Elements of Fraud Claims: Successful fraud cases require proving false representations of material fact, knowledge of falsity or reckless disregard for truth, intent to deceive, justifiable reliance, and resulting damages. We excel at developing evidence for each element through comprehensive investigation and expert analysis.

Fraudulent Inducement: When fraud induces contract formation or business relationships, we pursue both fraud damages and contract remedies. These cases often involve complex issues of reliance, materiality, and the intersection of fraud and contract law.

Investment Fraud: Investment fraud cases involve specialized knowledge of financial markets and investment practices. We handle cases involving broker misconduct, Ponzi schemes, unsuitable investments, and violations of fiduciary duties to investors.

Business Fraud: Commercial fraud can take many forms including false financial statements, concealed liabilities, misrepresented business conditions, and fraudulent business valuations. We work with forensic accountants and business valuation experts to uncover and prove business fraud.

Real Estate Fraud: Property transactions are frequent targets for fraud including concealed defects, title fraud, mortgage fraud, and misrepresentation of property conditions or value. Our real estate litigation experience provides valuable insight in these cases.

Punitive Damages: Texas law allows punitive damages in fraud cases when conduct involves malice or gross negligence. We pursue punitive damages to attempt to punish wrongdoers and deter similar conduct.

Complex Financial Analysis: Fraud cases frequently require a sophisticated financial analysis to quantify losses and trace asset flows. We work with forensic accountants, financial experts, and damage specialists to develop compelling evidence of losses and recovered amounts.

Multi-Defendant Cases: Fraud schemes often involve multiple participants including primary wrongdoers, professional enablers, and corporate entities. Our experience in complex litigation allows us to effectively pursue all responsible parties and maximize recovery.

Emergency Relief: When fraud threatens ongoing harm or asset dissipation, we seek temporary restraining orders, temporary injunctions, and asset freezes to protect our clients’ interests and preserve recovery opportunities.

Our comprehensive approach to fraud litigation combines legal expertise with investigative capabilities and financial analysis skills, ensuring that fraudulent conduct is exposed and our clients receive maximum compensation for their losses.
