From the Texas Trial Lawyers Association news release.
I am a Dallas, Texas lawyer who has had the privilege of helping thousands of clients since 1971 in the areas of Personal Injury law and Social Security Disability.
The title of this blog reflects my attitude toward those government agencies and insurance companies that routinely mistreat injured or disabled people.
