Roy G. Morris — The Business Attorney Who Also Thinks Like an Accountant
His J.D. from the University of Texas School of Law and Master’s Degree in Taxation from DePaul University led to two federal appointments — leading litigation teams that closed banking and lending institutions, and later developing the in-house litigation section of the FDIC. For Highland Village’s established practices and investment ventures, that depth of financial and legal experience is difficult to find in a boutique-firm setting.

Frequently Asked Questions — Business Law Attorney in Highland Village, TX
A sale can be structured as an asset purchase or a stock/membership interest purchase, each with different tax consequences for buyer and seller.
Q: What is key-person life insurance and how does it relate to a buy-sell agreement?
Key-person life insurance is owned by the business on a key owner, with the business as beneficiary. When coordinated with a buy-sell agreement, the proceeds fund the purchase of a deceased owner’s interest without a forced sale.
Q: When does a Highland Village business need to review and update its legal documents?
Documents should be reviewed whenever there’s a significant ownership change, a key partner or employee change, a material change in business value, or when Texas law changes.
