Firm Overview

Weinberg & Weinberg LLP is a litigation firm specializing in and dedicated to the prosecution and trial of personal injury and wrongful death disputes. The Firm has a well-earned reputation for recovering just compensation for those people who have been injured or killed by the negligence or wrongful conduct of others. In our brief history, we have developed a reputation for aggressively and tenaciously representing our clients' interests. The Firm, both its attorneys and staff, are committed to treating each client with respect and care as we guide them through the litigation process. We accept all personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means that you risk nothing financially, as we advance all of the expenses necessary to investigate and present your case to a judge and/or jury. Additionally, we collect no attorney's fees and recover none of our expenses unless we are successful in collecting damages for you. It's simple: we only "win" if you win!

The Firm also represents plaintiffs in a wide variety of other litigation, including bad faith insurance litigation, employment litigation and consumer law. The Firm also represents individuals and businesses, as plaintiffs and defendants, in a wide variety of commercial litigation and other civil litigation matters. Please click onto some of the Areas of Practice inserts to learn more about what we do.

Weinberg & Weinberg LLP was founded by Steven J. Weinberg and Michael Weinberg in 2001. The firm is, in many ways, a merger of its principals' backgrounds and experiences. Steven Weinberg's entire career has been dedicated to the representation of people injured or killed as a result of someone else's negligence or wrongful conduct. Michael Weinberg started out his career at a prominent Houston trial firm, where he primarily represented defendants in a wide variety of civil litigation matters, having later practiced with one of the largest firms in Texas, where he primarily represented clients in a variety of commercial litigation matters.

Drawing on Steven Weinberg's experience in prosecuting personal injury, catastrophic injury and death cases, and Michael Weinberg's experience in general civil litigation matters, the firm was formed, combining the intimacy and hands-on responsiveness of a small firm with the depth and range of experience and ability more typically found in firms several times our size. Thus, while the core of the firm's practice lies in the prosecution and trial of personal injury, catastrophic injury and wrongful death disputes, the firm also represents individuals and businesses, as plaintiffs and defendants, in a wide variety of commercial litigation and other civil litigation matters.

We have the talent and resources to handle virtually any type of case, yet we are small enough to give each and every client the personal and attention they deserve. Our clients do not spend hours on the telephone talking to a battery of paralegals or "legal assistants." Our clients talk to us, the lawyers. In our brief history, we have developed a reputation for aggressively and tenaciously representing our clients' interests in an efficient, cost effective manner, whether it's a simple automobile accident or slip and fall case, a serious automobile or industrial accident involving serious injury or death, or a complex business dispute.
