I was born and raised in the Houston area.  I left Houston for 4 years to attend college at UT in Austin and then got back as soon as I could.  My parents taught me at a very young age to fight for the little guy.  They taught me the values of respect, hard work, and ethics.. When I decided to go to law school, I chose a school that prides itself on advocacy and litigation skills.  I knew that I wanted to be in the courtroom.  I did not want to be a transactional attorney so I enrolled at South Texas College of Law in downtown Houston, one of the finest law schools for advocacy in the country.  While at South Texas, I participated in several moot court and mock trial competitions and served on the Board of Advocates.. I was very fortunate to begin my legal career working for Howard Nations, one of the preeminent plaintiff attorneys in the country.  Working with Mr. Nations, I obtained invaluable knowledge and experience working on very complex personal injury and wrongful death cases, including automotive products liability, 18-wheeler collisions, serious motor vehicle collisions, industrial accidents, as well as commercial and contractual disputes.. I always knew I wanted to have my own law firm so, after several years of practice with Mr. Nations, I partnered with my law school buddy, Chad Points, to form Denena & Points, PC in 2003.  Since that time, the firm has focused its practice on representing individuals, families, and business entities in complex personal injury and commercial disputes.  We have successfully represented clients against major corporations and insurance companies such as Ford Motor Company, Daimler Chrysler, General Motors, Firestone, Reliant Energy, Bank One, ARE, Inc., Allstate, State Farm, Farmers, Progressive, Geico, and others.. I have obtained countless successful recoveries for my clients through settlements and trials.  Together with my law partner, We have achieved favorable results in cases involving catastrophic 18-wheeler collisions, serious car, motorcycle, and truck collisions, defective and dangerous products, including vehicles, vehicle components, and children’s toys, maritime and Jones Act injuries, and general personal injury, wrongful death, and commercial matters.  Chad and I have represented thousands of clients over our careers.. I am Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. This honor is achieved by less than 2% of the licensed attorneys in Texas.  To become Board Certified, I had to demonstrate an extensive knowledge of personal injury trial law through my education, experience, and substantial involvement in a wide variety of personal injury matters including auto wrecks, truck wrecks, motorcycle wrecks, and defective products.  I had to sit as lead counsel on several cases that were tried to a jury verdict.  I had to be evaluated by my peers, including attorneys with whom I have worked, opposing attorneys, and judges.  Lastly, I had to pass a day-long written examination administered by the Board.   To maintain my Certification, I have to attend personal injury continuing legal education courses to stay current on all of the latest trends and cases involving personal injury trial law.. I have been recognized by H Texas Magazine as a Professional on the Fast Track.  I have published "PowerSurfing The Web: The Internet as a Research Tool for Personal Injury Lawyers," Advanced Personal Injury Course State Bar of Texas 1997 and “Demonstrative Evidence Predicates,”  Ultimate Trial Notebook, State Bar of Texas Annual Convention 2000 and have spoken on a variety of internet and evidence topics for the State Bar of Texas.  I have also submitted a brief to the Texas Supreme Court on the applicability of the hospital peer review privilege.. Together with my beautiful wife, Andrea, we have three wonderful children.  They are a handful and keep us very busy at home.  Andrea is also a licensed attorney, but she chose to temporarily retire from the practice of law when our first child was born so she could devote herself to raising our children.  Her temporary retirement has lasted ten years now, but I could not be happier with her decision.  I have coached my children's sports teams from baseball to basketball and football and thoroughly enjoy working with all kids.. Recently I fought for my neighborhood against the homeowners association's attempt to wrongfully limit the association's liability if an individual was injured or killed at our community pool.  The association tried to require all homeowners to sign a waiver of liability before granting access to the pool for the summer.  I was successful in convincing the association to table the discussion.  As a reward, I was nominated to serve on the pool committee to oversee all community pool operations.  I served 3 years on the committee.. Andrea and I are active members of First United Methodist Church of Pearland and have participated in adult bible studies to strengthen our faith.  Our children have all gone through the Methodist preschol program and Andrea has taught Vacation Bible School for the past several summers.. I am licensed to practice in all state courts in Texas and in the United States District Courts for the Southern and Northern Districts.  I am a member of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, the Attorneys Information Exchange Group, and the American Association for Justice.

