Lawyer Legion created this list of the top picks in 2024 for the best personal injury attorneys in Texas. To rank the top personal injury attorneys, and other lawyers in Texas, we used both objective and subjective criteria.

The top personal injury attorneys were selected based on their career accomplishments, success in high-profile cases, professional involvement, community leadership, and board certifications.

This list represents some of the most highly accomplished personal injury lawyers currently practicing in Texas. When reviewing this list, please be aware of each of the following:
