Services
For the past 41 years, Dan L. Claiborne has been providing effective and affordable legal services to the people of Dallas and Denton County. The process of planning for the future can be overwhelming. Whether interested in devising a new plan or making changes to an existing plan, seeking legal advice in a timely manner can make the difference between success and failure.
Estate planning is one of the most important steps that you will take in life to ensure that your final wishes for health and property are honored and that your loved ones are provided for following your death. With estate planning, numerous questions are answered and problems resolved. A common misconception is that estate planning is only for wealthy people or people who are nearing retirement or already retired.
While living, it is important to make a will so that loved ones left behind know exactly what your wishes are pertaining to the distribution of real estate, automobiles, jewelry, artwork, insurance policies, stocks and bonds, and other personal property. A will is also used to appoint an executor or representative of the estate, forgive debts, and establish property management for younger beneficiaries.
By definition, a power of attorney (POA) is a document in which you name (appoint) an organization or individual, referred to as the "agent". In that role, the agent would manage your financial, medical, and legal affairs if you were unable to do so. There are different types of POA, each with varying levels of control.
Whether engaging in merchandising, sales, trade, or commerce, laws exist pertaining to your relations, rights, and conduct. Business law, which is also referred to as commercial law, is this body of law. Business law encompasses laws that dictate how a business is formed and operated. Included are governing laws for getting started, buying, managing, closing, and selling virtually any type of business.

Just wanting to share my experiences with dealing
with a good lawyer. Over the years, Mr. Claiborne has

nice thing is if he cannot do something, he will let you
know up front, instead of keeping the meter running.
So if you want truth and peace of mind, I suggest using

Mr. Claiborne helped me on a problem I had with a roofing company that had quoted replacing the roof on my home. The quote was for 5/8” Radiant Barrier decking which is the minimum thickness per Dallas building code. The roofing company instead replaced the decking with 7/16” thick decking to cut corners and increase their profit. When it was brought to my attention by another contractor working on the siding and interior of my home. I contacted the roofing company and explained to them the situation and told them they would have to come out and replace the decking they used with the correct