I represent plaintiffs who have been hurt. I am board certified in Personal Injury Trial Law and handle catastrophic personal injury cases, but I also practice construction, securities, and complex commercial litigation, for companies and individuals.. I am a native Houstonian and attended St. Thomas High School where I currently serve on the board. I went to Harvard and graduated with high honors, magna cum laude, in 2004. At Harvard, I served as Historian of the Harvard Political Union, the College's debating society, and as Secretary of Harvard CHANCE, a group dedicated to mentoring and tutoring students from Cambridge Rindge and Latin School. While participating in the leadership of CHANCE, I also helped two recently-immigrated students prepare for their English as a Second Language exam. After graduating from college, I came back to Texas for law school, finishing with Honors from the University of Texas School of Law in 2007. During my time there, I served as Development Editor of The Review of Litigation and as Chair of the Career Services Committee of the Thurgood Marshall Legal Society. In my final year, I participated in the school’s first Supreme Court Clinic. We convinced the United States Supreme Court to review our client's case during a term in which the Court agreed to hear only 78 of the 8,517 cases filed.. After graduation, I returned to Houston to clerk for the Honorable Jerry E. Smith of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. During my time with Fifth Circuit, I worked on cases ranging from insurance law to administrative law to one of the most watched white-collar criminal cases of the 21st century. I then worked for two years at the Houston trial firm that pioneered contingent-fee commercial litigation, handling bet-the-company litigation.. I am active in the community as a member of the local and state bar associations and the local, state, and national trial lawyer associations. I currently serve as a member of the State Bar's Computer and Technology Section Council, the Houston Lawyer magazine's editorial board, and the Houston Bar Association's Law Week Committee.. When I am not working on behalf of my clients, I am active with travel, book collecting, and trying new and interesting restaurants.

I provide both litigation and legal counseling services to individuals and businesses.. My litigation practice focuses primarily in the areas of commercial litigation, employment litigation, insurance litigation, and professional liability law. I have represented both plaintiffs and defendants in cases involving breach of contract, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, copyright infringement, theft of trade secrets, enforcement of non-competition agreements, mechanics’ liens, violations of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, securities and failed investment expectations, business disparagement and civil conspiracy, professional malpractice, and insurance coverage disputes.. I have tried numerous cases, ranging from one day bench trials to multi-week jury trials. I have also participated in many hearings at which live testimony has been taken (for example, hearings on applications for temporary injunction, motions for contempt, and motions challenging expert qualifications). My trial experience also includes private arbitration.. In the areas of legal counseling and business transactions I regularly assist clients in the following areas:

I joined The Alfred Firm in 2025. For the past 20 years, I have had the pleasure of working on behalf of hundreds of clients in seeking the justice they deserve and are owed. I am also Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.. I began my career in law representing companies but realized immediately that my passion is helping people. Often times, an individual comes to our office as a last resort after being rejected, ridiculed and treated with little or no respect by the company that is responsible for their injuries.. At The Alfred Firm, it is my job as an attorney to be the voice in the courtroom for those severely injured. A voice with compassion, integrity and understanding. Often, the greatest feeling of satisfaction I have received after trying a case to a jury or securing a settlement for my client is when the client considers me a friend.. Whether a phone call a few years later just to say hello or a simple note letting me know how I was able to help change their life for the better, I know I am following my passion because I am helping people- I am helping friends.. A native Texan, I grew up in Houston, Texas and later graduated from Texas A&M University. Growing up, I was active in the Boy Scouts and attained the highest honor, Eagle Scout. While attending college, I was a member of the Corps of Cadets and held numerous leadership positions within the Corps and other academic organizations. I earned my law degree from South Texas College of Law where I was active in the mock trial program.. Following law school, I began my law practice at a national defense firm where I successfully represented Fortune 500 companies in product liability, employment, and mass tort. I soon realized in 2007 that my passion was representing individuals and families injured as a result of the negligence of companies or someone else. I take pride in being one of the few who are looking out for the individual's rights and not the bottom line.. I have obtained significant verdicts and settlements for my clients involving offshore injuries, trucking collisions, dangerous products, business litigation matters, and other significant general personal injury and wrongful death cases.

