About

I represent injured and disabled people. I help people with work injuries pursue workers' compensation claims or sue their employer for damages. I help those who become disabled get social security disability. I also help people injured due to negligence obtain a recovery against those that caused their injuries. I am Board Certified in Workers' Compensation Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. I have been named a Texas SuperLawyer by Texas Monthly. The National Trial Lawyers have named me a Top 100 attorney in Texas. I was also named a Top 10 personal injury attorney in Texas by the National Academy of Personal Injury Attorneys.
