Our founder, Michael Holmes, attended the D Magazine Best Lawyers in Dallas 2026 event and had the opportunity to connect with distinguished members of the legal community. The event provided a meaningful setting for professional engagement and thoughtful discussion centered on the continued advancement of the practice of law.

We are also proud to recognize his inclusion in D Magazine’s Best Lawyers in Dallas 2026. This distinction reflects his ongoing commitment to delivering legal services with integrity, diligence, and professionalism.

Holmes Law Group remains grateful for the continued trust of its clients and is committed to maintaining the highest standards of legal excellence.

A cease and desist letter creates pressure by design.

It is written to feel urgent, firm, and immediate.

But urgency should not override evaluation.

In practice, these letters vary significantly in strength. Some are well-supported legally. Others are more strategic or aggressive in tone.

The mistake we see most often is not the letter itself—but how quickly people respond without understanding what they are actually dealing with.

Because once you respond, that communication becomes part of the record and can influence the direction of the dispute.

The first step is not reaction.

It’s assessment.

I’ve seen this happen more times than most business owners would expect.

On paper, everything looks fine—signed agreement, clear business terms, everyone aligned at the start.

But when something goes wrong, the conversation changes completely.

Suddenly, both sides are reading the same contract differently. What felt “obvious” at signing becomes unclear under pressure. And that’s usually when people realize the contract wasn’t as protective as they thought.

The issue is rarely that there’s no contract. It’s that important parts were never made truly clear—liability, responsibilities, exit terms, or what happens when things don’t go as planned.

And in real disputes, those details matter more than anything else.

That’s why contract work is never just about drafting documents. It’s about anticipating how things might unfold when business reality gets complicated.

Because the real test of a contract isn’t signing it—it’s what happens after.

On Memorial Day, we pause to reflect on the true cost of the freedoms we live with every day.

Behind that freedom are men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to the United States.

Their courage is the reason we are able to build businesses, serve clients, and live with opportunity and choice.

At Holmes Law Group, we recognize that this foundation is not something to take lightly.

Today, we honor the fallen and the families who continue to carry their memory forward.

We are grateful. We remember. We honor.

We appreciate the acknowledgment from D Magazine and remain focused on continuing that standard moving forward.

When I started advising buyers, I noticed a pattern: most overpay—not because they’re bad negotiators, but because they miss hidden risks, weak deal structures, or let emotions take over.

That’s why at Holmes Law Group, we don’t just look at the numbers. We help our clients see the risks, structure deals properly, and protect their business value—before signing anything.

It’s not just about paying the right price. It’s about making the right deal.

Holmes Law Group secured a large, highly favorable settlement for multiple royalty owners in a complex oil & gas royalty and title dispute against the operator.

This case involved multiple parties and competing interests, requiring a strategic approach at every stage. By combining litigation expertise with a deep understanding of our clients’ business priorities, we were able to deliver an outcome that truly protected their interests.

At Holmes Law Group, we don’t just resolve disputes—we anticipate risks, craft strategy, and stand with our clients when stakes are highest. Every settlement, every negotiation, every case is an opportunity to ensure our clients’ businesses are protected, positioned, and empowered for the future.

7 out of 10 contracts I review have a hidden risk.

Ambiguities, vague obligations, and hidden assumptions often lurk in the fine print. Most clients think their deal is safe… until reality tests it.

The smartest move isn’t just signing—it’s spotting risks before they spot you.

A contract isn’t strong until it survives the worst-case scenario.

Have you ever signed an agreement only to discover a hidden risk later? How did you handle it?

Don’t let hidden risks catch you off guard.

After years in traditional law firms, I started to see a gap—clients needed more than just legal answers. They needed a partner who truly understood their business.

So in 2018, I took the leap and built Holmes Law Group on a simple idea:
there’s a better way to serve clients.

At HLG, we don’t separate transactional work from litigation.
I believe the strongest agreements come from lawyers who understand how deals break—and how disputes unfold.

That belief shapes everything we do.

Our team brings experience across:
• Complex business transactions
• Commercial litigation
• Contract negotiation and risk management
• Banking, corporate, construction, employment, data privacy, and cybersecurity

But what truly sets us apart isn’t just what we do—it’s how we show up.

We care about our clients’ businesses (almost) as much as they do.
We aim to be the first call when something’s at stake—not just when something goes wrong.

Because at the end of the day, I didn’t set out to just build another law firm.
I set out to build trust—with every client, every deal, and every outcome.

That’s been the focus from day one—and it still is.
