Municipal

Figari & Davenport represents municipalities and other local governments, including Dallas County and the cities of Carrollton, Mesquite, Plano, Richardson, and Rockwall, Texas. We have litigated a variety of matters for these clients, ranging from breach of contract cases to boundary disputes to civil rights litigation. Additionally, we bring the full range of our labor and employment expertise to bear on behalf of our municipal clients, representing them in an array of employment litigation cases and arbitrations, including those premised on wrongful discharge and discrimination claims. In all instances, we are attuned to the reality that handling a legal matter for such a client can attract heightened scrutiny and draw significant attention.

Our experience representing municipalities also extends to a variety of real estate and land use matters, including cases involving construction law and zoning, as well litigation emanating from the acquisition, sale, development, or condemnation of real property. In addition to court appearances and arbitrations, our lawyers represent clients before various governmental bodies, such as civil service commissions.
