Stewart J. Guss | Houston Personal Injury Lawyer

I recently resolved a case for a single mother whose daughter was getting ready to start college. I did not find out about this until after we settled the case and my client called me in tears telling me about her situation. Her daughter had been accepted to a prestigious university, but she had no way to pay for it. My client confessed that she had been under incredible stress about this, but that the settlement I had obtained for her would be able to pay for her daughter's entire college education. I will admit that I joined my client with tears of joy, and I was so happy I could help play some small part in her daughter's successful future.

For over 20 years I have focused on providing excellent and aggressive legal representation for all of my clients while maintaining the highest standards for customer service in the industry. When you are my client, you are not just a "name" or a "file" but someone that my staff and I care about deeply. In addition to a lawyer, I am also a father, a son, and a brother. I make sure that ALL of our clients are treated the same way I would treat a member of my own family.

Why trying to figure out what lawyer to hire for your case, make sure to "dig deep." Yes, you should review his website, but don't just look at what he or she says about themselves - use the internet and do your own independent research on the attorney. What kind of reputation do they have in the community? Look on their bar page - do they have any disciplinary issues? Look at reviews - do they have a good number of reviews? If so, are they generally positive or negative?

We are happy to provide a free, no obligation telephone consultation for all prospective clients. During that consultation we are generally able to advise the potential client as to what their potential rights and remedies may be, what steps will be required to proceed with their claim, and whether or not we can be of assistance. Even if we can't, we are always happy to try and point folks in the right direction. It is most helpful to us if you have the dates of the incident available, the basic facts, and a brief summary of medical injuries and treatment to date.

Being involved in an accident resulting in personal injuries can be one of the most stressful things in a person's life. We take great pride in helping people ""put their lives back together."" By providing excellent and comprehensive representation and assistance to our clients, we take care of the legal details and allow our clients to focus on their injuries, their treatment, and their healing.

I was raised and educated in Texas and Houston (Clear Lake High School, University of Texas, and University of Houston College of Law.) The great people of the State of Texas have helped me become the lawyer I am today, and I make it a point to pay back my community in any way that I can. My law firm sponsors an annual scholarship to help other young people pursue their educational and professional goals. I also have formed a community grant program, the Houston HUGs, to help recognize those "unsung greats" among us who make Houston a great place to live. We are also proud supporters of the BP MS150, Reach Unlimited, and the Houston Family Arts Center.
