His goal is to provide his clients with the strongest possible chance of achieve the case outcome they desire. If you’ve been injured in accident that was someone’s else’s fault, he can help.
A Strong Advocate
Accident victims often find themselves at a vulnerable point in their lives. Not only are they faced with a legal fight they didn’t seek out; they’re often still struggling to recover from their injuries. At this time, it’s important that they have a strong advocate at their side, someone who has experience and knowledge of personal injury law in Texas. Attorney Fjeld will do everything he can to explain the legal process in layman’s terms to clients so that they feel more secure in their knowledge of what’s happening.
Clients can rely on Attorney Fjeld and his associates to provide sound legal advice about their claim and Texas statutes. Honesty and integrity are hallmarks of the firm. Each member of his team is committed to service clients with their best work.
Customized Care
Attorney Fjeld is inspired by the small legal firm model. The downside of a large law firm is that all but a ‘few regular clients’ feel like they truly matter to the firm. They may feel like a case number. They may feel anonymous. This is unfortunate because all clients deserve to feel heard, to know that their case matters as much to their advocate as it does to them. Large firms may witness thousands of cases pass through their doors; however, the attending attorney may not have adequate time to get to know each of their stories in detail.
Attorney Fjeld has a desire to get to know his clients so that he can more effectively represent their interests at the negotiation table or in the courtroom. He believes that clients deserve personalized attention. He doesn’t rush anyone out the door or brush off their questions. He takes time to address their concerns and educate them about aspects of Texas personal injury law that apply to their case.
In short, providing clients with adequate time and care is about respect. If big firm attorney doesn’t return you call within a day, do they respect the importance of your call? Your case? If your attorney doesn’t update you about your case, they may not understand how important the matter is to you—and they should understand! Attorney Fjeld respects his clients—respects what they have endured through the fault of another. He values the trust that clients place in himself and his team. That trust is never something to be taken lightly or taken for granted. When you hire Jerome O. Fjeld, PLLC, you can expect the respect you deserve—not just in word but in deed.

Practice Areas
Attorney Fjeld generally takes personal injury cases that are related to:
- Slip and Fall Accidents: Victims of slip and fall accidents may be eligible for damages if we can prove that a property owner (or the property manager / staff) failed to provide a safe environment for visitors, guests, or patrons. Examples of slip and fall accidents are tripping on carpeting that is unsecured or falling down after tripping on broken floor tiles.
- Wrongful Death: The loss of a loved one is tragic. When this loss is attributed to the negligence or wrong-doing of another, family members like the surviving spouse, children, and parents can file a wrongful death suit to win compensation. No amount can replace a lost loved one, but compensation can alleviate financial stress that frequently accompanies these situations.
- Car Accidents: Thousands of car accidents take place Texas highways and byways each year. Many of these accidents occur because of a driver makes a careless mistake. We hold errant drivers accountable for their mistakes. If you’ve been injured in a car accident caused by another driver’s carelessness or recklessness, you have a right by law to seek fair compensation for your injuries.
- Truck Accidents: Getting into a collision with a big rig can have fatal consequences. Sometimes these collisions lead to catastrophic injuries. If a truck driver has failed to operate their vehicle safely or drives drowsy, you may have a strong claim against them.
- Motorcycle Injuries: Motorcyclists are 25 times more likely to be injured in a roadway collision than other motorists and their passengers. Without the protection of an airbag or steel frame, motorcycle riders are vulnerable to serious and even catastrophic injuries. If a driver made a mistake that led to your injuries, our Attorney Fjeld can help.
- Bicycle Injuries: Bicyclists have the right to share Texas roads with motor vehicles. Some drivers may not exercise the caution they should when sharing the roads with other conveyances. If you’ve been involved in a collision while riding your bike, you may have a strong claim to win compensation for your injuries.
- Dog Bites: Millions of Americans are bitten by dogs each year. If a dog owner failed to leash their dog or secure their aggressive dog with fencing, you may be eligible for compensation for your medical expenses and pain and suffering. Contact our firm to learn how we can help you pursue justice.
