As Chairman of the Business Group, I oversee our corporate and commercial matters, with emphasis on mergers and acquisitions, real estate, entity formation and structuring, corporate finance, lending and venture capital.
My own practice includes extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions, capital formation, contract negotiation/documentation, lending, factoring and day-to-day representation of corporations and other business entities. I frequently participate in the organization and financing of business entities, as well as the negotiation and documentation of complex transactions. Special components of my practice include the representation of United Kingdom-based companies in Texas, insurance agencies and factoring companies. Representative transactions include the sale of a Houston-based oil and gas service company to a purchaser based out of the United Kingdom, the purchase of a California-based project services company by a company headquartered in England, and the sale of an insurance services company to a public corporation. I enjoy developing strong relationships with my clients, and strive to make a difference in their business lives. I am AV rated and a fellow of the Houston Bar Foundation.
I have been actively involved since 1994 with Camp For All Foundation, which owns and operates a camp for chronically ill and disabled children and adults near Brenham, Texas. I served as Chairman of the foundation from 1999 through 2001 and currently serve as general counsel. Boyar & Miller actively supports Camp For All, through annual financial contributions and by providing pro bono legal services on a regular basis.
In addition to my involvement with Camp For All,
I have also been actively involved with Congregation Beth Israel of Houston, currently serving on the Board of Trustees and formerly as an officer of the congregation. I also serve on the Board of Trustees and the Executive Committee of the Shlenker School in Houston. My wife, Toni, and I have two married children, both of whom live and work in Houston. All of us in the Miller family are actively involved in sports and fitness activities.
