Your Trusted Legal Advocates in Hall County: A Foundation of Trust and Expertise
At Attorney911, our foundation is built upon deep legal knowledge, extensive experience, and an unwavering commitment to our clients. Our managing partner, Ralph Manginello, and associate attorney, Lupe Peña, lead our team with distinct yet complementary expertise that forms the backbone of our firm. Each attorney brings a unique set of skills and a wealth of experience, ensuring that whether your case involves complex personal injury claims or intricate criminal defense matters, you receive stellar representation.
Ralph Manginello: Over Two Decades of Unyielding Advocacy
Ralph Manginello, our managing partner, has been a practicing attorney since 1998, founding his own personal injury law firm in 2001. His passion for helping people ignited the vision for Attorney911, driven by the belief that individuals facing legal emergencies deserve immediate, aggressive, and professional help from someone they can trust.
Born in New York but raised in the Memorial area of Houston from the age of five, Ralph’s deep Texas roots ground his understanding of our state’s communities and legal landscape. His educational journey took him from the University of Texas at Austin for his bachelor’s degree in Journalism to South Texas College of Law Houston for his Juris Doctor. This background equipped him not only with legal acumen but also with exceptional communication skills crucial for trial advocacy and client relations.
Ralph’s distinguished career includes admission to the Texas State Bar, the New York State Bar Association, and the United States District Court, Southern District of Texas. His professional memberships include the Houston Bar Association and the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association (HCCLA), signaling his elite capabilities in criminal defense, particularly within the federal system. Ralph’s involvement in the BP Texas City explosion litigation further underscores his expertise in handling highly complex personal injury cases against massive corporate entities.
His personal life, rooted in his family with his wife, Kelly Hunsicker, and their three children, RJ, Maverick, and Mia, fuels his professional dedication. Ralph’s interests outside of law, including basketball, golf, running, and working out, demonstrate a disciplined approach that translates directly into his legal practice—always striving for excellence and committed to achieving robust outcomes for our clients.
Lupe Peña: Insider Knowledge from the Other Side
Lupe Peña, our associate attorney, brings a formidable blend of experience and insight to Attorney911. A third-generation Texan born and raised in Sugar Land, Lupe’s connection to Texas runs deep, tracing back to the historic King Ranch. This background fosters a profound appreciation for Texas’s diverse communities, including those in Hall County.
Lupe’s journey began with a B.B.A. in International Business from Saint Mary’s University in San Antonio. After spending several years in finance, he transitioned to law, driven by a desire to make a more direct impact on people’s lives. Graduating from South Texas College of Law Houston, like Ralph, Lupe was admitted to the Texas State Bar in 2012 and also practices in the United States District Court, Southern District of Texas.
A pivotal aspect of Lupe’s experience, and a significant advantage for our clients, is his background working for a national defense firm. This experience provided him with invaluable “firsthand knowledge of how large insurance companies value claims.” He learned their tactics, their strategies for minimizing compensation, and their negotiation approaches. This insider perspective is crucial when we contend with insurance companies on behalf of our injured clients. Since moving to the plaintiff’s side, Lupe has recovered millions for his clients across a wide range of personal injury cases, including wrongful death, dram shop, trucking accidents, and car crashes.
Adding to his comprehensive skill set, Lupe is fluent in Spanish, offering a critical advantage in connecting with and representing Hall County’s diverse population. His commitment to keeping clients informed at every stage of their case, combined with his willingness to “outwork, outsmart and outfight the other side,” ensures a unique and practical skill set applied to every case. When not at the office, Lupe enjoys spending time with his family or on the golf course, reflecting a balanced dedication to both his personal and professional life.
Together, Ralph and Lupe embody the aggressive, professional, and compassionate representation that Attorney911 stands for. Their combined strength ensures that residents of Hall County receive not just legal counsel, but a dedicated partnership grounded in extensive experience and a genuine commitment to justice.
Navigating Personal Injury in Hall County: Your Rights, Our Fight
Life in Hall County, while often serene, is not immune to the sudden and devastating impact of personal injuries. From accidents on agricultural lands to incidents on county roads, when negligence causes harm, we are here to ensure your rights are protected and you receive the compensation you deserve. Our personal injury practice areas are designed to cover a broad spectrum of incidents, all approached with the same dedication to justice and client well-being.
