Best Austin Personal Injury Attorneys

McMinn Law Firm has represented injured people across Central Texas since 2005. Brothers Jason and Justin McMinn began their careers defending insurance companies, and they now use that knowledge on the other side of the table.

The firm has recovered more than $500 million for clients. Cases include car and 18-wheeler crashes, bus collisions, bicycle and pedestrian injuries, and Uber or Lyft claims.

One of the McMinns stays involved in every file, so you work with a personal injury attorney in Austin rather than a case manager. The firm holds an A+ BBB rating and more than 400 five-star reviews. Free consultations are available around the clock, and the team speaks Spanish.

Featured in The New York Times, Texas Monthly, and the Austin American-Statesman, Funk & Associates handles vehicle crash claims throughout Central Texas.

The practice covers car wrecks, tractor-trailer collisions, motorcycle accidents, traumatic brain injuries, and product liability. Attorney Yanni Funk earned Texas Rising Stars honors from Super Lawyers in seven separate years and belongs to the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum.

Instead of listing settlement figures, the firm publishes client letters so people can judge the work themselves. It advances every case expense and takes a fee only from a recovery. Along with Austin, the office serves Round Rock and Cedar Park, and it works with Spanish-speaking clients.

Founder Laura Ramos James built a bilingual practice around the phrase Si Se Puede. Ramos James Law now works from offices in Austin and McAllen and takes cases statewide.

The team has recovered over $50 million. That includes a $1.273 million jury verdict against a hotel over an unsecured pool umbrella and a $2.75 million wrongful death settlement. Files range from semi-truck collisions and dog attacks to premises liability, workplace injuries, and sexual assault claims.

More than 200 Google reviews average 4.9 stars. Anyone looking for a personal injury lawyer in Austin who explains things in Spanish or English will reach staff at any hour. Nothing is owed unless the firm wins.

Since 2001, Ted and Lesley Lorenz have run a practice built on injury claims and nothing else. That narrow focus shows in Travis County courtrooms, where the team knows the local judges and procedures.

Settlements have passed $500 million, including $6 million after a truck crash and $3 million following a head-on collision with an 18-wheeler. The lawyers also take boating accidents on Lake Travis, downtown pedestrian and bicycle claims, dog bites, and nursing home neglect.

Over 1,000 five-star Google reviews back that record. Someone answers the phone at any hour, home and hospital visits are standard, and a second office covers Waco.

Stephen W. Stewart chairs the advisory board for MADD Texas and has spent 23 years representing accident victims. His office takes catastrophic injury, car and truck crash, and fatal accident claims across Central Texas.

Stewart also accepts referrals from other lawyers who need trial help on a file. Case reviews are free, the staff works in English and Spanish, and fees come only from a win.

More than $400 million recovered and a 99% win rate put DJC Law among the busiest injury practices in Texas. Founder Dan Christensen is a military veteran, board certified in personal injury trial law, and a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates.

The firm runs offices in North Austin, South Austin, Cedar Park, and San Marcos, plus locations in San Antonio, El Paso, and Chicago. Cases include construction accidents, premises liability, and medical malpractice. Someone picks up the phone 24 hours a day.

Plenty of firms settle quickly. Hayden Briggle and Parker Polan prepare every file as though a jury will see it, which changes how adjusters respond.

Results include $1.8 million for a delivery truck T-bone and $1,531,710 after a work accident caused a traumatic brain injury. Both founders hold Super Lawyers Rising Stars recognition and Austin Bar Foundation Lifetime Fellow status.

Clients deal with a partner rather than an assistant. The firm fronts all case costs and serves Georgetown, Round Rock, San Marcos, and New Braunfels as well.

Founded in 1959, Byrd Davis Alden & Henrichson is the oldest plaintiffs' injury practice in Austin. Its lawyers represented the families of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jim Croce after aviation crashes.

The firm now concentrates on catastrophic cases: commercial vehicle wrecks, motorcycle collisions, drunk driving and dram shop claims, construction site accidents, and product liability. U.S. News & World Report has ranked it among the best law firms in the country.

Mass torts set Justinian & Associates apart from most firms on this list. The practice takes defective medical devices, dangerous prescription drugs, and veterans disability claims alongside ordinary accident work.

Justinian C. Lane and managing partner Amber M. Pang Parra have run the firm for more than 13 years, fighting insurance companies that undervalue claims. Every consultation is with an attorney, not a screener, and costs nothing.

Ashley Applewhite spent part of her career on the defense side before opening her own office. That vantage point helps her read how an adjuster will value a claim.

She brings 18 years of litigation experience in Travis County and nearby courts, with more than 1,000 cases handled. Applewhite works every file herself, takes calls day or night, and serves clients in English and Spanish.

Oilfield blowouts, refinery explosions, and offshore injuries fill much of this docket. Zach McFarlane founded the firm and has secured $12.4 million in a trucking case and a $7.6 million offshore verdict. A second office in Odessa covers West Texas work sites.

Steven C. Lee has practiced injury law in Texas for over 30 years, focusing on 18-wheeler crashes, construction accidents, and wrongful death claims. He caps his caseload, drives across the state to meet clients, and sends updates every four to six weeks. Super Lawyers has placed him in the top 5% of attorneys statewide.

Board certification in personal injury trial law puts Jim Rodman in a small group of Texas attorneys. Over three decades he has handled medical negligence, nursing home abuse, dangerous product, and crash claims. The boutique office serves Travis, Williamson, and Hays counties, and Rodman is licensed in Colorado too.

Henry Moore is dual board certified in personal injury trial law and insurance law, a pairing fewer than 1,000 Texas lawyers hold. With Jayme Bomben, he handles injury claims and disputes against insurers, backed by 60 years of combined experience. Clients get the attorneys' mobile numbers.

Nearly 40 years of practice have earned Jay Doyle an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell and a 10.0 Avvo score. His office handles crash, premises liability, and fatal collision claims in English, Spanish, and Italian. Staff will travel to a home or hospital when a client cannot make it in.

A $5.6 million semi-truck settlement and a $2.4 million wrongful death recovery lead this firm's results. Managing attorney Luke Dow is board certified in personal injury trial law, a level under 1% of Texas lawyers reach. Dow Law Firm also keeps a Round Rock office for scheduled appointments.
