Waldron & Schneider has assisted Australian, European, African, Indian, and Latin American companies in expanding their business operations in the United States. Due to Houston’s central location, business climate, and shipping facilities, clients have used local operations to expand into other portions of the United States, as well as Canada and Latin America.

Competent legal representation in the modern global economy demands that counselors at law assist clients in recognizing potential pitfalls while in the initial stages of contract review or due diligence, as well as dealing with the multitude of issues that arise as a result of entities engaging in commerce. Based on this belief, each of our lawyers, while maintaining particular areas of expertise, have experience with Federal and state litigation, as well as contract drafting and review. By maintaining this skill, our clients can be confident that the firm will provide insightful advice and a quality work product with knowledge and experience in dealing with problems that may arise from commercial transactions.
