Biography

About Les Pickett

With more than three decades of experience, Les Pickett knows how to quickly and efficiently evaluate claims and lawsuits to assist his clients in deciding whether the matter should be resolved early or taken through trial. When trial is necessary, Les has experience in state and federal court, in front of judges and juries, and in appellate courts. Not cowed by plaintiff-friendly venues, Les tried his first jury trial case in Beaumont, Texas and has litigated cases from Orange to El Paso and throughout Texas.

Les understands and maintains long, time-tested partnerships with his clients, giving him a deep understanding of the people, the business model, and the risk appetite for the companies he works closely with. He actively engages his clients in all phases of litigation, ensuring that their needs are addressed with an eye toward their business goals. Les understands that forging the relationship between attorney and client yields the best result in what is often an unpleasant experience.

Les focuses his practice on complex personal injury, trucking and transportation, insurance, construction defect, premises liability, and other civil litigation matters. He devotes a significant portion of his practice to insurance coverage cases and the attendant litigation of those matters including hundreds of property damage cases, both residential and commercial, from hurricane, hailstorm, windstorm, fire, and flood loss.

Les has also been selected for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America for Insurance Law each year since 2013.
