A formidable advocate after a devastating refinery accident

Following a catastrophic burn injury my husband sustained at a Texas refinery, our family was overwhelmed. We interviewed several firms but chose Ryan Zehl based on his specific recognition in plaintiff-side personal injury and product liability litigation. That decision was pivotal. His 21 years of experience, particularly his history with serious burn cases, was immediately evident. He and his team at Zehl & Associates conducted a meticulous investigation, uncovering a critical valve failure the company had tried to obscure. Ryan's strategic approach in pre-trial negotiations was masterful, leveraging his deep knowledge of insurance litigation tactics to secure a settlement that truly provides for my husband's lifelong care. While communication from his associates was sometimes slower than I'd have preferred during the initial evidence-gathering phase, Ryan himself was always accessible for major updates. He is a tenacious trial lawyer who genuinely fights for his clients. We are profoundly grateful for his expertise and the result he achieved for our family.
