He primarily represents personal injury clients and has been board certified in personal injury trial law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization since 1991. He has been consistently recognized as a “Super Lawyer” by Texas Monthly Magazine beginning in 2003, and is an advocate in the American Board of Trial Advocates.
