From Finance to Family Law: Greg’s Unique Perspective
A True Dallas & Texas Native
Born in Dallas and raised across Texas, Greg understands the values and challenges that shape families in this region.
Greg graduated from Richardson High School and went on to earn a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance from Baylor University.
Law School & Legal Training
After time in commercial banking, Greg returned to Baylor for law school. He graduated third in his class Cum Laude, earned multiple merit-based scholarships and national performance awards.
Greg also served on the Baylor Law Review and was recognized as a “Top 10 Speaker” in the school’s nationally acclaimed advocacy program.
Complex Litigation Experience
Greg began his legal career representing large companies in complex commercial litigation, leveraging his business and finance background.
But in 2006, he made a deliberate decision to resign from his partnership in Dallas and launch his own firm in McKinney so he could focus on family law–and spend more time with his own growing family.
