The attorneys of Friedman, Suder & Cooke serve clients throughout the United States and overseas. Established in 1993, our firm is composed of trial lawyers whose singular focus is providing the highest quality litigation services to individuals and businesses in the area of complex civil litigation. Our successes often include multimillion dollar results for our clients in a number of high profile, publicized cases. We represent clients in every level of state and federal court, which includes all necessary appellate practice and argument.

Our attorneys possess high academic credentials, maintain exceptional community ties, and are dedicated to achieving justice for those we represent. Achieving justice means protecting our clients’ rights while obtaining the results our clients deserve. Because we are privileged to be entrusted with our clients’ causes, we strive to return that trust in the form of expert advocacy and open lines of communication. To ensure we provide the highest level of service and maintain our sensitivity to the ever-changing legal landscape, our attorneys are members of and active in the American Bar Association, the Federal Circuit Bar Association, the State Bar of Texas Litigation Council, the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, the Tarrant County Bar Foundation and many other organizations.

As a small, cohesive firm, we are selective in the cases we accept. For the cases we accept, we work hard, engaging each other in what we believe to be our unique style of strategic planning sessions geared to produce the clearest path to the results our clients seek. We strive to provide services in a timely, cost-effective, ethical, and professional manner, with our clients’ needs and goals as our principal concern. Because of the size and complexity of our cases, we commonly square off against the largest law firms in the country.

In the intellectual property arena, we represent inventors and patent owners on an array of contingent fee bases, allowing the inventors to protect their intellectual property against large corporations. We regularly work with other intellectual property lawyers around the country to evaluate and, if warranted, pursue infringement claims on behalf of clients who are unable to fund a patent infringement lawsuit on a traditional hourly-fee plus expenses basis.

In the area of oil and gas, we have represented mineral interest owners and producers on complex accounting matters, oil well blowouts, development agreement issues, production contracts and royalty disputes. We represent producers on a regular basis.

We have represented a number of banks in lawsuits. We are frequently called on to represent bank trust departments in fiduciary duty cases. We have also represented the commercial side of a number of banks involving many issues from antitrust to lender claims.

Further, we often represent small businesses in disputes involving contracts, fraud, securities, antitrust, employment and real property claims. And we have ample experience representing contractors in commercial and residential construction disputes.

In summary, courtroom experience, dedication to quality, keen understanding of the law, creativity, and long-standing relationships with our clients, the community, and other attorneys across the country are the tenets that form the bedrock of Friedman, Suder & Cooke. We look forward to representing you when the need arises.
