Results Matter.
Many families come to us after a serious birth injury, a wrongful death, or a permanent and disabling injury and say, “We never thought this would happen to us.” No one ever does. When a tragedy strikes that was caused by the negligence of another, you may be in a position where you need to file a lawsuit to protect yourself and your family. You want a law firm with a proven track record of results for other families. We want you to see our track record, and we want you to get to know us personally to decide if we are the right lawyers to fight for you and your family.
We are Board Certified Trial Lawyers by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. We are both Adjunct Professors of Trial Law at Baylor Law School. Combined, we have more than 62 years of experience.
