Up until his sophomore year in High School, Jeremy Overbey moved about once a year—a byproduct of his father being a construction manager. Switching locations and schools basically every year helped Jeremy learn to adapt to new situations and exposed him to a variety of social situations and different parts of the country. He also worked on construction sites during summers breaks in college and law school to pay for living expenses during the school year. Jeremy knew he wanted to be an attorney since around the seventh grade, as he has always liked reading, writing, problem-solving, and being able to do different types of work.
One of Jeremy’s primary practice concentrations is commercial litigation/dispute resolution, ranging across multiple different areas, including commercial landlord/tenant law, partnership disputes, real estate litigation, financial services (lending/mortgage servicing) workouts and litigation, contract disputes, vendor disputes, and many other types of disputes. Jeremy has represented both plaintiffs and defendants in these matters. Jeremy can take matters from the pre-litigation dispute level all the way though trial, with first chair trial experience.
Jeremy also serves as general outside counsel to small businesses to provide general guidance and assistance as needed. He also assists businesses with negotiation and drafting of specific contracts and transactions. As part of this practice, Jeremy has helped negotiate many commercial leases, using his experience working with both landlords and tenants to guide businesses through the process. Jeremy has also assisted businesses with other types of real estate transactions, asset purchases, negotiation of operating agreements, borrower-side legal assistance with loans/lines of credit (including attorney opinion letters), settlements, and many other types of contracts and transactions. Being licensed since 2004 and practicing for over twenty years, Jeremy has a broad range of experience and isn’t afraid to take on new and diverse types of matters and being a utility player for his clients. Jeremy prides himself on being responsive to his clients’ communications to go along with results.
Outside of work, Jeremy spends most of his time hanging out with his wife, two sons, and other friends and family. He also enjoys reading (mainly fantasy, sci-fi, and fiction), watching sports, playing fantasy football, and keeping up with tv shows, movies, and current events. Jeremy has been selected to Texas Super Lawyers, Rising Stars Edition 2014-2019 and Texas Super Lawyers 2024-2025.
