John S. Powell has practiced law in Texas for 40 years. He has represented hundreds of clients in every type of personal injury and wrongful death case, earning justice and compensation for victims through negotiated insurance settlements and jury verdicts. As a criminal defense lawyer, he has defended clients against capital murder charges, as well as all lesser felony and misdemeanor crimes.

John Powell III is an experienced family law attorney, handling everything from complex division of assets to modifications of child support or visitation rights. He also has an LL.M. (master's degree) in health law, and has written and lectured extensively about the Americans with Disabilities Act, and representing disabled persons in claims regarding ADA compliance.  Another aspect of his Master of Laws in Health law is the representation of smaller health care providers in compliance issues involving the federal government, as well as other litigation or administrative actions.

While we have represented clients effectively in many trials, we believe that litigation is not always the right solution. We consult closely with clients to give an honest assessment of what approach is best overall for their goals in light of their case.

We are a father and son practice, each with our own knowledge and focus, working together to provide quality legal counsel to the communities we serve. Contact the experienced Pearland and Galveston lawyers of The Powell Law Firm today to arrange your free 30-minute consultation.
