Practice Areas

Car Accident 40%

Collisions across Fort Bend County — US-59, Highway 6, the Grand Parkway. Cases turn on the CR-3 report and treatment documented from the first visit. Texas law does not require you to give the insurer a recorded statement. Free consultation.

21 years

40%
Trucking Accident 25%

18-wheeler cases run on federal carrier rules. The proof — electronic logs, maintenance and dispatch records — sits with the trucking company and is not kept forever. The first weeks decide what evidence still exists. Tried in Richmond.

21 years

25%
Wrongful Death 20%

Texas splits these in two: a wrongful death claim for the spouse, children and parents, and a survival claim belonging to the estate. They are pleaded differently. Deadlines can run shorter than two years. Fort Bend County.

21 years

20%
Personal Injury 15%

I represent injured people only, never insurers. A documented claim covers more than the ER bill: follow-up care, therapy, lost wages, future treatment, mileage. You owe no attorney's fee and no case expenses unless we recover for you.

Great Experience, super helpful

Choosing a personal injury attorney after my accident was one of the more stressful decisions I’ve had to make. Joshua Estes made it easy. They listened, explained the process without talking down to me, and laid out realistic options instead of making big promises. Throughout the case their office s...tayed in touch, answered questions promptly, and never left me wondering what was happening. They pushed back on the insurance company and negotiated a settlement that let me move forward. What stood out most was that they treated my case like it mattered, not like one file in a stack. I would recommend Joshua Estes without hesitation to anyone dealing with an injury claim.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
