Michael Simcoe Achieves Board Certification in Personal Injury Trial Law

HOUSTON, April 9, 2025 — Terry Bryant Accident & Injury Law is thrilled to announce that attorney Michael Simcoe has officially received Board Certification in Personal Injury Trial Law from the Texas Board of Legal Specialization (TBLS). This prestigious certification is not easily attained, and it signifies Simcoe's status as a leading expert in his field, a comparison that only around 2% of attorneys in Texas can claim.

The Journey to Board Certification

Gaining Board Certification from the TBLS is a hallmark of excellence in legal practice. It requires a rigorous demonstration of an attorney's competency and professionalism. To qualify, attorneys must meet a set of demanding criteria, including:

• - Practice law full-time for a minimum of five years as an active member of the State Bar of Texas.
• - Achieve a minimum of three years in personal injury trial law, dedicating at least 25% of their efforts to that specific area.
• - Successfully litigate at least 10 personal injury trial cases that meet substantive requirements.
• - Obtain qualified references from judges and lawyers within their legal community.
• - Complete 60 hours of TBLS-approved continuing legal education focused on personal injury trial law.
• - Satisfy the TBLS standards for attorney certification.
• - Pass a comprehensive 6-hour examination covering personal injury trial law.

This certification is not just a testament to knowledge; it also reflects a deep commitment to continual professional development and outstanding legal practice. Once certified, the credential is valid for five years, after which attorneys must reapply and showcase their ongoing engagement with the field, recognition from peers, and further legal education.
