P. Willis is a graduate of Baylor University (1978) and the South Texas
College of Law (1982). He served as a briefing attorney on the Supreme
Court of Texas (1983-1984), and is currently a member of the State Bar
of Texas, the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, Texas Bar Foundation,

CASES
ACCEPTED
In
most instances, the new client enters into a contingency fee contract
with Willis & Associates. This means that only upon successfully
securing an award or settlement for our client does Willis & Associates
receive its fee and expenses. In essence, "There is no fee for
our services if there is no recovery to you." In some cases, Mr.
Willis will involve additional Board Certified Personal Injury Trial
Lawyers and others as co-counsel to assist in specific cases, especially
in cases where other firms' expertise in a particular matter strengthens
and accelerates the case through the legal system. This assembling of
a team of lawyers for our client does not increase fees to the client
"one red cent." With this team effort, the client's case is
often resolved in a shorter period of time and with more substantial
settlements and trial verdicts for the client.
COMMITMENT
"My
firm is committed to representing individuals and families who have
been the victims of a wrongful death or serious personal injury. Although
monetary compensation cannot heal the emotional and physical scars left
as the result of a serious accident, it can help in many cases to relieve
much of the economic stress and hardship associated with the injury
or loss of a loved one. Many times it is the only means of support and
future security for the injured individual and their family. Litigation
may not bring back a loved one, or heal a serious injury, but it may
serve to help prevent others from having to endure the same loss."
The
selection of a lawyer should be based to a great extent on the proven
track record of that lawyer and the team of attorneys and experts he assembles
to handle your case. Although no one can guarantee the results or final
recovery on any particular case or fact scenario, we do believe that past
performance is a strong indicator of the level of commitment and solid
work ethic that will be brought to bear on serious and complex litigation
in the future.
