Want to give a big shout out to Patterson Law Group today...I've known them all for a long time, and had the opportunity to work with them recently. They are an exceptional group of people and attorneys. I was particularly impressed with their client-centered care - they want the very best for their client's whole lives. I was honored to have worked with them and would recommend anyone looking for a great personal injury law firm to look no further. Greg McCarthy on their team is the truth and a real comprehensive expert fighter, and you won't find better, more intentional leaders and attorneys than Travis Patterson, Anna, and Mike. Keep up the incredible work! Merry Christmas everyone. Stay safe! ;)

"I asked how Houstonians could have confidence in a fair contract when the mayor and thirteen out of sixteen members of the city council have accepted donations from the HPOU’s political action committee. (In June, Austin’s mayor and every member of city council took a pledge not to accept union donations.) G****** replied that the HPOU doesn’t get everything it wants.

'What didn’t the union get in the 2018 contract?' I asked.

'I mean, obviously, we wanted more money,' G****** replied, leaning back in his chair and chuckling.

Houston Police Officers’ Union president Joe Gamaldi fiercely defends those accused of using excessive force—even as repeat offenders erode public support for law enforcement overall.