I have been practicing law since my third year in law school.  It was then when I secured my first dismissal in a criminal case.  The client's face coupled with the feeling of satisfaction that I receiveed sparked a fire inside of me that gets stronger with every positive result.  I am Results driven and realistic with client's cases.  My goal is to provide you with top notch service. If you are not happy with my service then neither am I.  Let me fight for you and show you a lawyer that you can actually like. #CUINCRT

I have been practicing law since 1981, having started at Vinson & Elkins right out of law school at the University of Texas.  I am a very active trial lawyer, having tried over 350 cases to jury verdict, a number that real trial lawyers would recognize as meaningful.  I'm married to Colleen Cullen Akers, the daughter of a legendary trial lawyer, Dick Cullen.  I have three wonderful children, one of whom is a criminal defense lawyer who is already becoming well regarded among his peers.  We spend a great deal of our spare time with church and charitable activities through various groups, but mostly through the Order of Malta, a holy order of the Catholic Church in which I am a Knight.

I have been drawn to the law since before I remember.  I pursued a law degree from South Texas College of Law in Houston graduating in 2004.  I have represented numerous clients, from private indviduals to large corporations.  My specific focus is on personal injury and general business litigation.

I grew up poor but I figured out early on that education was the way out of poverty.  I always did well in school and, from the third grade on, I made up my mind I was going to become an attorney and help people.  Today, after many years of practice, I still have a burning desire to help the underdog and advance causes of social justice.   To me, the accident victim is the underdog in every case. He finds himself in debt with hospital bills, undable to work becauase of his injuries, and yet the adjuster won't even return his calls.  I get great satisfaction knowing I can level the playing field and get the adjuster's attention as soon as I enter the case.. When I am not seeking justice for my clients, I am either relaxing at home with my wife, traveling, or doing things with our grown twin daughters.  I love to read biographies and have a serious interest in American and Texas history.  I also enjoy spending time on my farm, tending to the land and riding and training my horses.

I grew up in North East Texas before coming to Houston to study law. After graduating from law school I began to practice law on my own and have since had the opportunity to help hundreds of clients deal with personal injury matters of all kinds. I truly enjoy what I do.

I grew up in Houston and attended Memorial High School before joining the United States Marine Corps. While enlisted I received my bachelor’s degree from Chapman University in California. After being Honorably Discharged, I returned to Houston and began working in the oil and gas industry. I went on to earn a master’s in business administration and Juris Doctorate at the University of Houston.. Over the past decade, I have aggressively represented clients injured through the negligence of others. My practice focuses on personal injury, including transportation and construction litigation. I am currently licensed to appear in all courts in Texas and before the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of Texas.

I graduated from Concordia University at Austin with a Bachelor of Arts in kinesiology.   I went on to attend the Thurgood Marshall School of Law, where I participated in moot court activities.  Soon after graduation, the Intense Trial Advocacy program at the University of Notre Dame Law School invited me to participate, which taught me invaluable trial skills and techniques. I have since been honored with an invitation from Notre Dame to assist in the very same program, and look forward to giving back to an initiative in which I strongly support.. During the California-based American Board of Trial Advocates Conference, I served as a witness in an ABOTA seminar. This was a huge honor as only the best of the best attorneys receive invitations to participate in this prestigious event.. In my first year of practice, I played an integral role in obtaining 18 million dollars in settlements for our firm which includes two wrongful death claims and four premises liability claims.. In the summer of 2014, I was honored with an invitation to attend the ABOTA National Trial College, in which I successfully attended and completed.. In my spare time, I enjoy the great outdoors, rooting for the Notre Dame football team and Houston local teams with my college sweetheart and our two sons.  I also volunteer with the Archidiocese of Galveston-Houston.

