Here's a bio for Trey Morris following your style guide:
Trey Morris co-founded Morris & Dewett Injury Lawyers in 2001 and has spent over two decades handling complex personal injury cases. He earned his Bachelor of Arts from Louisiana State University and his Juris Doctorate from Southern University Law Center. He is licensed to practice in Louisiana and Texas.
Mr. Morris secured a $2,043,000 jury verdict in federal court in October 2022. The case involved underinsured motorist coverage after a rollover crash caused multi-level disc injuries.

The firm has obtained multiple seven, eight, and nine-figure verdicts and settlements, including a $409 million wrongful death verdict, one of Louisiana's largest personal injury awards. The case portfolio includes results in commercial vehicle accidents, workplace injuries, wrongful death, and catastrophic injury cases.
