Joseph Schreiber

As a former jail guard and amateur boxer, I’m not afraid of a fight and I don’t back down. As a former teacher of high school special education – as part of Teach for America – I like to speak in front of people and am good at taking complex ideas and making them understandable to people of a variety of backgrounds and education levels. As a volunteer tutor for inner city kids, I have compassion and patience.

I spent my first decade practicing law working for and being trained by some of the largest and most prestigious law firms in Houston and the United States, including Fulbright & Jaworski, LLP (now Norton Rose Fulbright) and Bracewell LLP.

I wasn’t just sitting in the office billing hours. I tried lawsuits in state and federal courts and in front of arbitration panels. I took hundreds of depositions and presented clients, fact and expert witnesses in depositions and at trial. I worked on huge cases with millions of pages of documents and made them easy to understand, and represented individuals and small businesses with the same effort and attention to detail. My experience included product liability litigation, mass torts, business litigation, bankruptcy litigation and construction law, among others. I advised individuals and small businesses as well in the drafting of their contracts and assisted them in negotiations. (Representative experience listed below.)

In January 2014, I left the large law firms and started a boutique law firm serving both individuals and smaller businesses. At Schreiber | Knockaert, PLLC, our motto is Law Done Right. This applies to how we treat our clients and how we practice law. We believe first and foremost that our clients’ interests come first and we are here to serve. We offer the skill and expertise that clients expect from large law firms and provide the personal service associated with a boutique law practice.
