Attorney George DeVera and Linda Segovia were amazing throughout the whole process, anytime I had a question or concern they were quick to respond. — Olivia Morales

About a year ago I took a very bad fall over a forklift not properly secured at a large chain store. I had serious facial bruising that required stitching, painfully bruised ribs, and other soft tissue distress. I engaged Thomas J Henry Law firm because of their reputation in Texas. It took some time but my attorney George DeVera and his paralegal, Linda Segovia worked very hard for me and kept me informed throughout the case. He used ZOOM virtual meetings with me, the company, and the mediator to close and get the best settlement possible. It was worth the wait. Because of Mr. DeVera’s patience and skills, I received a much higher settlement than I expected. I highly recommend Thomas J. Henry’s law firm because of their very capable and highly experienced attorneys like Mr. DeVera and the results he got for me. — Debra Pierce
