Case Highlights

Breaking a Deadlock: When the majority shareholder in a manufacturing company found the board of directors deadlocked with the company’s future at stake, Neal stepped in and forced the issue. That resulted in a receiver being appointed, thus saving all outstanding contracts, including a very large deal that was about to be cancelled by a customer.

Saving Investors’ Hard-Earned Cash: When a local businessman and his companies defrauded investors, Neal obtained a multi-million dollar judgment on the investors’ behalf. Then he found a creative way to work with the judgment debtors to come to a settlement.

Get To Know Neal In His Own Words

“I advise my clients in layman’s terms so they understand the issues they’re facing and their options. This saves them time and allows them to focus on their business.”

“I like being able to help people and their businesses. When you help someone move to the next level with their business, or assist them successfully in litigation or through settlement, there’s a continuing job satisfaction that keeps you trying to assist your clients as best you can.”
