University of Oklahoma law graduate Doctorate of Jurisprudence in 1977. Practicing over 40 years in Harris County/Fort Bend County, Texas. Areas of practice: Wrongful death, Personal Injury, Truck and automobile accident cases and medical mal-practice cases (Just this year settled a case against a behavioral hospital for three million dollars ($3,000,000.00) anywhere in the State of Texas. Dealing with Insurance companies in Texas is difficult as they are dishonest and getting money from them takes hard/dedicated work. Our law firm has two board certified personal injury attorneys and one board certified labor law attorney. We are capable of communicating in Spanish, Russian & Swiss/German. We do our own work and do not transfer our cases out side of our law firm to outside attorneys. Free consultations and we do not make a fee unless our client wins by settlement or by jury award. We never make more than our client.

Fees

Free Consultation We do not charge for the initial consultation. All other fees are contingent upon a settlement that is satisfactory to our client or in case of trial what a jury awards us for winning the case.

Contingent Fees We charge a 33 /3 % contingency fee prior to filing the law suit if a case is settled. We charge a 40% contingency fee after filing a law suit and the case is settled after a substantial amount of litigation work is done on the case and/or we try the case in court. If we file the law suit and the insurance company settles the case (to our client's satisfaction) we only charge the 33 1/3 % contingency fee.

Rates, Retainers and Additional Information Most law firms' contingency fees go up to 40% immediately after the law suit is filed. We do not. Only if significant pre-trial work is done on the case meaning, discovery completed, depositions completed, and the case has been mediated and is ready for trial.
