Functioning as a senior attorney at The Buzbee Law Firm, based in Houston, Texas, Ryan Sterling Pigg brings a wealth of experience and knowledge in personal injury law to the table. He focuses his practice on cases involving commercial vehicles and 18-wheeler accidents, catastrophic personal injury, workplace injuries, explosion incidents and wrongful death.
Ranked among the top personal injury attorneys in Houston, Mr. Pigg has a strong track record of success in representing railroad workers in Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA) lawsuits against prominent railroad companies, including American Railcar Industries (ARI), Amtrak, CSX, Burlington Northern, Kansas City Southern, New Orleans Public Belt, Santa Fe, Union Pacific and Watco. Alongside the founder of the firm, he has handled and played an instrumental role in resolving numerous FELA cases, and secured multimillion-dollar settlements for injured workers.
In addition to his work on FELA cases, Mr. Pigg has considerable experience in handling cases involving 18-wheelers and commercial vehicles that negligently cause accidents resulting in injuries to innocent motorists. He has worked on thousands of commercial vehicle cases, recovering substantial settlements for motorists and their families across Texas and the United States. He has been recognized for his multiple trial verdicts, with inclusion in prestigious publications such as the National Law Journal's Top 50 and the Texas Verdicts Hall of Fame.
Mr. Pigg graduated with honors from Baylor University earning his Bachelor of Arts degree and later received his doctorate in jurisprudence from the University of Houston Law Center. After passing Texas’ bar exam, he was admitted to practice law in the state and the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas in 2013.
