About William
Biography
Bill Abbott was admitted to the Texas State Bar in 1998. Since that time, he has dedicated his practice to assisting injured Texas workers. Bill leads his team of aggressive workers’ compensation lawyers at Abbott, Clay & Bedoy. Although he has handled many different kinds of cases (including personal injury, employment law, maritime offshore injury cases, longshore claims, and more) Bill focuses his practice primarily on representing injured Texas workers.
Bill Abbott was raised for most of his life in the Houston, Texas area. He received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Austin before attending law school at Texas Tech University. Since 1998 Bill has been licensed to practice in all Texas courts. In 1999, Bill joined the established Ogletree Law Firm, where after becoming a partner, helped grow the firm’s workers’ compensation practice into the largest claimants’ representation firm in the whole state.
Texas workers deserve justice—and Bill Abbott has made it his life’s mission. Since 1998, he’s built one of the state’s strongest workers' comp teams, known for aggressive advocacy, compassion, and real results.
When Texas workers get hurt, Bill Abbott fights back. With decades of experience in workers’ comp law, Bill knows how to beat the denials, deal with insurance companies, and get injured Texans the help they’re owed.
Fighting for injured Texas workers for 25+ years, Bill Abbott leads a fearless team of attorneys at Abbott, Clay & Bedoy. From compensation claims to longshore and offshore injuries, we’ve got your back when the system doesn’t.

Good Guy
I have got to say working with Mr. Abbott was different than others lawyers I have delt with in the past. He doesn't act flashy and he always calls me back, even though it may take him a day to call, he always did. When I came to him I wasn't getting comp like I should and we had to go to a hearing....
