With over $75 million recovered and 300-plus five-star reviews, the Brownsville practice proves that local representation still matters
There’s a certain type of law firm television commercial that has trained Americans to be skeptical of personal injury attorneys. The cheesy jingles, the promises, the ambulance-chaser stereotypes—they’re hard to shake.
But in Brownsville, a border city roughly six hours south of Dallas, one firm has managed to cut through that noise by doing something deceptively simple: showing up for clients and getting results.
Kenny Perez Law doesn’t have a flashy billboard campaign blanketing the interstate. What it does have is more than 300 five-star Google reviews from actual clients, over $75 million in recoveries, and a reputation in the Rio Grande Valley as the firm people call when an insurance company starts playing games.
“We’re not interested in signing up hundreds of cases and farming them out,” said attorney Kenny Perez, who founded the practice. “Every client who walks through our door is someone’s family member. They’re scared, they’re hurt, and they’re being told by an insurance adjuster that their claim isn’t worth what they think it is. Our job is to change that conversation.”
The firm handles the cases you’d expect from a personal injury practice—car accidents, truck collisions, motorcycle wrecks—alongside slip and fall claims, wrongful death matters, and catastrophic injury cases that can reshape a family’s future overnight. In a region where traffic has intensified alongside population growth, that workload hasn’t slowed down.
Brownsville sits at the southern tip of Texas, a city of roughly 190,000 that serves as a gateway for cross-border commerce and a home base for families who have lived in the Valley for generations. The community is close-knit in ways that larger metros aren’t, which means word travels fast when a lawyer delivers—or doesn’t.
“Your reputation is everything down here,” Perez acknowledged. “You can’t hide behind marketing. People talk. If you do right by someone, their cousin knows, their neighbor knows. That’s how we’ve built this practice.”
The firm’s 300-plus five-star reviews reflect that dynamic. Scroll through them and you’ll find recurring themes: responsiveness, clarity, genuine concern. Clients describe feeling informed throughout the process, a contrast to the horror stories of attorneys who sign cases and disappear.
“At Kenny Perez Law, we believe every injured person deserves a fighting chance,” Perez said. “Insurance companies have entire departments dedicated to minimizing what they pay out. We’re the counterweight to that.”
The firm’s slogan—”Don’t get played—get paid”—might sound like something from one of those commercials. But spend a few minutes reading client testimonials and it starts to feel less like a tagline and more like a statement of purpose.
For Valley residents dealing with mounting medical bills after a wreck or families grieving a preventable death, having a local attorney who understands both the legal system and the community can make a measurable difference. Kenny Perez Law has spent years earning that trust, one case at a time.
