Jeff Rasansky
I am a Dallas Attorney who is passionate about giving a voice to those who have been personally injured by the negligence or abuse of others.
I earned my law degree at Southern Methodist University in 1990 after receiving my undergraduate degree from the University of Texas.
Soon after earning my law license, I joined a blue chip law firm in downtown Dallas where I learned the legal maneuvers used by large hospitals and corporations. I later joined another large Dallas Law Firm where I began representing people who were injured by the negligence of others.
Since then, I have won tens of millions of dollars for clients who have been catastrophically injured by the neglect of others. My legal wins against doctors, hospitals and nursing homes have been featured in newspaper articles and television and radio reports across the southwest.
Visit my website at www.jrlawfirm.com for more information and great resources on topics like Cerebral Palsy, Day Care and Nursing Home Abuse, Medical Malpractice, Auto and Truck Accidents and much more.
Feel free to contact me at (214) 651-6100 if I can help answer any questions.
