Navigating Morning Fog-Related Accidents in Texas

Dense morning fog transforms familiar Texas roadways into treacherous corridors where visibility vanishes in seconds.

These weather conditions create particularly dangerous scenarios during peak commuting […]

The True Cost of a Personal Injury: Beyond Medical Bills

When a personal injury disrupts your life, the financial impact goes far beyond the initial ambulance ride and emergency room visit. The true cost covers every aspect of your daily existence.

Holiday Shopping Safety and Premises Liability Protection

The holiday shopping season transforms retail spaces into bustling hubs where crowded aisles, hurried shoppers, and overstocked displays create a perfect storm for preventable injuries. A single misstep on a wet floor or collision with poorly placed merchandise can turn a festive outing into a painful ordeal requiring medical attention and months of recovery. When […]

What Should I Do If the Insurance Company Offers Me a Quick Settlement?

The insurance company is betting you’ll take the money and run. A fast settlement might sound tempting when bills are piling up and your injuries keep you from work, but insurers don’t offer quick deals to be generous. They offer them because they know what most claimants don’t: the true value of your case likely […]

Do I Need to Go to the Hospital Even If I Feel Fine After an Accident?

Yes, you should go to the hospital even if you feel fine after an accident. Many serious injuries don’t show symptoms immediately.

Case Results

Bus Accident

Experience Matters

Our personal injury lawyers have been fighting for justice in courtrooms in Texas and across the country since our founding in 1959. Unlike many law firms that handle accident cases, we are trial lawyers. The advantage of hiring true trial attorneys is leverage.

On Your Side

You don’t have to accept an unreasonable settlement when you have the ability to go to trial and get full and fair compensation. The other side will take notice when you hire injury lawyers with experience in the courtroom. Often, we are able to negotiate a settlement without going to trial.

Highly Trusted

Our business was founded on serving our clients with honesty, integrity and excellence. Over 60 years later, we carry on our founders’ goals. Our personal injury attorneys are dedicated to treating every single client with the respect and care they deserve.
