Prior to founding Hernandez Sunosky, LLP, Jimmy worked as an insurance defense lawyer for nearly two decades. He represented clients ranging from individuals and doctors to Fortune 500 Companies who were insured by the largest insurance companies and syndicates in the world. During that time, he gained in-depth knowledge of defense strategies and tactics used by insurance companies to minimize, and sometimes eliminate, claims of those injured as a result of the actions of others. This experience allows him to identify unique legal defenses and build a strong case for his injured clients to tell their story. He has the knowledge to anticipate what the insurance company will do and how they will assess and value a case. He uses his experience to apply pressure to force insurance companies to compensate his clients fairly and fully. If settlement is not possible, he uses his trial experience to educate a jury on how his client was wronged.. Jimmy’s work as an attorney has led him to receive many awards, including receiving an AV® Preeminent™ Rating from Martindale-Hubbell®.

She worked multiple jobs as a janitor to provide opportunities for Jimmy and his siblings. At a young age, Jimmy would work alongside his mother helping clean the same school and church he attended. Throughout high school, Jimmy continued to work to help his family. It was normal for him to work during school nights, often beginning a shift when most people were already asleep. He brought the same work ethic to college. While at Texas Tech University, Jimmy worked as a warehouse worker, forklift driver and cook, not only to pay for school, but to live. Despite his busy work and class schedule, he was President of a student organization and a member of the Texas Tech Powerlifting team, winning two individual drug-free national collegiate powerlifting championships.. After earning a Bachelor of Science degree from Texas Tech University, Jimmy worked several jobs while attending graduate school at the University of North Texas. He worked in construction, as a medical assistant, research assistant and even as a janitor cleaning doctors’ offices. He received a Master of Science degree and briefly worked in the nursing home industry before pursuing his law studies at South Texas College of Law Houston. He worked through law school and was mentored by very skilled and experienced lawyers who allowed him to participate in trials as a law student.. Jimmy is truly grateful for his upbringing and the values instilled in him by his mother. Jimmy relies upon this life-long work ethic and life experiences in his work as an attorney representing injured people.

Paul Doyle is not afraid to take on the most challenging cases in the criminal arena. Whether the case is in federal or state court, Paul will defend his client with energy and passion. As you can see by reviewing the results page on this site, Paul is no stranger to success. Many of Paul's clients are successful professionals who have high expectations. Paul embraces expectations and appreciates the unique challenge that each case provides. Paul is known as somebody who will get to the point and will address key issues head on.. Paul's client list includes doctors, lawyers, engineers, professional baseball players, professional basketball players and professional football players. Many of Paul's clients prefer their cases to be handled in a private and efficient manner.. Paul was a prosecutor for 7 years and finished his career as a Major Offender/Special Crimes prosecutor. As a Special Crimes prosecutor, Paul worked directly with law enforcement as their cases were being investigated. Through this experience, Paul was privy to the most innovative techniques used by law enforcement to solve crimes. The knowledge gained by working directly with law enforcement gives Paul the ability to dissect investigations and determine how best to defend a charge. There are two sides to every story/case, the law enforcement version and the version of the person who is being accused. Prosecutors are typically only provided the law enforcement version and it is not until charges are filed that the government is able to receive the "whole" truth. As you can see on Paul's results page, there are many cases that should never have been filed.. Prior to Special Crimes/Major Offenders, Paul was assigned to felony and misdemeanor courts and was tasked with handling the cases that randomly fell into his court. Paul also tried cases as a prosecutor, was involved in the hiring of new prosecutors, and supervised a division of more than 45 prosecutors. This experience gives Paul the insight and ability to present his client's defense in the most favorable light. Many times, prosecutors don't choose the cases they have to prosecute, they are just assigned the case.. Most prosecutors are overworked and do not have the time to do the work that should have been completed by the law enforcement agency that handled the investigation. Paul knows what work needs to be done to shed light on the entire story. As you can see by Paul's results, he also knows how to present his client's story in a manner that is compelling to the individual prosecuting the case.. At a very young age, Paul knew he wanted to be a trial lawyer. Paul’s father was a trial lawyer who would regularly take Paul to the courthouse to meet judges and watch trial. Knowing this at an early age allowed Paul to insure he would have the educational foundation to be the best. He graduated from Rice University with numerous academic and athletic honors and then received his law degree from the University of Texas School of Law, one of the nation’s finest.. Once Paul is hired, the client is represented by Paul. Paul believes communication is essential in the successful resolution of a case. Paul makes it a point to be available and to answer any concerns a client has. While many lawyers have large case loads, Paul maintains a small volume of cases to insure his clients receive the individual treatment they deserve.
