Thiessen secured a $13.5 million wrongful death settlement recognized among the top 10 in Texas, and ranked #1 in multiple case categories statewide.
HOUSTON, June 30, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Houston personal injury attorney Mark Thiessen has been recognized on two separate TopVerdict lists honoring the largest settlements obtained in Texas in 2025. Thiessen's work alongside Randy Sorrels and Eric Gerard of the legendary Sorrels Law Firm earned him spots on both the Number 1 Settlements in Texas in 2025 and the Top 10 Wrongful Death Settlements in Texas in 2025 — it also ranked first in the categories of Construction Accidents, Bone Fracture, and Industrial Vehicle Accidents.
Morris, et al. v. Construction Co., et al., a $13,500,000 wrongful death and construction accident settlement, involved a fatal construction accident with multiple defendants and complex liability questions, including claims of gross negligence.
"These recognitions mean a lot, but what matters more is what that settlement means for the family. They suffered an unimaginable loss, and they needed someone to fight like hell for them. That's what we do. Every case, every time," said Mark Thiessen, Founder and Trial Attorney at Thiessen Law Firm.
This recognition adds to a strong stretch for We Fight Giants, Thiessen Law Firm's personal injury division, which has built its reputation going head to head with insurance companies and corporate defendants on behalf of injured Texans. The same trial preparation and courtroom credibility that produced Thiessen's criminal defense record now carries directly into the firm's personal injury practice, giving opposing counsel and insurers good reason to come to the table before a case ever reaches trial.
TopVerdict.com is one of the leading databases of trial results and settlements in the United States. Its annual state-level lists are compiled using a defined methodology and represent verified outcomes across cases filed in state and federal courts, as well as pre-litigation settlements. Appearing on multiple lists from a single case shows both the size of the recovery and its significance across Texas personal injury law.
For Thiessen, the recognition is less a destination than a checkpoint. He and his team remain focused on what comes next: taking on the giants and winning for the people who matter most.
