Choosing Hensley Law Firm was the best decision I could have made at a moment when I couldn't have felt more hopeless. Experiencing such a terrible car accident at no fault of my own, resulting in a spinal fracture which then needed Spinal Fusion Surgery. As an active young adult, a back injury like that meant that my life would change drastically. I was scared and in pain. And I didn't know a thing about debating with an insurance company to be compensated fairly. I knew I needed a lawyer and Deborah Hensley was the perfect choice. Her and her firm covered everything I needed. She helped with my physical and mental health throughout the entire process as well. Choosing Hensley Law Firm was one of the best decisions I've ever made and encourage anyone who needs a Personal Injury lawyer to go with this law firm. You will not regret it. read more

I'm extremely grateful for all the support that Hensley Law Firm has provided me. Through Deborah Hensley and her knowledgeable and kind legal team, they have helped me navigate through a difficult car accident, resulting in a neck and shoulder injury. Deborah and her team were happy to answer any questions that I had and did not back down in helping me getting the compensation to get the medical treatment I needed. She did not back down and checked in on my health often. The legal process itself is a frustrating process, but choosing Hensley Law Firm was the right choice that helped me get through it. I highly recommend them. read more

Deborah was a great support when my goddaughter was in an accident that was no fault of her own.

I highly recommend Deborah to anyone who needs legal personal injury representation. Deborah is NOT afraid to fight for you. read more

I am grateful I was referred to Hensley Law Firm by Lawyer Referral Service (LRS) of Central Texas! I was hit by a driver who ran a red light (one bone broken and my car totaled) and began to feel a lot of stress about how to proceed. I talked with Ed and decided to go with their firm. Later I mostly dealt w/ Deborah. Both are super knowledgeable and experienced with this type of personal injury case. They shepherded me through the ins and outs of the process, explaining what needed to be done when, etc., and thereby reducing my stress and worry. Both they and the staff were quite responsive to my questions and concerns, taking my phone calls and occasional in-person visits to explain the ins and outs of the process, as I said. They knew what needed to or could be done in order for me to receive a fair settlement. Again, grateful I signed up with them! Having them on my side resulted in my receiving the money I deserved (and more may be forthcoming due to additional steps they have taken!). read more

I was in a car accident in early January 2015 where the other party admitted 100% fault. I spoke with and signed an agreement with Edward Hensley a few weeks later. Over the course of the next 10 months the following things happened: 1. I was never contacted by the firm for updates on my case. I always had to call them and every time, I was told they were "still waiting" on forms from my medical providers. I finished my primary treatment in May 2015 (though I have residual injuries), at which point any competent lawyer should have begun moving the case along. 2. My hospital bill from January 6 went to collections, which I found out as I was attempting to obtain a mortgage in late 2015. The firm told me on the phone every time I called that they had been requesting and waiting for the hospital to release the records, but the only documentation in my file showed that they did not request the records until October 27 - nearly 10 months after the accident! 3. They switched my case to Deborah Hensley without informing me. I did not know that my case had been switched to Deborah until I finally decided to switch attorneys. 4. Even though they did almost no discernible work on my case (as evidenced by the files they turned over to me), they are attempting to hold a lien on my case so that I cannot move forward with another attorney. Deborah Hensley requested on November 2 that any new attorney contact her. I have had a new firm attempting to contact her every few days since November 5, and I have contacted them myself 3 times. They have refused to return any calls for 3 weeks so my case is now stuck. I will be filing a grievance with the State Bar Association of Texas for incompetent counsel and refusal to maintain contact. read more

Anybody who has a law degree can be a lawyer. You can throw a rock 50 feet in any direction in Austin and the chances of hitting a lawyer are pretty good...and you'll probably be treated as a hero when you hit one. An attorney, or the term we prefer advocate, is someone who represents your side, your story, your needs, etc. in a legal affair or proceeding. Your advocate is going to protect you and demand that you be treated fairly and with dignity. That's what Deborah Hensley does. That's what she has done for so many and what she has recently done for us. From the moment we met, it was obvious that Deb was listening to us, gathering information to make sure that the task ahead would bring us justice and satisfaction. Go ahead and check out some lawyers and attorneys around town. Call whoever your cousin or neighbor tell you to. After that, when you're ready for a true advocate...someone who will come to the table and fight for you...call Deborah Hensley read more

