Jerry D. Andrews: The Quarter-Century Practice That Funds Its Own Scholarship

TO OUR READERS: This profile is independent editorial content produced by Awesome Attorneys. Jerry D. Andrews, P.C. did not pay for, commission, sponsor, or review this article, and inclusion in this series cannot be purchased. Nothing here is legal advice, an endorsement, or a recommendation to hire any lawyer; readers should evaluate counsel independently and may verify any Texas attorney’s license and discipline history through the State Bar of Texas at texasbar.com. Facts are drawn from the sources identified in the Methodology section and were verified as of August 2026.

AT A GLANCE

I. A Dallas Personal Injury Practice That Funds Its Own Scholarship

Jerry D. Andrews’s firm publishes a dedicated scholarship page with named past winners — a specific, ongoing community commitment distinct from a one-time sponsorship or vague “giving back” claim many firms make without documentation.

II. More Than 25 Years, One Board Certification

Andrews has represented Dallas-area personal injury clients for more than 25 years and is Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a credential independent directories describe as held by a small number of Texas attorneys. His practice spans a genuinely broad range of injury categories — motor vehicle accidents, workplace injuries for employees of self-insured non-subscriber employers, defective products, and catastrophic injuries including traumatic brain and spinal cord injury.

III. Practice Areas

• Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents
• Workplace injuries, including non-subscriber (self-insured) employer claims
• Defective and dangerous products, including auto parts and pharmaceuticals
• Catastrophic injuries, including traumatic brain and spinal cord injury
• Wrongful death

IV. Case Outcomes

This profile did not locate an independently itemized, case-by-case public results list with specific dollar figures for Andrews as of this research date; that gap is disclosed here rather than filled in. The firm’s specific focus on non-subscriber workplace injury claims — a distinct and more legally complex category than standard workers’ compensation claims — is documented across the firm’s own practice-area materials. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.

V. The Client Voice

No pattern of negative or unresolved public reviews was located for the firm as of this research date. This profile did not locate an independently aggregated public rating (such as an AV Preeminent or Avvo score) for Andrews specifically; that absence is disclosed rather than papered over.

VI. Community and Local Presence

The firm operates and publicizes a scholarship program with a dedicated “Past Winners” page, a specific, documented community investment. The firm serves Dallas, Collin, and Denton Counties, including Cedar Hill, Irving, Carrollton, Farmers Branch, DeSoto, Duncanville, Coppell, Garland, Grapevine, Mesquite, Grand Prairie, Lancaster, Plano, McKinney, and Fort Worth — a genuinely broad North Texas service area.

VII. Credentials and Recognition

Andrews is Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, the state’s official specialty credential, distinct from paid “top attorney” marketing lists. This profile did not locate additional independent peer-review credentials for Andrews as of this research date; that absence is disclosed rather than papered over.

VIII. The Texas Legal Backdrop

Most Texas personal injury claims carry a two-year statute of limitations under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule (Chapter 33): a claimant found more than 50% at fault cannot recover, while a claimant found 50% or less at fault has damages reduced proportionately. Non-subscriber workplace injury claims, a documented part of this firm’s practice, follow different legal rules than standard workers’ compensation claims because non-subscriber employers cannot use certain common-law defenses available under the standard system. None of this is legal advice; consult a licensed Texas attorney about your specific situation.

IX. The Awesome Attorneys Assessment

Jerry D. Andrews’s structural strength is a quarter-century of focused Board Certified practice combined with genuine breadth across motor vehicle, workplace, and product-liability claims, reinforced by a documented, ongoing scholarship program rather than a one-time marketing gesture. For a Dallas-area client with a non-subscriber workplace injury claim specifically — a legally distinct and less commonly marketed category — that documented focus is a real, checkable differentiator.

The honest limitation: this profile did not locate independent, itemized case results or aggregated public ratings for Andrews specifically, so a prospective client should ask directly about recent comparable outcomes during a consultation rather than relying on tenure and certification alone.