Car Accidents: Standing Strong Against Insurance Tactics
Car accidents are unfortunately a common occurrence, affecting individuals and families across Hall County. Whether it’s a collision in Memphis, Estelline, or anywhere on the county’s road network, the aftermath can be complex, involving medical treatment, vehicle repairs, and frustrating negotiations with insurance companies.
We understand that insurance companies are businesses first, consistently aiming to minimize payouts. They make billions by collecting premiums and then seeking to reduce compensation when claims arise. Our team is experienced in negotiating with these companies from a position of strength. We leverage our deep understanding of their processes, including Lupe Peña’s invaluable insider knowledge from his time representing defense firms, to counter their tactics effectively.
We work with a broad network of experts, including medical care providers and accident reconstructionists, to meticulously build a strong case on your behalf. While we strive to settle cases whenever possible to save you the expense and delay of a trial, we will not hesitate to litigate your case if insurers fail to make a fair settlement offer. Our firm has a strong record of success in court, having handled numerous cases and secured multi-million dollar settlements. For instance, in a case where our client’s leg was injured in a car accident, leading to a partial amputation due to staff infections during treatment, our experience secured a multi-million-dollar settlement. This demonstrates our capacity to handle severe injuries and achieve positive outcomes.
If you or a loved one in Hall County has been involved in a car accident, do not face the insurance giants alone. We offer a free consultation to discuss your situation and outline the best path forward, operating on a contingency fee basis so you owe us nothing unless we win your case.
18-Wheeler & Big Rig Accidents: Tackling Complex Commercial Claims
The expansive highways crossing Hall County, such as US 287, are vital arteries for commercial traffic, including 18-wheelers and big rigs. While essential for commerce, these large vehicles can cause catastrophic accidents, leading to significant injuries and property damage. These cases are often far more complex than standard car accidents, involving intricate legal issues related to commercial insurance policies, federal trucking regulations, and interstate commerce law.
As specialists in truck accident litigation, our personal injury attorneys have a proven track record of helping many individuals and families affected by trucking-related accidents, including wrongful death cases, recover millions of dollars in compensation. We understand the nuances of the complex commercial insurance policies that cover semi-trucks and 18-wheelers.
Our evidence collection process is thorough and strategic. We bring in top experts, such as medical professionals and accident reconstructionists, to provide critical testimony and opinions for your case. We meticulously obtain and examine truck maintenance records, driving logs, drivers’ records, and even cell phone records to build robust cases against negligent truck drivers and trucking companies. Our investigative diligence has consistently helped injured clients receive the full compensation they need and deserve.
If you have been seriously injured in a trucking accident near Memphis, Turkey, or any stretch of highway in Hall County, and have questions regarding medical bills, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, or compensation for pain and suffering, we are here to provide answers and aggressive representation.
Motorcycle Accidents: Protecting Riders’ Rights
Motorcyclists on the scenic routes of Hall County enjoy the freedom of the open road, but they also face a disproportionately higher risk of severe injury in an accident. Despite having the same rights on the road as other drivers, motorcyclists are often victims of drivers who claim they “didn’t see” them. This is simply an excuse, as all drivers are responsible for being aware of their surroundings and controlling their vehicles.
At Attorney911, we protect the rights of bikers injured in motorcycle accidents, fighting tirelessly to hold negligent drivers accountable. Motorcycle accidents frequently result in severe injuries, including:
- Road rash burns and related scarring
- Closed head injuries and traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries, potentially leading to paralysis
- Loss of a limb or significant orthopedic damage
- Wrongful death in the most tragic circumstances
Our goal is to ensure injured motorcyclists and their families receive full and fair compensation for all their losses, including property damage, current and future medical expenses, lost income and future earning capacity, and compensation for pain and suffering. We bring aggressive legal strategies to bear, advocating fiercely so that negligent parties are held responsible and our clients can focus on recovery.
Offshore Injuries & Maritime Law: Specialized Advocacy for Coastal Workers
While Hall County is an inland community, many residents may work in Texas’s vital coastal and offshore industries. If you are a deckhand, first mate, captain, seaman, oilfield services worker, or rig hand who has sustained an injury on a ship, oil rig, or other offshore vessel or location, you are covered by specialized laws designed to protect maritime workers.
