What does a breach of contract attorney do?
We help clients resolve issues when someone fails to uphold their end of a contract—whether that’s a vendor, customer, or business partner. This can include demand letters, negotiations, or filing suit. We’ll evaluate the terms of your agreement, assess damages, and guide you through the resolution process.
What’s the difference between commercial litigation and civil litigation?
Civil litigation is a broad category that includes any legal dispute between individuals or entities. Commercial litigation is a subset of civil litigation focused on business-related disputes. At our firm, we handle both types with a focus on clarity and client-centered solutions.
What if I’m being accused of breaching a fiduciary duty?
If you’re a trustee, executor, or power of attorney and someone believes you’ve acted improperly, we can help you respond. We defend fiduciaries in trust litigation and can assist with accountings, communications, and compliance with your legal responsibilities.
Do you take cases from outside Texas?
Yes. Sandra Lefler is licensed in Texas, California, and Oklahoma. We work with clients throughout all three states—especially in Georgetown, Palm Springs, and surrounding areas.
What if I just want the dispute to go away?
You’re not alone. Many clients want resolution—not a lengthy court battle. We explore all options, including negotiation, mediation, or settlement, and only proceed to litigation when it’s truly necessary. Our goal is to protect your interests and preserve your peace of mind.
