Highest Wrongful Death Settlement in Texas, 2024
An 8-figure settlement secured for a grieving family. We bring that same level of preparation, expertise, and trial-readiness to every case we take.
Why Patterson Law Group
Big enough to get it done.
Small enough to care.
We care more about your life than your lawsuit. That sounds backwards for a law firm — but it's why our clients trust us with the most painful season of their lives, and why we say no to more cases than we take on.
We keep our roster intentionally small. If we can't add real value to your case, we'll tell you. We might not always say what you want to hear — but we'll always tell you what you need to hear.

Built on Referrals, Not Mass Marketing
Most of our clients come from past clients and the lawyers we've earned the trust of.
The Adversary
The Deck Is Stacked Against You.
After a serious accident, it can feel like everyone is working against you. Three forces in particular tend to make a bad day worse.
Insurance Companies
Their adjusters are trained to deny, delay, and underpay. They count on you not knowing what your case is actually worth — and on the panic of mounting medical bills to make you settle for less.
The Marketing Bombardment
Within hours of a wreck you'll see lawyers screaming at you from TV ads, billboards, radio spots, and Instagram reels. It's hard to know who actually has your best interests at heart — and easy to end up with a high-volume firm that treats you like another file on a shelf.
A Complicated System
Texas comparative fault, statutes of limitations as short as 180 days for some defendants, medical liens, paid-or-incurred rules — one misstep can sink your case before it starts.

Schedule a Free Consultation
Reach out 24/7 — by phone, text, or the form on this page. We'll listen to your story, answer your questions honestly, and tell you whether we can add real value to your case.
We Build Your Playbook
If it's a fit, our team investigates the wreck, gathers evidence, coordinates your medical care, and builds the strongest possible case. We only take cases where we know we can help.
We Lead You to Closure
We negotiate hard, litigate when needed, and take cases to trial when an insurer won't pay what your story deserves. You focus on healing — we deliver the resolution.
What's at Stake
The wrong firm costs you far more than money.
The wrong settlement leaves you with unpaid bills, untreated injuries, and unanswered questions for years to come. You don't get a do-over on your story.
At Patterson Law Group, we won't take your case unless we know we can add real value. We might not always tell you what you want to hear — but we will always tell you what you need to hear.
