We wish to announce that the law firm of Garg & Associates, PC has moved to a new office location in the Woodlands, Texas, as well as our California office which is now in Aliso Viejo, California (Orange County). We will continue to provide the same premium quality legal services to all existing clients in Texas and California,  just with a new address. Please make a note of our new contact information which can be found under “Our Office Locations” page on any of our seven websites.  At Garg & Associates, we represent both individuals and business clients in the following areas:

Family Law- This area of law includes divorce, adoptions, child custody, child support enforcement and defense, protective orders, modifications, SAPCRs, and suits to adjudicate parentage.

Immigration Law – We have the expertise to help with a number of immigration issues, such as family sponsorship (i.e. marriage to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident), adjustment of status to obtain a green card, obtaining visas for work or education, naturalization to become a U.S citizen, and virtually every other area of immigration and naturalization law. Often we are called upon to assist companies that wish to bring in foreign workers with specialized skills or to invest and transfer assets into the U.S. Whatever the issue, Garg & Associates will diligently pursue your goals.

Business Law/Formations- We assist business clients in selecting the proper form of entity to create as well as drafting and filing all documents with the proper state agencies to ensure a smooth launch of your business. Conscientious contract review and careful drafting are crucial elements in the conduct or formation of any business and we have many years experience in this process. We can also assist in negotiating shareholder buy/sell agreements, operating agreements and employment contracts.

Civil Litigation- Litigation is a fact of life in today’s business world and we have the training and experience to meet those challenges. Whether defending or prosecuting litigation, you need an experienced litigator to protect your interests. Garg & Associates zealously represents its clients in litigation and will employ every legal measure available to ensure that our clients receive justice.

Bankruptcy – The mere mention of the word “Bankruptcy” conjures up a plethora of negative implications ranging from personal failures and lack of character to the ruin of one’s credit score. In fact, in light of the recent economy, it has become more common, and is not the nightmare that many people imagine it to be. The purpose of Bankruptcy laws is to give those unable to pay all their debts some relief and a chance to start over, whether it be an individual or a business. We have helped many people through this arduous process with minimal discomfort. Chapter 7 provides a means for people not able to meet these obligations to obtain a fresh start, free of burdensome debt. Chapter 13 can help you re-schedule the payment of some debt, avoid some debts altogether, and repay your debts over a 36 to 60 month period. Garg & Associates can help you make the difficult decision about which path to take.

Construction Defects – In the burgeoning construction industry, often serious problems arise with residential and commercial buildings. Few things are more devastating to a family than when these defects are present in the family residence. Whether it is below standard construction techniques, slab problems or design issues, we aggressively pursue the individuals or entities responsible, and hold them accountable for your damages.

Wills, Trust and Estates – Whether your estate is small or large and complex, our attorneys have the expertise to guide you through the estate planning process. It is important to you and your family that the assets that you worked your entire lifetime to accumulate are properly preserved for the benefit of your family and loved ones. We can assist you in making these all important decisions that will have a lasting and permanent effect on those you leave behind.

Criminal Law – We represent individuals and businesses in all aspects of felony and misdemeanor criminal defense, including but not limited to, DWI, possession of controlled substances, theft, assault, domestic violence, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and many others.

We recognize that many individuals and businesses are struggling during this tough economy. Many businesses are having a hard time maintaining working capital to keep up with operating business expenses due to customers not being in a position to pay for services. As a result, many individuals already have been or are now being terminated or laid off because their employers can’t afford to keep them….and the Domino effect continues. On both sides, meeting financial obligations are becoming more challenging. To make matters worse, the banks are not lending money, and when they do, they make you jump through hoops to obtain even nominal funding. Unless you have an amazing credit score, already have a good-paying job, or have collateral that you can use to secure funding, obtaining financing, whether it be personal or business related, is extremely difficult. Of course, the average indivual does not meet this criteria, nor the average business, and even if they do, they are charged ridiculous interest rates on personal/business loans, or lines of credit.

We believe that quality legal services and premium legal representation should still be available to all our clients, regardless of the current economic health of our nation. As a result, we have reduced our retainers and replenishment amounts, our hourly billing rates, and our consultation fees, so that we can continue servicing our existing clients, as well as any new potential clients. We want to help you, no matter what your financial situation may be.

Call us today to set up a consultation at 281-362-2865.

Although less frequent as of late, we consistently receive inquiries on our various Garg & Associates, PC websites, from “clients seeking counsel” to rectify outstanding past due fees owed to them. Usually, these scam artists (we will call them schemers for short) pose as CEOs and VIPs of big corporations allegedly located in Nigeria, Korea, Hong Kong, Japan, etc., and they typically claim to have outstanding amounts owed to them, which range from $500,000.00 – $5,000,000.00.  I confess, that we have engaged in communications with these schemers in the past (thought they were legitimate inquiries), and recently, we have done so, just to see how far the scam goes.  A few months ago, we even received a phony check (which looked legitimate) from one of these schemers, and only discovered it was a fraudulent check when we took it to the bank.  Can you imagine?

So, to all you international scam artists….don’t waste your time or ours…we are on to you!
