Why Choose Palmer Perlstein?
Palmer Perlstein is the kind of firm a personal injury lawyer hires when they themselves get hurt. The firm focuses on trial-track cases — 18-wheeler accidents where the trucking company has lawyered up, wrongful death cases that need to be proven, and civil rights litigation against police misconduct. They are not a TV-ad volume shop. If your case is going to require expert witnesses, accident reconstruction, and the willingness to actually try the case in front of a Dallas County jury, this firm is built for that. Best fit when liability is contested, damages are large, and the defense team is sophisticated.

What Clients Say
An 18-wheeler t-boned my husband. The trucking company's defense lawyers were brutal. Scott Palmer's team brought in three experts and a reconstructionist and they settled the case for what the policy was worth.
I was beaten during an arrest. Three other lawyers turned the case down. Palmer Perlstein took it federal, got past qualified immunity, and we settled before trial. They believed me.
Lost my son in a commercial vehicle crash. They walked us through every step, never pushed for a quick settlement, and got the trucking company to pay the full insurance limits plus more.