I co-founded Sutliff & Stout, PLLC, a Houston Injury & Accident Law Firm, because I wanted to help real people with real problems. Raised in a small West Texas town, I was taught the value of hard work, determination, fairness and helping others. My early interest in the law was inspired by my greatest role model, my father. As the son of an attorney and former State Court District Judge, I learned as a child that through the legal system you can help folks stand up for themselves and hold irresponsible people and companies accountable for their actions.. After graduating high school, I attended the University of Mississippi where I earned a degree in just three and a half years. I then enrolled in law school at South Texas College of Law in Houston, Texas and earned a doctor of jurisprudence in just two and a half years.. Upon completing law school, I worked as a trial attorney for several large law firms, including Phelps Dunbar and Chamberlain Hrdlicka. While working at these large law firms, I represented Fortune 500 companies, mid-sized businesses and large insurance companies. Having learned how large corporations and insurance companies operate, I decided to leave the practice at the large firm and focus on personal injury litigation.

I am a first generation American and lifelong Houstonian.  My parents emigrated from Europe to the United States in the 1960's, and realized the American dream. Today, I fight to keep the American dream alive for my clients whose last resort may be a trial by jury.. 100% of my practice is devoted to helping victims in injury and death cases.  I do not represent insurance companies or corporations.. I am Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization ("TBLS"), a certification held by less than 2% of all attorneys in Texas.  What does "Board Certified" mean?  Click here for the answer provided by the TBLS.  Why choose a Board Certified lawyer?  The TBLS recommends hiring a Board Certified lawyer for several reasons.  For example, the TBLS states Board Certification is a "mark of excellence" and a "distinguishing accomplishment."I am a member of The Texas Association of Civil Trial and Appellate Specialists.I author a blog on accident and injury issues which is updated on a weekly basis:  I have obtained significant recoveries for victims in cases involving dangerous and defective products, offshore accidents including Jones Act claims, 18 wheeler and other commercial truck and vehicle accidents, industrial plant accidents and other work injuries, brain injuries, and paralysis.Some of my more recent results include:. I began my law practice with the international law firm of Shook, Hardy & Bacon, one of the largest law firms in the world. At this firm, I worked on product liability lawsuits brought against the major tobacco and pharmaceutical companies, and worked on a wide variety of commercial matters.. I earned my law degree from the University of Houston Law Center, where I was an Associate Editor of the Houston Law Review.  I earned my bachelor's degree in Finance, with Honors, from the University of Texas at Austin.. I live in Houston, Texas, with my wife Ofelia and my two children, Nikola and Isa.

I am the only person in my graduating class at Harvard Law School, that I know of, representing injured individuals.  I began my career representing large corporations, but I had a few clients that were individuals (not companies) with serious problems.  I loved helping them, and now I do this full-time.  I am hardworking, compassionate, and agressive in representing my clients.. Unlike some other attorneys that litigate, I am a real trial lawyer. I love being in Court.  When you hire me, you hire someone that is ready to go the distance if you are not treated fairly.

I am born and raised in Texas. My clients are very important to me. I do everything I can to help them and make sure their rights are protected and strive to achieve the most favorable result possible for each of them. Although I have recently focused more on other areas of law, I have extensive family law experience from my time running the civil side of a firm in San Antonio so this will relate to anyone wishing to hire me to do a mediation. Call me.