We have extensive experience resolving offshore injury cases under complex federal maritime laws such as the Jones Act, the Death on the High Seas Act, and the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act. Our firm has successfully handled cases like a client who injured his back while lifting cargo on a ship, where our investigation revealed negligence in providing assistance, leading to a significant cash settlement.
These cases often require a deep understanding of maritime regulations and a network of specialized experts. We collaborate with nurses, investigators, life care planners, accident reconstructionists, medical specialists, economists, vocational rehabilitation specialists, and safety experts to build an unassailable case. We represent you against employers and insurance companies, ensuring your rights are upheld whether your injury occurred on a freighter, tug, tanker, rig, barge, or other vessel.
It is crucial to contact an offshore accident attorney as soon as possible after an injury. Do not settle your claim directly with your employer or their insurance company before consulting with Attorney911 for a free initial consultation regarding your rights.
Workers’ Compensation: Protecting Injured Workers in Hall County
Workplace accidents can happen anywhere, from the agricultural fields and processing plants unique to Hall County to local businesses and municipal operations. The workers’ compensation system in Texas was established to protect employees injured on the job, providing benefits for medical treatment and lost wages. However, the system is complex, and unfortunately, the outcome for injured employees is often unfair.
Texas operates a unique “opt-out” system, meaning not all employers carry workers’ compensation insurance. If your employer is a non-subscriber, you might have additional legal avenues to pursue compensation through a personal injury lawsuit, which can lead to significantly higher recovery than traditional workers’ compensation benefits.
We guide you through the intricacies of the workers’ compensation system, ensuring you understand your rights and fulfill all necessary deadlines. It is vital to notify your employer of an on-the-job injury or occupational illness as soon as possible and to seek prompt medical treatment, informing your doctor that the injury occurred at work.
Our attorneys protect your workers’ compensation benefits and defend you if those benefits are initially refused or unfairly reduced. We have a track record of recovering millions for various workplace injuries. In one notable case, a client working at a logging company suffered a brain injury with vision loss after a log was dropped on him, resulting in a multi-million-dollar settlement. We are here for you every step of the way, advocating for fair treatment and maximum compensation.
Construction Accidents: Navigating Third-Party Liability
Construction is a reality even in Hall County, whether it is for new infrastructure, home building, or agricultural facilities. Construction sites inherently pose risks, and workers can suffer severe injuries from crane accidents, forklift incidents, falls from heights, or scaffolding collapses.
While workers injured on a construction site are generally entitled to workers’ compensation, a critical distinction we assess is the potential for a third-party claim. If your employer is a workers’ comp subscriber, you ordinarily cannot sue them directly. However, construction sites often involve multiple contractors, subcontractors, and equipment manufacturers. If a third party’s negligence caused or contributed to your injury, you might be able to file a personal injury claim against them, seeking compensation above and beyond your workers’ compensation benefits.
This “above and beyond” compensation can often cover a fuller range of damages, including pain and suffering, which workers’ compensation typically does not. We meticulously examine your construction accident case to determine all responsible parties and pursue every available avenue for compensation. Our expertise in identifying third-party liability is critical to securing your maximum recovery.
Refinery & Plant Accidents: Battling Corporate Negligence
While Hall County is largely rural, many residents may work in the numerous industrial plants and refineries located throughout Texas, particularly along the Gulf Coast. These facilities, while pivotal to the state’s economy, can be sites of catastrophic accidents due to cost-cutting measures or negligence, often at the expense of employee health and lives.
Our firm is one of the few in Texas that was involved in the landmark BP Texas City explosion litigation. This experience grants us unparalleled insight into the complexities of refinery and plant accident personal injury cases. We possess the knowledge and resources to provide immediate legal assistance against even the largest international industrial and refinery companies.
If you have been injured in an on-the-job refinery accident or other industrial incident, or tragically lost a loved one, you deserve to receive financial compensation, and the negligent parties must be held responsible. Refinery and plant accident litigation is incredibly complex, requiring experienced lawyers capable of understanding intricate industrial processes, safety regulations, and corporate structures. We are prepared to answer your questions regarding your legal rights and guide you through this challenging process.
Toxic Tort Claims: Seeking Justice for Exposure
Exposure to harmful substances, whether in the workplace, through environmental contamination, or from defective products, can lead to severe and often long-lasting injuries and illnesses. If you in Hall County have suffered from such exposure due to another party’s negligence or a faulty product, you have the right to seek compensation through a “toxic tort” claim.
