I spent that day moving my daughter into her apartment for her second year of college.

Today I’m helping her move in to an apartment where she is starting on a master’s degree.

Seems fitting!

Texas should take the pro-business position and get rid of employee non-competes, which effectively impose a hiring tax on businesses.

I explain at my blog post.

It is rare that a civil lawsuit goes to trial.

It is even more rare for a non-compete lawsuit to go to trial.

But it can happen.

And when it does, you'll need to know how to submit the case to the jury.
