srhaley@cordellhaley.com We offer a full complement of legal services in the areas of the law listed below. Please review this information and contact us with any questions or concerns. Employment Discrimination - Employment law covers a complex network of laws that control how employers must treat employees, former employees, and applicants for employment. Our Employment Discrimination Practice has given us significant experience in interpreting and construing state and Federal statutes and case law in areas such as employment discrimination, affirmative action, sexual harassment, employee benefits, whistleblower litigation, wrongful discharge, employment contracts, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Family Medical Leave Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Federal Employer's Liability Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, and special laws governing municipal employment. Business Organizations and Solutions - The form of business chosen for a business entity potentially affects every aspect of its operations. Our firm assists business clients in formation and business planning in deciding whether they want to operate as a closely held business, limited liability company, partnership, or corporation. We advise our clients about directors' and officers' liability, dissolution, franchising, reorganization, trade association membership and activity, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, business successions, and shareholders' rights. We also handle collections, prepare forms, examine Human Resources policies, and draft contracts. Consumer Rights - Deceptive sales practices are becoming increasingly common in today's business world. Consumers deserve to know their rights and should retain an attorney when they have been deceived by a business entity. There are laws providing protection against such harmful business practices, such as the TDTPA or Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act. We assist clients in putting on a credit defense, under the Fair Debt Collection Act. We work hard to enforce purchasers' rights. If you are having lemon law issues, credit disputes, or defective products claims, we can help. Estate Planning - Our firm handles a variety of estate planning matters, including planning for the distribution of an individual's property at his or her death and taking into account wills, taxes, insurance, property, and trusts so as to gain the maximum benefit of all laws, while, at the same time, carrying out the person's wishes. We have helped many clients with wills, guardianships, trusts, and healthcare powers of attorney. Contact us when you have decided you need competent legal representation from qualified Texas attorneys.
