Hagan & Associates, PLLC

Introduction: I studied law at the Vanderbilt University School of Law and have practiced law in Texas for over 28 years. I specialize in helping businesses and individuals with a broad variety of primarily commercial issues faced by them on a day-to-day basis, including the following: - Negotiating and drafting contracts to help protect their assets and future revenue streams - Structuring and preparing corporate governance documents to ensure effective operations and seamless management/ownership succession - Developing compliance programs to make sure that company operations are conducted within the bounds of the relevant laws regulating their businesses - When necessary, negotiating the settlement of disputes with customers and suppliers who make economic sense and avoid the cost and uncertainty of judicial resolution - Advising on human resource issues to help maintain an effective, happy workforce - Conducting workforce training on legal issues impacting their businesses - Teaching effective written business communication to ensure that all correspondence and email strengthens the business' position and none comes back to haunt it as a "smoking gun" I also provide DWI defense. These are only sample areas in which you can benefit from my representation. My experience is broad and varied. I have helped individuals, mid-sized companies and even Fortune 100 companies not only in the United States, but also in over 15 foreign countries. In addition to the aforementioned commercial matters, I am well versed in estate planning and can help individuals plan for the efficient and effective future distribution of their assets in accordance with their wishes. I recently moved to Lakeway to be closer to family, and I am proud to bring my sophisticated and diverse experience to serve the needs of the Austin business community. I offer all potential clients one free telephonic consultation to help us mutually determine if my knowledge and skills will be able to help you achieve your legal/commercial goals. I will represent you on either an hourly or flat-fee basis depending on the nature of the project and work required. Feel free to call me to more fully discern how we might best work together.
