Hogan Leatherwood: A Relentless Advocate for Houston's Injured

Hogan Leatherwood is more than just a personal injury attorney—he’s a committed advocate for people facing some of life’s hardest moments. As the founder of Leatherwood Law in Houston, Hogan has built a reputation for standing up to powerful corporations on behalf of individuals and families devastated by catastrophic injuries and wrongful deaths. His mission is clear: to fight for justice, restore dignity, and secure the compensation his clients need to rebuild their lives.

Hogan represents clients harmed by the negligent or reckless actions of large companies and institutions. He is widely respected throughout the legal industry as a zealous, relentless advocate—strategic in the courtroom, compassionate with his clients, and unflinching in his pursuit of justice. Known for his tenacity and charisma as a trial attorney, Hogan is deeply committed to making his clients whole again after life-altering tragedies.

With millions of dollars recovered for injury victims, Hogan has handled a broad spectrum of cases—from serious motor vehicle accidents and 18-wheeler accidents to oilfield disasters , offshore incidents , workplace explosions , boating accidents , and complex mass tort litigation. He has particular experience with catastrophic injuries and conditions such as mesothelioma, which are tragically common in Houston’s industrial and energy-heavy regions.

While Hogan has taken on cases across the country—including Texas, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, Florida, New York, New Jersey, Indiana, Kansas, California, Arizona, and New Mexico—his practice remains firmly rooted in Houston. He understands the challenges faced by local workers and families, especially those employed in the city's ports, chemical plants, and refineries . He is admitted to all Texas state courts, the United States District Courts for the Northern, Eastern, and Southern Districts of Texas, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.

Hogan's passion for the law was born in East Texas. Raised in Tyler, he later attended Texas Tech University, earning a Bachelor of Science in Advertising and Marketing. It wasn't long before he felt a strong calling to practice law, leading him to Houston to attend South Texas College of Law. There, his drive to advocate for the injured and wronged began to take shape, ultimately forming the foundation of Leatherwood Law.

Outside the courtroom, Hogan is a proud member of the Houston Trial Lawyers Association, the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, and the State Bar of Texas. When he is not fighting for his clients, he enjoys golfing, barbequing, and spending time with his family and friends.

What sets Hogan apart it is not just his results —it is his unwavering dedication to those he serves. He doesn't just represent clients; he stands shoulder to shoulder with them during the hardest times of their lives, offering not only legal guidance, but genuine support and steadfast advocacy every step of the way.
