About John McFarland

I am a seasoned, tough, and smart trial lawyer. I help my clients in important business-to-business litigation on either side of the docket. The cases I handle typically involve claims for breach of contract, fraud, alter ego, fraudulent transfer, or breach of fiduciary duty, and often address real estate or financial instruments. I have tried many cases in both state and federal court. And I have successfully briefed and argued many appeals to the Texas state appellate courts and to the Fifth Circuit. We work with clients on different fee arrangements, including contingency fee matters in appropriate cases. For more on my background, please see the link to our website below Specialties: Litigation, Trial, and Appeals in the context of business/commercial litigation.
