Ryan Hamilton Zehl

Ryan Hamilton Zehl is a Trial Lawyer who’s recovered over $1 Billion in verdicts and settlements for clients across Texas and the United States. In addition to being featured in a cover story in Texas Super Lawyers, Ryan’s record-setting victories have received national media attention, distinguished him as one of the leading trial lawyers in the state, and qualified him for lifetime membership in both the “Million Dollar Advocates Forum” and the “Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum,” organizations limited to less than 1% of the top trial lawyers in the country.

After graduating in the top 5 percent of his law school class, Ryan worked as a briefing attorney for Justice Scott Brister of the Texas Supreme Court. When his term with the Court expired, Ryan joined Gardere’s litigation group, where he quickly distinguished himself as an aggressive trial lawyer in complex personal injury, appellate and commercial cases.
