At Baumgartner Law Firm, results are not a talking point — they are a track record. For over 40 years, Houston personal injury attorney Greg Baumgartner has gone up against some of the largest trucking companies, insurance carriers, and corporate defendants in Texas, and won. The case results on this page represent real clients, real injuries, and real money recovered — not estimates, not averages, but actual settlements and verdicts obtained on behalf of Houston accident victims.

We have recovered millions of dollars for clients seriously injured in truck and 18-wheeler accidents, car accidents, wrongful death cases, catastrophic injuries, burn injuries, and daycare accidents across Houston and throughout Texas. In case after case, insurance companies denied responsibility — and we proved them wrong.

What separates these results from the typical personal injury firm is the willingness to go to trial. Many lawyers settle quickly and cheaply to close files. Greg Baumgartner prepares every case as if it is going in front of a jury — and defendants know it. That reputation is why insurance companies routinely pay our full demand rather than face us in a Houston courtroom.

If you or someone you love has been seriously injured, these results show what is possible when the right firm fights for you. Your case deserves the same commitment.
