Brotherton Law Firm

Divorce

DUI/DWI
"As a former Allstate Insurance claims manager, I worked with a lot of law firms and the Brotherton Law Firm stood out. For over a decade, the Brotherton Law Firm handled some of our most difficult cases, producing defense verdicts or settlements that I never thought were possible. In some cases, the Brotherton Law Firm was handed cases on a Friday afternoon when trial was scheduled to start Monday, after our in-house counsel was not prepared to try the case. We always knew that we could rely on the Brotherton Law Firm. Over the years, I’ve gotten to know William J. Brotherton very well and I gave him special assignments that I knew only he and his firm could handle. For example, in one case, our insured got stuck in mud during a violent rainstorm, and when she was pulled out by another driver, she accidentally put her vehicle in drive and smashed the other driver’s head between the two bumpers. A pastor at the scene performed last rites as the driver’s wife held her spouse’s hand, convinced he was dying. He survived but suffered the effect of a lobotomy. To make matters worse, the insured driver had a prior DWI, and proceeded to receive another one after the accident. The policy limits were in the millions of dollars and in addition, there were significant assets at risk. Despite all this, Mr. Brotherton was able to settle this case for far under policy limits. In another case, an individual was attempting to repair a garage door opener for his brother and suffered horrific injuries when the spring became unbound. Mr. Brotherton, a former engineer, was able to unravel the technical issues and we prevailed on summary judgment. I highly recommend the Brotherton Law Firm."

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
"We are a pipeline inspection company with projects all over the world. The Brotherton Law Firm has represented us in a number of matters over the years involving a variety of issues. In one case, Mr. Brotherton was able to successfully resolve a case in which a worksite death involving other contractors occurred, even negotiating a very favorable resolution with OSHA. Mr. Brotherton also successfully defended EEOC claims and contract disputes. We have always found that his law firm responds quickly to our questions and requests for assistance and we recommend the firm highly."
Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property

Employment Contract
More and more, employers are being sued by their employees over hiring, firing, promotion, and discipline decisions. We will defend you if you are sued and advise and guide you through the maze of employment laws and regulations to help prevent lawsuits. Preparing employee handbooks, drafting employment agreements, protecting trade secrets, enforcing covenants not to compete, and dealing with federal and state regulatory administrative agencies are all part of the services provided by the Firm.

Real Estate Litigation
The Firm handles all real estate matters, including sales, leasing, title issues and insurance, and all zoning matters, including special use permits. On many occasions, the purchase of a business involves the acquisition of real estate, and this provides just one example of where multiple disciplines work together within the Firm. William J. Brotherton served as a Flower Mound, Texas planning & zoning commissioner for over six years, and is very familiar with the intricacies of land development and zoning issues. The Firm also was affiliated with Fidelity National Title, Inc., for nine years as fee attorneys, and can handle all land title issues for both commercial and residential properties, developed or undeveloped.
Real Estate Transactions
From 1992 to 1996, taught "Environmental Liabilities in Real Estate Transactions" at the Center for Environmental Research and Training (CERT) at the University of Texas at Arlington.
Easement
Land Use and Zoning
"We own a ranch in North Texas along with a trucking company and several associated businesses. Our driveway to the ranch crossed our neighbors land and we had always assumed that there was an easement. When our neighbor sued to stop our use of the easement, we turned to the Brotherton Law Firm. When William Brotherton took our case, his 1st step was to contact the attorney for the neighbor to see if there was a friendly way to resolve the lawsuit. There was not and we were forced to litigate. Over the course of 4 years of complex litigation, Mr. Brotherton, his daughter Shawn, also an attorney at the firm, and his team of lawyers aggressively fought to save my easement. During the course of the litigation, Mr. Brotherton, a former professor of environmental and land-use law at TCU, dug out the historical background of our ranch and discovered that our driveway had been in use over 100 years. The court granted summary judgment in our favor right before trial, and we were able to recover some of our attorneys’ fees but, most importantly, we have a written easement that can never be taken away. Mr. Brotherton and his team were tenacious and I was glad to have them on my side. I recommend the Brotherton Law Firm enthusiastically."
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Property Damage
Both William J. Brotherton and John Neuhoff of the Firm are accomplished and experienced mediators with Mr. Neuhoff well-versed in mediating complex family law cases, having run for District Court judge in Dallas County and being formally board-certified in family law. Mr. Brotherton has mediated a variety of cases including contract disputes, business partitions and property damage/personal injury cases.

Personal Injury
The Firm is proud to announce that it has hired its sixth attorney. Sean Hester, an attorney licensed in 1992 by the State Bar of Texas, is board-certified in personal injury law. Mr. Hester is a graduate of the Baylor School of Law, and received his undergraduate degree in business management from the University of Oklahoma.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Practices in the areas of civil litigation, business and corporate matters, energy, transportation, insurance, environmental issues, land use, administrative law, real estate, estate planning, and probate. He was admitted to the Texas State Bar in 1994 after graduating the same year from Texas Wesleyan University School of Law (Now Texas A&M University School of Law). He is also licensed in the State of North Dakota. When William J. Brotherton obtained his law degree in 1994 at the age of 44 after five years of night classes, he was the regional manager for BCM Engineers, Inc., a national environmental engineering firm. Prior to becoming an attorney, William worked at developing complex treatment plans for national Superfund sites and RCRA facilities as an environmental scientist. He received his MS in Environmental Science from the University of Texas at Dallas, and his undergraduate degree from the University of North Dakota. After obtaining his law degree, he then went on to teach environmental law as an adjunct professor for 12 years at Texas Christian University and lectured in environmental and land-use law at the Center for Environmental Research and Training at the University of Texas at Arlington. He has also lectured at Lamar University, the University of North Texas, and the University of Texas at Dallas.
Wills
Trusts
The Firm handles all estate planning matters, including the development of wills, trusts, including living trusts and all documents necessary to provide peace of mind for the family. When a loved one dies, it is often necessary to probate or administer the estate planning documents, and this sometimes, unfortunately, leads to litigation when family members cannot agree on matters such as distribution. The probate section works closely with the civil litigation group in this regard.
