About Sonia
Sonia Rodriguez has represented only plaintiffs for nearly 20 years. She practices in the areas of personal injury trial and appellate law. She is licensed by the State Bar of Texas and is admitted to practice before the United States Supreme Court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, and each of the U.S. District Courts in Texas. In 2004, she became the first Mexican American woman to obtain a verdict in excess of $2 Million in Val Verde County, Texas.
In 2005, and again in 2006, she was named a “Texas Rising Star” by Texas Monthly and Law & Politics. “Rising Stars” are chosen by their peers as being among the top up-and-coming lawyers (40 years old or younger, or in practice 10 years or less) in the state. Only 2.5 percent of Texas attorneys receive this honor each year!
