Personal Injury Attorneys in Houston, TexaS
PATRICK O'HARA
Attorney at Law
Years of experience have taught Mr. O'hara that personal injury is just that — personal. Every case is different, and every person who gets hurt has different needs. That’s why he works on a case-by-case basis. Mr. O'hara offers a personalized approach to every client, but the overarching goal remains the same: to seek justice on behalf of his clients.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?
Because our approach changes on a case-by-case basis, various clients we’ve had over the years see us in different ways. Some clients — for instance, those whose cases we’ve settled outside of court — tend to see us as efficient and knowledgeable. Others — primarily those whose cases we’ve taken to trial — see us as aggressive and difficult to intimidate.
If you haven’t guessed it already, we're not afraid to take a case to trial. In fact, the courtroom is where we feel most at home, and according to several of our former colleagues, the place where we really shine.
Throughout our careers, there have been many occasions in which it was our team on one side of the negotiation room and a full panel of insurance attorneys on the other. But we’ve never allowed such opposition to deter us or derail the case we're presenting.

Big Or Small, Your Case Matters
Ambitious attorneys love taking on larger, more challenging cases as they progress in their careers. We’d like to say that we're no exception, but that’s not entirely true. You see, we’ve sought out big, difficult cases from Day 1 of our careers.
Patrick's first trial, in fact, was a very serious matter in which he represented a client suffering from mesothelioma. Despite the opponent having quite a bit more experience than he had at that point in time, he persevered and won the case for his client. We just can’t help it — standing up for clients in need is what we do, and we do it well.
We Don’t Cut Corners. We pride ourselves on overcoming complex legal obstacles, but we don’t want that to discourage you from calling if your case is on the other end of the spectrum. People facing even the simplest, most straightforward personal injury concerns have the right to work with an experienced attorney who’s looking out for their best interests — and that’s exactly what we provide.
So, whether your insurance company is giving you trouble or you’re looking to sue an internationally renowned drug company, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
