About Guy

The law firm of Webb, Stokes & Sparks was established more than 50 years ago by Tom Webb (1926-1996) and Aubrey Stokes (1921-1990), both legends in the field of personal injury law. The firm has continuously provided the highest quality legal services since that time.

Guy Choate would enjoy a world where his specialized legal skills were not needed. In a world without personal injuries, there would be no need for personal injury attorneys.

Guy works for that day. In addition to achieving justice for individual victims, Guy's insistence that truckers obey the law and manufacturers recall products they know are dangerous helps make our roads and homes safer places.

While an injury-free future is unlikely, it is clear accidents and injuries are reduced when those responsible must pay for the harm they inflict. Guy brings uncompromising character, determination, and skill to each case. It is an issue of basic fairness for Guy: We live in an imperfect world, but we still should do our best to avoid harming others and to compensate the injured when mistakes are made.

Guy enjoys statewide respect for his work with the State Bar on issues ranging from court rules and jury charges to personal injury law and ethics. He is a regular speaker at State Bar continuing education programs and other professional seminars. Guy was chosen a Super Lawyer by Texas Monthly Magazine for 2003, 2004, & 2006. He was President of Texas Trial Lawyers Association during the 2005 Legislative Session.
