Recognized in Best Lawyers since 2024 A sixth-generation Texan and the first lawyer in his family, James Amaro founded Amaro Law Firm in 2005 with a clear purpose: to stand up for those who've been wronged when it matters most.
Shortly after founding the firm, James was called to represent individuals and families devastated by the BP refinery explosion in Texas City, Texas. It was a defining moment—one that reinforced his belief that justice isn't about easy wins.
Since then, James has successfully represented thousands of people and businesses across Texas in personal injury claims, business disputes, insurance matters, hurricane claims, and complex commercial litigation. His work has led to landmark Texas Supreme Court rulings and life-changing outcomes for his clients.