The most crucial step in any toxic tort claim is ensuring you receive the necessary medical care as soon as possible. We prioritize connecting you with medical professionals and then work tirelessly to maximize your compensation. We meticulously assess all your immediate and future costs, losses, and expenses, ensuring they are fully factored into your demand for compensation.
We handle various types of toxic tort claims, including those involving:
- Water contamination
- Black mold exposure
- Defective drugs, including those subject to recalls
- Chemical exposure in industrial or agricultural settings
Toxic tort cases can be challenging because the negative effects of exposure often take years to manifest, making it difficult to link injuries to a specific source. We are adept at overcoming these hurdles and handle both individual and class action toxic tort claims, allowing us to represent single victims or large groups affected by similar exposures.
Wrongful Death Claims: Compassionate Advocacy in Tragic Times
The loss of a loved one due to another’s negligence is an unimaginable tragedy. We understand that grieving family members often find it incredibly difficult to grapple with legal issues during such a painful time. At Attorney911, we ease this burden by handling all legal aspects of a wrongful death claim, allowing you the space to mourn and heal, knowing that dedicated advocates are fighting for justice on your behalf.
Our Texas wrongful death lawyers support families across the state, including in Hall County, through these devastating periods. We meticulously investigate the circumstances of the death, whether it involves drunk driving accidents, motorcycle collisions, 18-wheeler truck accidents, or medical malpractice.
Working with economists and other financial experts, we develop a comprehensive picture of the financial and emotional impact of your loved one’s death. We consider every factor that influences your settlement, including medical and funeral expenses, loss of income and financial support, loss of companionship and parental guidance, and the pain and suffering experienced by surviving family members. We ensure the courts fully consider all losses you have endured.
In wrongful death cases, acting quickly is paramount to preserve crucial evidence, identify witnesses, and maintain the integrity of the accident scene. We provide a free consultation to responsibly and compassionately discuss your options and initiate the necessary legal steps to protect your family’s future.
Insurance Claims: Holding Companies Accountable
Beyond specific accident types, we also represent individuals and businesses in Hall County when insurance companies deny, delay, or underpay legitimate claims. Our perspective is rooted in the understanding that insurance companies often prioritize their profits over their policyholders. As Lupe Peña’s experience as a former insurance defense attorney reveals, the industry has systematic approaches to minimize payouts.
Whether it’s a property damage claim, a dispute over medical benefits, or a bad faith insurance claim refusal, we bring our aggressive advocacy to bear. We meticulously review your policy, gather compelling evidence, and challenge any unfair tactics employed by insurers. Our goal is to ensure you receive the full benefits you are entitled to under your policy.
Criminal Defense: Protecting Your Rights and Future in Hall County
Facing criminal charges in Hall County or anywhere in Texas can be one of the most frightening and stressful experiences of your life. The legal system is complex, and the consequences of a conviction can be severe, impacting your freedom, your reputation, and your future. At Attorney911, we are dedicated to providing immediate, aggressive, and professional criminal defense for those accused of various offenses. We fight fiercely to protect your rights, challenge the prosecution’s case, and strive for the best possible outcome.
DWI/DUI Defense: Strategic and Aggressive Representation
If you’ve been charged with Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) or Driving Under the Influence (DUI) in Hall County, whether near a local establishment or on a county highway, the implications can be profound. These charges can lead to hefty fines, license suspension, increased insurance premiums, and a permanent criminal record. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed and believe a conviction is inevitable, but this is far from the truth.
We have handled hundreds of DUI/DWI cases across Texas, employing a broad range of defense tactics to protect our clients’ freedom and driving privileges. Our strategies focus on challenging every aspect of the prosecution’s case, from the initial traffic stop to the administration of field sobriety tests, breathalyzer, or blood tests. We actively work to prevent the suspension of your driver’s license and will fight for your rights even if you refused to take a breath test.
Our firm has a strong record of success in DWI defense:
- In one case, our client was charged based on a breath test. Our investigation revealed improper maintenance of the breathalyzer machines by a police employee, leading to the dismissal of charges due to unreliable evidence.
- Another client, who drove home at 2:30 a.m., hit a curb and rolled his car, injuring a passenger. We discovered the police conducted no breath or blood test, emergency staff noted no intoxication at the scene, and critical nurse notes from the hospital were missing. The case was dismissed on the day of trial.
