Attorney Referrals
Mr. Garcia is often referred cases in which he works with other lawyers or law firms in representing clients. In addition, Mr. Garcia does work on a contract basis or an “of counsel” basis.
If you are an attorney with a client that agrees, Mr. Garcia would very much welcome the opportunity to visit to see how our offices can collectively and collaboratively assist a particular client.
Consistent with Rule 1.04 of the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct, Mr. Garcia is generally receptive to either: (a) dividing or proportioning the legal services to be rendered or (b) assuming joint responsibility for the representation of a particular client matter – provided of course, that the client consents in writing to the terms of the arrangement prior to the association or the referral proposed.
