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.

Why Sue the Bar After a DWI Accident?

The “Admissions” Department at a For-Profit University
Education can open the doors to better opportunities in life. A better paying job, prestige and higher social class are all things that most people aspire to have at one point or another. However, not everyone is able to physically go to classes. Many people have career obligations, family obligations, or are simply unable to […]

Sobriety Checkpoints – Are DWI Stops in Texas’ Future?
Every year there’s an effort by politicians and groups like MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) to make sobriety checkpoints legal in Texas. It’s no surprise that with nearly 1,300 alcohol related driving fatalities in 2010 alone that concerned citizens want the Texas government to take a more proactive stand on preventing drunk driving. This past week San Antonio Police Deputy Chief Anthony Trevino asked the Texas House Criminal Jurisprudence Committee to once again try to legalize sobriety checkpoints.
Beating The Heat Behind Bars – Summer Deaths Lead to Lawsuits Against Texas Prisons

Crack Down on Barratry – Ambulance Chasers On the Run
