Bill Wells has vast experience in Texas Courtrooms in cases involving injuries and deaths as a result of negligence. "Tort Reform" is a very misunderstood concept that has made recoveries in personal injury cases very challenging in Texas.

Mr. Wells will use his over thirty years of litigation experience to fight for your rights if you have been injured or a family member killed as a result of a wrongdoer's negligence. The cases summarized are a small sampling of the cases handled by Bill Wells. Each case is different, and similar results may not be obtained in your case.
