Houston Firm Secures Spot on Texas Top 10 Lists After $42.5M Settlement
A $42.5 million settlement for the family of a worker killed in an industrial accident has propelled Houston-based Armstrong Lee & Baker LLP onto two 2025 Texas Top 10 lists. The firm secured the fifth spot for wrongful death settlements and the second for premises liability, marking a significant victory in workplace litigation.
The legal battle, documented as Deceased Worker v. Petrochemical Co., centered on claims of workplace negligence, safety violations, and poor maintenance at an industrial facility. This payout is part of a broader track record for the firm, which has recovered over $400 million in total settlements and verdicts for clients across Texas.
Partner C.J. Baker noted that the recognition underscores the firm’s dedication to holding corporate entities accountable for preventable industrial fatalities.
