About the Firm

Houston Personal Injury and Wrongful Death Lawyer, Insurance Dispute and Business Law Attorneys

Clients come to our Texas law firm to Win.

Our success as trial lawyers stems from our experience trying cases and willingness to devote the extensive time and resources necessary to obtain the greatest reward for our clients. The lawyers at Fitts Zehl, LLP work tirelessly to hold the responsible parties accountable and recover what is often the only available recourse for your injuries — financial compensation. We do this by dedicating the same relentless effort to each stage of the litigation process—from the drafting of the lawsuit to the presentation of our closing arguments to the jury.

By consistently securing victories in and out of the courtroom, we provide our clients with the financial resources needed to carry on with their lives, while deterring the defendants from committing the same careless and negligent actions in the future.

Almost all of our personal injury cases involve injuries that could have been avoided had the proper safety measures been in place. For example, in maritime and Jones Act cases, workers injured on offshore platforms and jack-up rigs are often not provided with the proper safety equipment. Industrial, shipping and port fires or explosions usually occur from human error. Vehicle tire tread separation results primarily from design and production flaws. And injuries involving dangerous and defective prescription drugs are released to the public based on inadequate testing, misinterpretation and withholding of testing information, and errors in tablet and dosage production.
