ALEX HORTON
Alex Horton is a Texas personal injury trial lawyer whose practice focuses on serious injury, wrongful-death, maritime, industrial, trucking, and appellate matters. He is Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. His practice is built around direct involvement, careful preparation, and candid advice.
After law school, Alex clerked for Justice Paul W. Green at the Supreme Court of Texas. He then spent fifteen years at an established personal injury firm, where he worked on significant cases involving life-changing injuries and wrongful death and developed substantial trial and appellate experience.
Alex graduated summa cum laude from South Texas College of Law Houston. He served on Law Review and competed on the school’s nationally ranked moot-court team. Before law school, he worked in the Texas Legislature. He is a Texas A&M graduate and an Eagle Scout.
Alex was born and raised in San Angelo and grew up in West Texas. Those roots continue to shape how he practices law: honesty, hard work, straightforward advice, and personal accountability are values he brings to his relationships with clients, co-counsel, and opposing parties.
His background includes maritime and vessel cases, workplace and industrial injuries, trucking and vehicle cases, wrongful-death matters, and personal injury appeals. He has handled matters before the Supreme Court of Texas and appellate courts throughout the state. Other lawyers frequently call on him to assist with legal briefing, dispositive motions, preservation, jury-charge issues, mandamus proceedings, and appeals in significant injury cases.
Clients work directly with Alex throughout the case. His role is to explain the legal and practical choices clearly, stay involved in the work that matters, and provide steady guidance through a process most people never expected to face.