I am a trial lawyer dedicated to helping executives and others protect their rights. You worked hard for your position, salary, and benefits (stock, health insurance, etc.), and I'll work just as hard to protect them. Since 1994, our Firm has negotiated thousands of settlements, including severance packages, for executives, "c"-level officers, senior-level management, and others. You will want a seasoned trial lawyer handling your negotiations from the beginning so that you are fully protected in the event you find yourself in litigation -- which is typically an avenue of last resort. You will also want an attorney undaunted by the people trampling your rights. I have taken the depositions of CEOs, judges, mayors, police chiefs, company owners, chairmen of boards of directors, and others who oftentimes act like they are above the law. This experience is a reality check for many when they are called to task under oath and the truth is exposed. Since graduating from South Texas College of Law in 1993, I'd say that, other than negotiating settlements, the cross examination of witnesses (at trial and at deposition) is my favorite thing to do.Of equal import, our Firm has a great reputation among employment defense lawyers in Texas and across the United States. We have worked hard since establishing the Firm in 1994 to earn and protect our good name, so we know what's at stake when your employer attempts to take yours from you. Although some of our case successes are listed on this web site, feel free to call me to discuss our Firm's specific experience handling cases involving issues such as yours. For example, just recently I won a $3.2 million sexual harassment verdict against a former judge. For that victory, I was named "Litigator of the Week" by Texas Lawyer. I also have the honor of having handled a whistleblower lawsuit involving the City of Houston, Texas, which resulted in what I believe is the largest such jury verdict against the City. My client, Sam Levingston, was awarded in excess of $1.2 million, plus attorney's fees. I have also successfully handled multi-state class action claims against Starbucks and Brinker International. These are not meant to be fully inclusive, nor as guarantees of success, but are a reflection of the commitment I make to each case I accept. Whether your issue involves Sarbanes-Oxley, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, state-enacted whistleblower laws, discrimination, breach of employment contracts, or wage violations (including class actions), I will dedicate the Firm's resources to protect your rights.Although I was born in Chicago, the fine State of Texas has been my home since 1977. I am licensed to practice law in Texas, and in other federal jurisdictions. If a case involves people or issues in other states, we'll travel or retain local counsel to ensure we are on a level playing field. No matter what you decide, I want you to find counsel with whom you fit. You should select a law firm with deep, relevant experience. Please call or email me so that we can explore whether Shellist Lazarz Slobin, LLP can be of assistance.

I am a native Texan, raised in an East Texas town called Warren.  My wife is Tiffany, and we have two young sons named Jaxon and Ford.  We live in Kingwood, Texas, and our kids attend public school in the district for which my wife works.. I attended the Warren schools from kindergarten through 12th grade and graduated valedictorian in my class.  I then attended Lamar University in Beaumont on an academic scholarship and graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor's in political science and an English minor.. In 1998, I began teaching and coaching.  During the next nine years I taught primarily English and served as head basketball coach and tennis coach in Texas high schools.. In 2007, I quit teaching and began attending the Texas Tech School of Law on a full academic scholarship.  In 2010, I graduated summa cum laude, passed the bar, and was admitted to practice law in Texas.. Since then, I have had the honor to work with fantastic lawyers in Lubbock, Beaumont, and Houston, where I have been since 2012.  I work for Mark Lanier, who is regarded by many as the best trial lawyer in the nation.  I work primarily for our briefing team in the Issues and Appeals section.  In that role, I have been fortunate enough to prepare legal briefing in numerous complex matters, including antitrust, general commercial litigation, international arbitration disputes, pharmaceutical and medical device cases, general personal injury, and many more.  In many of these matters, I have argued the issues, dispostive and non-dispositive, at the hearing or oral argument.. As a longtime cancer survivor, I know what it is like to look death in the eye.  I believe that surviving cancer gave me a faith in God and a strength that makes me fear nothing.  In my practice, I never fear a task or opposing counsel, and I always work as hard and as intelligently as possible to further our clients' interests.

I am a Houston criminal defense attorney with over 25-years of experience practicing law which includes 6-years as a prosecutor, and I have handled thousands of drug possession cases and DWI cases. My practice is dedicated to defending people charged with Assault, DWI, and Possession of Marijuana or Possession of Controlled Substances.

I am a former police officer who has dealt with both minor and major crimes. As a former police officer, I learned how to investigate a crime, a crime scene, interview witnesses, and evaluate a case. I believe that this former experience has enhanced my ability to work an injury case.

While in law school, Mr. Hadi interned with The Gutierrez Law Firm, a prominent personal injury law firm in South Texas, under the guidance of Baldemar Gutierrez. In this position, he learned the tools in order to best represent clients of personal injury claims; the need to vigorously advocate for injured clients while protecting their best interest-the experience at this internship provided the framework for The Hadi Law Firm.As a dedicated intern at The Gutierrez Law Firm, Mr. Hadi demonstrated an equal commitment to his studies allowing him to obtain enough credits in advance of his graduating class in order to sit for the February 2009 Texas Bar Exam.
