Friendswood is a quieter, family-oriented suburb that still produces a steady flow of personal injury cases — most from the commuter corridors connecting it to Clear Lake, NASA / Johnson Space Center, the Texas Medical Center, and downtown Houston.
The town straddles Galveston and Harris counties, which means venue and procedural questions can be more nuanced than in single-county cases. We handle both counties.

What we handle for Friendswood clients
Court venue for Friendswood cases
Most of Friendswood is in Galveston County (county seat: Galveston), but a portion crosses into Harris County. Where a case is filed depends on accident location, party residences, and strategic considerations. We work both Galveston and Harris County venues.
Getting from Friendswood to our Houston office
Take FM 518 West to Highway 288 North, then to US-59 North, then West Loop 610 North. Exit Westheimer and turn right on Fountain View. Roughly 35–45 minutes depending on time of day.
