While the initial headlines focused on the devastating landfall in Matagorda County, Texas, those of us here in Saline County understand that Hurricane Beryl did not stop at the state line.

Hurricane Beryl Personal Injury, Wrongful Death, Property Damage, Utility Failure, and Insurance Bad Faith Attorneys in San Patricio: The Complete Guide for Survivors and Families The coastal reality of San Patricio changed on July 8, 2024, when Hurricane Beryl made landfall. While the eye crossed near Matagorda, the western side of the storm brought surge, tropical-storm-force winds, and a cascade of utility failures to our community. For many families in San Patricio, the storm did not end when the rain stopped. You may be reading this while still looking at a blue tarp on your neighbor’s roof, or perhaps while fighting a Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA) adjuster who claims your damage was caused by "rising water" rather than wind. Whatever your situation, our firm—operating under the consumer brand Attorney911—is here to provide the hyper-precise legal and regulatory command you need to recover. We understand that San Patricio residents often face a different set of hurdles than those in inland counties. As a designated First-Tier Catastrophe County under the Texas Insurance Code, property owners here are subject to the unique rules of Chapter 2210. Whether you are dealing with a denied claim, a tragic loss in the family due to the prolonged heat following power failures, or a contractor who took your money and disappeared, we are ready to listen. Ralph Manginello, our Managing Partner, has been licensed by the State Bar of Texas (Bar Card 24007597) since 1998, bringing over twenty-seven years of continuous trial practice to your side.…
