I turn down more cases than I accept.

Not because the person is not hurt. Not because I do not care. Because I already know the three things that have to line up before a case is worth filing, and if one of them is missing, I would rather tell you now than waste your time.

Here is what I look at:

1. Liability. Can I prove someone else caused this? Not just "they hit me," but can I prove it with real evidence that meets the legal burden of proof? Dashcam footage, witness statements, phone records. In Texas, if a jury says you are 51% at fault, you get nothing. So the evidence has to be locked in tight.

2. Recoverability. Even if I prove fault, is there money to recover? Does the at-fault party have insurance? Do you have UM/UIM coverage? Does a household member have a policy that covers you? If you got hurt by a government vehicle, did we meet the strict notice deadlines under the Texas Tort Claims Act? If you got hurt on someone else’s property, do they have relevant insurance coverage? I have to prove a source of recovery exists.

3. Damages. How badly are you hurt, and can we prove it? Medical records, expert testimony, documentation of how your life changed. Texas law lets you recover economic and non-economic damages with no cap in most PI cases, but you have to meet the burden of proof for every dollar you claim.

We focus on catastrophic injuries and wrongful death. However, at the end of the day, if the above three pieces of the pie are present, I’m happy to help good people that need it. But if you’re not hurt at all in some way, I can’t help.

So there it is: three pieces of a pie! All three are required, and the burden of proof runs through every single one.

If you have been hurt and want a straight, honest answer about whether your case checks these boxes, call me. The consultation is 100% free.

Happy Cinco de Mayo! Go celebrate, safely!

Last year, saw over 2,200 alcohol-related crashes. 88 people did not make it home. Tonight is historically one of the worst nights for drunk driving nationwide. NHTSA data shows nearly 4 out of 10 fatal crashes on May 5th involve alcohol.

And here’s something most people don’t know: the drunk driver may not be the only one responsible. Under Texas dram shop law, if a bar or restaurant served someone who was visibly, obviously intoxicated, and that person caused your crash, the establishment may be held liable. Their commercial insurance policies are typically much larger than the driver's policy.

If you were a victim of a drunk driving crash, we always investigate beyond the driver.

Have a plan and be safe. We’re here if you need us.

These 5 things wreck your Texas car wreck case.

Most people do at least two of them in the first 48 hours and have no idea they just torched their own case.

The sad part is the rules of "what to do after a wreck" aren't taught anywhere. Not in driver's ed, insurance papers, and definitely not by the adjuster who calls you the next morning acting like your best friend and trying to get you to “just sign some paperwork.”

So you wing it, and then they cash.

Save this for the day you'll need it. Then send it to the friend who already wrecked and hasn't called a lawyer yet.

If you were in a wreck, I genuinely want to know what YOUR experience was. Let me know in the comments.

So you’re looking at a grown man, in a cutoff sleeve kickball shirt, with cartoon stickers on his chest, recording a video about being a lawyer. Feels about right!

People ask me why I don't shoot these things in a suit and tie. There are a couple valid reasons.

The first one is simple. If I'm in court, I'm in a tie. The suit is for formal work settings. Putting it on for a 30-second clip on the internet is a costume, and not real. If y’all know me, y’all know I don’t play those games. Like it or not, you’ll always get the real me, no matter what.

The second one is the bigger one. What you see in these videos is what I actually look like at 7 in the morning, because by the time I'm filming I've already been up for hours. I hang out with my wife and kid first, then workout, then read philosophical and positive books to get my mind right. Then I film these videos while I’m feeling good, and before my calendar kicks in for the day.

So that's what y’all see, because it’s real, no B.S. That’s me, baby!

The Lightning McQueen stickers are a bonus. My kid says they help make me faster. He's 4 and he's never been wrong about anything…

You don't pay me up front. Not me, not anyone other honest personal injury attorney in Texas who does this work the right way.

We work on what's called a “contingency fee.” In plain English, that means you don't write a check to hire me, you don't pay upfront for the medical records, the accident reconstructionist, the expert witnesses, or even the filing fees. I cover all of it out of my own pocket while your case is pending.

So how do we get paid? When the case resolves, my fee and case expenses come out of the settlement or verdict. If there's no recovery, you owe me nothing. Not for my time, work, or even the costs I fronted.

That isn't a slogan. it’s just how the system was built. The only way an injured person can stand on equal footing with a billion-dollar insurance company is if the lawyer is willing to put their own skin in the game.

Finances or budgets should never be the reason you don't call. Not for a wreck, not for a workplace injury, not for anything.

So if you've been sitting on this because you thought it would cost you, it doesn’t. Call me for a 100% free consultation.
