Armstrong Lee and Baker LLP

Armstrong Lee and Baker LLP describes itself as a trial firm that prepares every case as if it will go before a jury. Its Our Firm page states the firm began with a vision in a small study room at the University of Houston Law Center in 2011, where Scott Armstrong and Joshua Lee were classmates. After graduation Scott worked at plaintiffs' firms in Texas while Joshua worked in complex litigation and investigations in New York City; Joshua returned to Houston in 2015, and the page states the firm officially opened its doors in August 2017. It says C.J. Baker joined as a partner in 2021, and that the firm has grown to more than 20 accomplished lawyers and over 70 dedicated staff members serving clients across Texas.

Scott Armstrong, Joshua Lee and C.J. Baker are listed as partners. Other attorneys named on the site include Kathleen Banks, Hannah Bowersmith, David Bradle, Emma Coomes, Douglas S. Cooper, Ryan Fischbeck, Matthew Franks, Laura Gomez Duarte, Camille Gonzalez, Adam Grable, Kai Henderson, Cianne Jimenez, Forrest Kroschel, Jessica E. MacMurtrie, Cullen McDonald, Shruti Modi, Savannah Oommen, Taylor Pace, Clint Reed, Candice Schwager, Kelly Viktorin and Ryan Wagner.

Armstrong Lee and Baker LLP publishes two office addresses. The Houston office is located at 2800 N Loop W Ste. 900, Houston, TX 77092. The Dallas office is located at 5646 Milton St, Ste. 415, Dallas, TX 75206. The phone number for both is 832.402.6637, and the site states "We are available 24/7 to speak with you." No weekday opening and closing hours are published anywhere on the site, so the only statement about hours is that 24/7 availability line for phone contact.

The locations page says the firm's Texas personal injury attorneys serve clients across the entire state. City pages are published for Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Tyler, San Antonio, Austin, Midland and Odessa. The counties listed as areas served are Harris, Dallas, Tarrant, Williamson, Angelina, Bell, Bexar, Brazoria, Brown, Cameron, Collin, Denton, Dimmit, Duval, El Paso, Fort Bend, Hidalgo, Hunt, Jack, Jefferson, Johnson, Galveston, Lubbock, Martin, Matagorda, Maverick, Midland, Montgomery, Newton, Nueces, Orange, Parker, Reagan, Rusk, San Patricio, Starr, Travis, Tyler, Upton, Wise, Zapata and Zavala.

To contact Armstrong Lee and Baker LLP, the published phone number is 832.402.6637 and the contact page also writes it as 832-402-6637. The site offers a free case evaluation form asking for first name, last name, phone, email and a message, and a longer home-page form that also asks what type of accident caused the injury, whether it happened over two years ago, whether the person was found at fault, and whether the case was settled. The site says the firm is available 24/7 to speak with callers and that Spanish is spoken.

The firm's Our Process page sets out five published steps. First, an initial consultation by phone with an intake specialist who asks questions about the injury and circumstances. Second, document collection, where the firm asks for accident reports, pay stubs, medical records and other relevant paperwork. Third, a prompt case evaluation: the page states that within 24 hours of receiving the necessary paperwork the firm will reach out to say whether it can assist with the case. Fourth, if the case is accepted, the firm sends a representation agreement setting out the terms of representation, which the client reviews and signs. Fifth, immediate case action once the agreement is signed.

Armstrong Lee and Baker LLP publishes a dedicated Houston non-subscriber lawyer page explaining Texas work injury law. The page states that under Texas law employers do not have to purchase workers' compensation insurance for their employees, and that employers who take advantage of this are called "non-subscriber" employers. It names Walmart, Home Depot, Amazon and Target as examples of large Texas employers that the page says do not carry, or subscribe to, workers' compensation insurance.

The page explains how the firm says these cases differ. In a standard Texas workers' compensation claim, the worker is entitled to medical benefits and wage loss benefits and fault does not matter, but the employer is shielded from a negligence lawsuit. The page states that non-subscriber work injury cases do not have that lawsuit protection, so an employee can file a lawsuit against the employer, and that unlike a regular workers' compensation case an injured worker in a non-subscriber case can also seek pain and suffering damages. It describes non-subscriber cases as similar to other negligence cases such as car and truck collisions, slip and falls and defective products, requiring proof that the employer violated a duty of care and caused the injury.
