The Weaver Law Firm

Focus and reach of the work

Based in Houston, The Weaver Law Firm also has an office in San Antonio. The firm works with clients in Houston, Harris County, San Antonio, South Texas, and other parts of the state. Its stated practice areas combine property matters, company disputes, civil litigation, and probate.

Real estate law, construction law, and business litigation receive the most detail on the firm's website. The broader list includes commercial contracts, personal injury, intellectual property infringement litigation, health care law, employment law, and general counsel services. Spanish-speaking services are available.

Real estate work and board certification

Richard D. Weaver is Board Certified in Residential Real Estate Law and Commercial Real Estate Law. His work focuses on real estate litigation. The firm states that he handles fact investigation, discovery, trial, and post-judgment proceedings.

The practice covers real estate transactions as well as disputes. A transaction can require review of purchase terms, title records, surveys, financing documents, disclosures, and closing papers. A dispute may concern ownership, contract duties, boundaries, development rights, leasing terms, or the condition of property.

Real estate litigation often turns on the written record. Deeds, contracts, notices, payment records, inspection materials, and communications can shape the issues before a court. Richard Weaver's stated involvement in investigation and discovery fits the document-heavy nature of this work.

Construction and company disputes

The firm's construction work includes disputes involving contractors and builders. These matters often begin with the agreement, the plans, payment records, change orders, notices, and proof of completed work. The parties may disagree about delay, workmanship, payment, or the scope of promised services.

Construction claims can involve several contracts tied to one project. Owners, contractors, builders, and subcontractors may hold different records and duties. Early review usually focuses on the contract language, the project timeline, and any notice requirements that affect a claim.

Shareholder and fiduciary matters

Jonathan W. Wu handles business disputes, including shareholder disputes and fiduciary obligations. His work addresses litigation that can affect a company's cash flow and strategic goals. That description gives prospective clients a useful sense of the commercial concerns involved.

Shareholder cases commonly require close review of governing documents, ownership records, voting rights, company accounts, and communications between the parties. Fiduciary claims add questions about loyalty, care, disclosure, and the use of company assets. Courts may need to decide both legal duties and the financial effect of the conduct at issue.

The firm also lists business and commercial law, commercial contracts, and general counsel services. Contract work can include drafting, review, interpretation, and dispute planning. General counsel work may give a company legal support on recurring business issues, though each engagement depends on the client's needs.

Personal injury, intellectual property, and probate

The personal injury practice focuses on serious motor vehicle accidents. These cases usually require records about the collision, medical treatment, insurance communications, lost income, and other claimed harm. Fault, causation, and damages are separate questions, and each needs supporting proof.

A motor vehicle claim may begin with an investigation and insurance submissions. Litigation can add pleadings, written discovery, depositions, motions, and trial preparation. The firm's website identifies the type of injury matter it accepts without publishing case results or settlement figures.

Intellectual property infringement litigation

The firm handles intellectual property infringement disputes. Such cases often ask who owns the asserted rights, what conduct occurred, and whether that conduct violated those rights. Records about creation, registration, licensing, sales, access, and use can become central evidence.

Available remedies depend on the right involved and the facts of the dispute. A court may examine requests for monetary relief or orders addressing continued use. The website places this work within the firm's litigation services.

Probate proceedings

Probate is also among the firm's stated practice areas. In a typical probate matter, a court may validate a will, appoint a personal representative, address creditor claims, and oversee the transfer of estate property. The exact path depends on the estate documents, family circumstances, assets, debts, and any dispute.

Probate work often requires a death certificate, the original will, asset records, account statements, property documents, and information about heirs or beneficiaries. Contested proceedings may involve questions about capacity, influence, fiduciary conduct, or the meaning of a will. These issues can require court hearings and formal evidence.

How the legal team is built

The website names five attorneys: Richard D. Weaver, Jonathan W. Wu, Len E. Walker, Amir R. Befroui, and Sylvia Jaramillo. It gives the greatest practice detail for Richard Weaver and Jonathan Wu. Their stated work points to two central parts of the firm, real estate litigation and business disputes.

Richard Weaver's double Board Certification is especially relevant to the residential and commercial real estate work described on the site. Board certification identifies a formal credential in those fields. His stated role also covers later stages of litigation, including trial and post-judgment proceedings.

Jonathan Wu's profile connects legal disputes with business operations. Shareholder claims and fiduciary issues can affect control, access to records, distributions, and company funds. His stated attention to cash flow and strategic goals places those practical concerns within the litigation discussion.

Credentials and public information

The firm reports that Super Lawyers selected Richard Weaver for inclusion and that Texas Monthly acknowledged him. In my opinion, his two real estate board certifications provide the clearest practice-specific credential on the website. They also align directly with the firm's stated focus on residential and commercial property matters.

The website gives a defined list of legal services and identifies the attorneys associated with its most detailed areas. Clients can see a strong emphasis on real estate, construction, and business disputes, along with several related civil matters. The Weaver Law Firm operates in Houston and San Antonio and offers Spanish-speaking services.

Estate planning as a separate service

The directory record lists estate planning independently from probate. That distinction adds a forward-looking service to the court-based estate work discussed elsewhere in the profile. The record does not define the planning documents covered, so prospective clients should ask which matters the firm accepts and which attorney would handle the engagement.

The separate listing also helps clients describe the stage of their matter when they contact the office. Someone seeking planning assistance has a different immediate need from a person dealing with an estate after a death. Clear information about the relevant documents and current circumstances should help the firm determine whether the request fits its work.

No attorney biography in the record assigns estate planning to a named lawyer. A prospective client may therefore want to ask about attorney responsibility at the start of the inquiry. That question is particularly useful when a matter could later involve probate or a dispute over estate property.

Office access and contact details

The firm's main office is at 1800 Bering Drive, Suite 1050, Houston, Texas 77057. The suite number gives visitors a more precise destination than the directory's street address alone. The San Antonio office receives clients by appointment only, so a meeting there requires advance arrangements.

The record publishes two telephone numbers, 713-572-4900 and 210-807-8932. It also identifies the firm's website as weaverlawyers.com. When contacting the firm, a prospective client can state the preferred office and explain whether the request concerns advice, a transaction, or an active dispute. For a San Antonio meeting, confirming the location and appointment details before travel is sensible.

The Houston address is identified as the main office, while the appointment requirement sets a different access process for San Antonio. That operational detail may matter to clients who need an in-person consultation or expect to deliver documents. The published record does not describe walk-in availability, so arranging the visit directly is the practical course.
