What Sets Us Apart?
You could take your talents anywhere. We know that. You know that. So, let’s cut to the chase - we're a plaintiff personal injury law firm with over 25 years of experience and a proven track record of success. We have grown into a multi-million-dollar boutique law firm with over 150 team members across six offices in Texas. We take our responsibility to our clients seriously and fight against big insurance companies trying to screw them over. We are aggressive advocates. We will exhaust every option, every avenue, to get our clients what they deserve. Our history of success and long-standing relationships with our clients speak for themselves.
But what sets us apart? Our commitment to top-tier office culture. Across our six office locations, you'll find a team who are defined by their professionalism, enthusiasm, collaboration, and a shared commitment to our social contract. We believe great results start with great people. But don't just take our word for it. See what our team members think!
“There's this real sense that we're all working toward excellence together, and nobody's contribution is too small to matter.”
“DS truly invests in people. They pour into our professional development, encourage personal growth, and constantly evolve, all to better serve our clients and the community."
“Daniel Stark consistently seeks ways to support and develop its team, investing in both our professional growth and personal well-being.”
“This is not a place where you just show up and coast. It is a high-performance environment where people genuinely want to get better, serve clients well, and support each other in the process.”
While we want you to share why you’d be a great fit for our team, we also want to show you why Daniel Stark could be the right place for you. We are deeply invested in our people and their long-term success. Your professional development won’t end after your training period. Your leader will continue to support your development and serve as a resource throughout your career. We invest in our people, and in return, our people invest in each other, our clients, and our mission.
