I first retained David to represent me in a civil case. I was extremely
pleased with the attention he gave me during the litigation. He always
found the time to speak to me when I called and promptly returned my
calls if he was unavailable when I called. I was very satisfied with the
settlement we reached and I have continued to seek his legal advice in
other matters as well.

Civil & Commercial Law
Civil Law and Commercial Law pertain to the bodies of law covering a
broad scope of legal matters involving individuals and businesses. While
commercial law encompasses a wide scope of
business entity relationships, civil law concerns
the relationship between individuals or individuals and businesses.
At the Law
Offices of David E. Kelley, we represent clients in the Dallas-Fort
Worth metroplex and across Texas in a diverse range of civil and
commercial law matters.
Civil Law
Civil law relates to contracts and suits that do not involve criminal
charges. A civil action is generally brought by a person who has been
injured or otherwise suffered loss as the result of a wrong, which only
directly affected him, such as negligence or breach of employment
contract.
While civil litigation is undertaken to reclaim money, property or
services owed, civil action may also involve cases of:
- Fraud
- Breach of Non-disclosure Agreements
- Violations of Fair Trade Practices
- Breach of Fiduciary Duty
- Contractor/Builder Controversies
- Buy-Sell Agreements
- Deferred Compensation Agreements