- In yet another instance, a client charged with DUI/DWI found the state’s primary evidence to be a video field sobriety test. We successfully argued the case for dismissal because our client did not appear drunk in the video, despite initial appearances.
These examples illustrate our meticulous approach and our commitment to challenging the evidence against you. We invite you to schedule a free consultation with us to discuss the aggressive legal defense strategies available for your DWI/DUI charges in Hall County.
Comprehensive Criminal Defense: Fighting for Your Future
Beyond DWI, we offer robust criminal defense services for a wide array of charges that can impact individuals in Hall County. Facing any criminal accusation can be terrifying, but with experienced legal counsel, a conviction is not inevitable.
Drug Crimes: Allegations of drug possession, trafficking, or manufacturing can carry severe penalties in Texas, including lengthy prison sentences. We have successfully defended hundreds of drug cases, helping numerous individuals across the state, including those facing charges related to marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, or ecstasy, to fight and beat their charges.
Our defense strategies include challenging probable cause, arguing illegal search and seizure, and raising other constitutional challenges to suppress evidence. In a significant case, police entered our client’s home without proper authorization, finding a large quantity of illegal drugs. Although he faced 5 to 99 years in jail, we successfully arranged for deferred adjudication, leading to no jail time and eventual dismissal of charges if he followed court rules.
We provide comprehensive defense for a full range of criminal cases, including but not limited to:
- Assault Crimes: Including Assault Family Violence, Child Abuse, and Domestic Violence.
- Theft Crimes: From petty theft to grand larceny.
- Homicide-Murder: Providing vigorous defense in the most serious cases.
- Firearms Offenses: Protecting your Second Amendment rights and freedom.
- Internet Crimes: Addressing complex cyber-related offenses.

Significant Case Victories: Challenging the Powerful
- BP Texas City Explosion Litigation: Our firm holds the distinction of being one of the few in Texas involved in the BP explosion litigation, demonstrating our capability to confront and secure concessions from even the largest, most powerful industrial corporations in highly complex mass tort scenarios.
- Drug Charges Dismissed/Reduced: In a case where a client faced 5 to 99 years in jail after police illegally entered his home and found a large quantity of illegal drugs, our skilled defense attorneys successfully arranged for deferred adjudication. This outcome meant our client faced no jail time and had his charges dismissed, proving our ability to dismantle even seemingly insurmountable cases through constitutional challenges.
Specific Case Outcomes: Detailed Defense Successes
Our criminal defense capabilities are further illustrated by specific DWI case dismissals:
- DWI Breath Test Dismissal: A client’s DWI charge, based on a breath test, was dismissed after our investigation revealed that a police department employee was not properly maintaining the breathalyzer machines, rendering the evidence unreliable.
- DWI No Alcohol/Drug Test Dismissal: A client involved in a single-car accident where a passenger was injured faced DWI charges. The case was dismissed on the day of trial because the police failed to conduct any breath or blood tests, on-scene staff did not note intoxication, and crucial hospital records were missing.
- DWI Field Sobriety Test Dismissal: Charges were dismissed for a client accused of DWI where the primary evidence was a video field sobriety test. We successfully argued that despite initial appearances, our client did not genuinely appear drunk in the video, challenging the subjective interpretation of the officers.
These detailed examples provide tangible evidence of our aggressive and effective legal strategies, showcasing how we protect our clients’ rights and futures by critically examining evidence and challenging prosecutorial claims.

Insider Knowledge of Insurance Companies
One of our most unique competitive advantages stems from Lupe Peña’s background as an attorney for a national defense firm. This experience provides us with unparalleled insight into how large insurance companies operate. We know:
- How they calculate and value claims: We understand their formulas, their internal processes for setting reserves, and their tactics for minimizing your compensation. This knowledge allows us to anticipate their moves and counter their arguments effectively.
- Their delay tactics: We recognize when insurance companies are intentionally dragging out a case to pressure you into a lower settlement, and we know how to force action, ensuring your case progresses efficiently.
- Their use of “independent” medical exams (IMEs): We are aware that IMEs are often used by insurers to find reasons to reduce the value of your claim, and we strategically prepare our clients for these encounters.
This insider perspective means we don’t just guess what the other side is thinking; we know. This empowers us to negotiate from a position of strength, always aiming to maximize your recovery.
