Practice Areas and Experience
Leland has been a trial lawyer for more than ten years. In that time, he has
represented both plaintiffs and defendants in a vast array of complex civil
matters. Complex litigation requires a lawyer with experience handling large
cases. United States Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren E. Burger said, “The
courtrooms of America all too often have Piper Cub advocates trying to handle
the controls of Boeing 747 litigation.” Leland's experience and diversity in the
types of cases he handles provide his clients with a skilled, competent and
dedicated litigator managing their case.
His diverse experience includes handling cases stemming from environmental
contamination and exposure to complex commercial disputes. His broad and
thorough background in litigation also includes cases involving wrongful death,
catastrophic injuries, civil rights violations, and insurance disputes.
He regularly represents clients in employment, product liability, personal injury
and medical malpractice actions. His clients include individuals, families,
property owners as well as corporations.
Specific examples of his extensive legal experience include:
• Obtaining critical evidence necessary to secure a large settlement in a
multi-plaintiff civil rights suit
• Securing several significant trial verdicts and settlements for individuals
and families injured by medical negligence
• Successfully prosecuting a multi-plaintiff environmental contamination
claim on behalf of homeowners and property owners
• Successfully defending a manufacturing company in a breach of contract
case
• Defeating federal preemption and obtaining a significant settlement for an
injured worker
Family Life and Public Service
Leland is dedicated husband and proud father of four. In addition to his
dedication to his family and his firm, he finds time to continually give back
to his community, and in doing so, helps to ensure that the image of "lawyers" is
enhanced in the public.
He has served for several years on the board of his local Little League and has
spent hours, days and weekends ensuring that children from our area as well
as from around Texas have a safe, enjoyable environment to play baseball. He
constantly volunteers at his children's school. He also ensures that the firm
continue to support the arts in the community including Ballet Forte and the Fort