I'm going to use some common words that best describe Ed Helnsley. Honest, trustworthy, integrity, dutiful and caring. If you find those words reassuring then Ed and his office are the lawyers you need for your case. When you meet his as I have on several occasions you'll know why he has a stellar reputation. He's a real pro at personal injury claims and I'm sure you will find that their level of attention on your case is exemplary. read more

The Hensley's were with us every step of the way for our lawsuit. My husband was injured in 2010. Friends from church recommended the Hensley's and we are so glad they did. It was a long road (my husband just had his 5th surgery last month). Deborah always returned our calls (and if she was in court she got to us as soon as she was able). Mr Hensley greeted us personally each time we were in the office. Deborah was there the entire journey helping us deal with medical bills and even personal finance issues that were as a result from my husbands being off work. Throughout the 5 years we worked with Deborah she provided professional and compassionate service. We were able to settle out of court with enough to pay all my husbands medical bills, and get ourselves in a financially stable place that we hadn't had since my husband had to go on medical disability. We would recommend her to any of our friends, family, or acquaintances. read more

I was hit from behind and injured my neck. I thought it would get better but it never did. Luckily I had approached Deborah Hensley because they were way underpaying for my car. I asked her to help deal with the responsible driver's insurance about medical bills. I went through many diagnostic tests and treatments. It was a long process but she didn't want to settle before we knew if I would improve, get worse or need surgery. This was a painfully long process but Deborah always answered my calls, emails or met with me. She worked with facilities and doctors to defer bills when needed so I could get treatment when needed. Once we entered the legal phase;mediation, negotiation and court, Edward Hensley was there. They won every pre-court motion and I got a great settlement. The legal process is a painfully slow and frustrating process. There can be long periods without a lot going on and no amount of money is worth being hurt. I feel Deborah and Edward Hensley handled my case perfectly. If I had settled for what the insurance company offered me early on I'd be buried in medical debt. read more

I hired Deborah and i couldn't be happier with the results. She won my case and made the other lawyer look like an amateur. I would hire her again in a second. read more

I contracted with Hensley Law Firm after my wife got into a vehicle crash. I used to handle the process of accident claims but no more! Its too complicated and involved to leave it to the uninformed! I contacted Hensley Law Firm for help. Deborah came to the house and explained how the process would work. Deborah took care of all the paperwork and all contacts with the other drivers insurance and my own insurance company. Deborah kept me informed every step of the way while she negotiated with both insurance companies on my behalf. When it was over, and it did take some time, Deborah presented my wife with a check for damages minus her fee which came from the check. I was so impressed with Hensley Law Firm that when one of my peers also had a vehicle crash I recommended to her that she contact Hensley Law Firm for her personal injury incident. My co-worker also successfully negotiated the personal injury morass with the help of Hensley Law Firm and was successfully compensated for her injury and damages. I would recommend to anyone needing a personal injury lawyer to contact Hensley Law Firm! read more

I was in a bad car accident and Deborah Hensley was recommended to me by a friend. My experience with Deborah was very pleasant and the outcome was outstanding. I had two surgeries as a result of the accident and Deborah was very patient during my recuperation. She helped me navigate through the medical maze and was very detail oriented. Deborah got me a very significant six-figure settlement; and, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Deborah Hensley to a friend, or call her if I needed her help again. By the end of the experience, I felt like we'd made a new friend. read more

I hired the Hensley Law firm in July of 2009. I found them through the shepherd's guide. Sense we were new to the Austin area, From the time we walked in we felt very comfortable both my husband and I. I was in the beginning of alot of surgeries and legal battles and financial difficulties. I felt like I had two lawyers for the price of one! The wisdom of her dad and the tenacity of Deborah made me feel very confident. I named Deborah my princess warrior because she stood in defense for me. She went to battle for me. Whatever I needed Deborah was there. I always felt I was in control of my case. Deborah always assured me what to expect from depositions to settlement, sense I had no knowledge of what to expect. During my case their knowlegdeable staff lead me through the mounds of paper work and delay tactics which are designed to discourage citzens. The settlement proved them all to be right. I was very pleased at the end I knew all them by name. They were apart of my life so long it was kinda sad. I have recommended her to friends and family. I would not want any other lawyer on my side if I ever have another problem. read more
