PUBLIC SECTOR

Public Sector

By partnering with the private sector through arrangements which leverage governmental assets and resources, opportunities abound for the private sector to participate in the development, financing, ownership and operation of a public facility or service.


Our experience includes defense of numerous governmental entities, municipalities, transits authorities, school districts, law enforcement agencies, counties, and various other public entities and officials – including a past mayor of Harlingen. Although the firm is based in Houston, we have done a tremendous amount of litigation work in the Rio Grande Valley and we are vastly familiar with the court system in that area. In fact, we were involved in successfully representing a school district in a multi-plaintiff/intervenor reduction of force case involving Ed Couch – Elsa Independent School District.
