What Does Board Certification Mean?
We’re often asked, “What is a Board Certified attorney?”
If an attorney has demonstrated special competence in a particular area of law, they can be certified as a specialist by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization (TBLS). Only 1.5% of attorneys in Texas are Board Certified as Specialists in Personal Injury Trial Law by the TBLS.
Understanding Board Certification
Board Certification is a mark of excellence and a distinguishing accomplishment. For an attorney to be Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law, they must meet rigorous standards set by the TBLS. Here’s what it entails:
- Experience: The attorney must have extensive experience in personal injury trial law, having practiced in the field for a significant number of years.
- Competence: The attorney must have demonstrated competence by taking personal injury cases to a jury trial.
- Continuous Education: The attorney must stay abreast of the ever-changing laws affecting personal injury cases by attending seminars and courses regularly.
- Comprehensive Examination: The attorney must pass a comprehensive exam that tests their mastery of laws and procedures for handling personal injury cases.
Why Choose a Board Certified Attorney?
At Roberts & Roberts, it doesn’t cost you any more to hire an attorney who is Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law. But what does that mean for you?

Are All Personal Injury Lawyers the Same?
People often ask if all personal injury lawyers are the same. The answer is no. In Texas, any licensed attorney can call themselves a personal injury attorney. However, not all have the same level of expertise or qualifications.
At Roberts & Roberts, both Randy Roberts and I are Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law. This means we have met the stringent requirements set by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, proving our specialization, competence, and dedication to this area of law.
Consider Your Options
If you or a loved one is injured in an automobile accident, motorcycle accident, or collision with an 18-wheeler, consider the attorney and the law firm you are hiring. Are they a firm that simply advertises handling personal injury cases, or are they a firm made up of Board Certified personal injury attorneys?
Choosing a Board Certified attorney ensures you have an expert with proven experience and specialized knowledge handling your case, which can make a significant difference in the outcome.
