San Antonio Business Attorney James Montgomery
“After literally taking business transactions apart in the courtroom for years, clients (and opponents) began asking me to work on the transactions from the beginning to prevent the problems . . .”
________________________________________________________
After buying and selling over $100 Million in businesses in the last five years, as a business owner, former banker, and business attorney, I have seen and solved the major sticking points that most businesses encounter, including getting more customers who will spend more per transaction and buy more often. . .

San Antonio Business Attorney – Past Litigation Specialist
For the last thirty years, Mr. Montgomery has tried cases for plaintiffs and defendants in State and Federal courts from California to Texas to Delaware. The firm has been the advocate for individuals and small companies as well as companies in the Fortune 100. Those litigation cases have ranged from representing thousands of homeowners for broken plastic pipe in their homes to oil royalty disputes to breach of confidentiality agreements.
After literally taking business transactions apart in the courtroom for years, clients (and opponents) began asking Jim to work on the transactions from the beginning to try to prevent the problems from ever occurring. In that stance, the firm has helped buyers and sellers in the sales of businesses ranging from large retail stores and manufacturing facilities to insurance agencies. We have helped clients buy multi-million dollar, multi-story office buildings and and negotiate commercial lease agreements.

Jim was remarkable in helping me navigate through various credit matters. He has saved my thousands of dollars and the aggravation of not having to deal directly with credit companies. I am well on track in reaching my finanical objectives and my credit rating is nearly restored. I appreciated how he educated me on the entire financial planning process, and am greatly indebted to him for his services. I would recommend Jim to all my friends and family.
Best,

Jim is an invaluable friend and mentor to me, my family and my businesses. He operates in a straight forward, highly ethical manner and always has my best interest in mind.
I could not imagine navigating the transactions I deal with daily without Jim on my team.
