Hendler Flores Law Attorneys Achieve Recognition in Texas Super Lawyers 2026

In an impressive display of legal talent, three attorneys from Hendler Flores Law, PLLC have been honored with selections to the prestigious 2026 Texas Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists. This recognition speaks volumes about the hard work, dedication, and exemplary service that these professionals bring to the legal field.

The firm’s founder and CEO, Scott Hendler, along with attorney Leigh A. Joseph, gained spots on the Super Lawyers list, while attorney Laura Goettsche earned her place on the Rising Stars list. This annual selection process evaluates the top legal professionals in Texas, and being named is a considerable achievement since it recognizes only a select few in each state — a mere 5% of attorneys make it to the Super Lawyers list, and just 2.5% are designated as Rising Stars.

A Commitment to Justice

Scott Hendler emphasizes the importance of understanding the personal stories behind each client. "Every person – the parents, spouses, children, and friends – who calls our office has a story to share about their loved one," Hendler states. This sentiment lies at the heart of their practice in personal injury law, where they believe in amplifying clients’ voices to combat injustice in the wake of life-altering events.
