Everyone has experienced in some form the lack of business ethics displayed by too many of what had been large companies playing fast and loose with finances and causing catastrophic collapse.   Laws have been passed in an attempt to legislate ethical conduct in public companies.   Now more than ever, clients demand the highest ethical standards from their lawyers.   We are committed to the highest ethical standards and expect the same from our opponents.   We work everyday all the time under the Texas Lawyers Creed.   Be believe in it strongly and we supply a copy of it with our engagement letter at the beginning of our representation of a client. To us, the Texas Lawyers Creed is simply an expression of good common sense.   A lawyer who has his or her moral compass pointed in the right direction will automatically be following the creed without having to think about it.
