ABOUT US

Ensley Benitez Law, PC represents businesses and individuals all throughout Texas, in State and federal courts, and at mediation and arbitration, in a broad range of litigation matters, in which we emphasize protecting construction and remediation contractors in complex litigation, often working toward getting our clients paid for the work they performed, while at the same time, defending them from allegations of construction defect, breach of contract, and all the other claims which are commonly brought in such matters. We also represent clients in matters related to payment of property-related damage claims.

Our attorneys have also successfully represented clients in a broad range of cases including:

  • Obtained Final Judgment in favor of a Texas contractor in a FLSA suit, zeroing out the claim, and obtaining one of the largest reductions of attorney’s fees awarded in the Northern District of Texas
  • Negotiated an extremely aggressive settlement against a major national insurance company related to the personal home of a construction contractor client
  • Obtaining Final Judgment in favor of a roof salesman who had been wrongfully denied commission payments
  • Obtaining Final Judgment in a successful defense of an accounting firm and its principal in a “bet the business” case
  • Obtaining Final Judgments and Final Arbitration Awards ensuring payment to a large number of businesses of varying types
  • Successfully representing landowners / landlords in municipal hearings on matters including condemnation, fines, breaches of the lease, eviction and collection of past-due amounts;
  • Negotiated a great pre-trial outcome for a client who was victimized by cyber fraud
About

But because any business is at risk of having claims made against it before government agencies, our advocacy for our clients continues past the courtroom. We have a great deal of experience assisting clients obtain positive results against claims which are heard before government agencies, whether those claims come from “inside” (current or former employees, independent contractors), or from “outside” (competing businesses reporting on you, or from claims made directly by the government agencies). For more than 10 years, we have been obtaining positive results representing our clients in claims heard before OSHA, the Wage and Hour Division (Fair Labor Standards Acts claims), other entities housed in the federal Department of Labor, the EEOC, all their Texas counterparts, along with the Texas Department of Insurance, and the Texas Comptroller.

On the transactional side, we perform contract reviews, draft new contracts, file mechanic’s liens, manage the insurance appraisal process, create and modify inward-facing documents (such as Employee Manuals and best practices guides), and are available for virtual or in-person consults and/or lunch-and-learn or other training.
