Our firm specializes in representing victims of car accidents caused by negligent drivers. We handle claims involving medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage, ensuring clients receive fair compensation. With a deep understanding of Texas traffic laws and insurance tactics, we negotiate aggressively to secure settlements that reflect the full impact of injuries sustained.
Truck Accidents
Truck accident cases require expertise in federal and state regulations governing the trucking industry. We investigate violations such as driver fatigue and improper loading, leveraging our knowledge to counter insurance company defenses. Our goal is to recover damages for catastrophic injuries, emotional trauma, and long-term rehabilitation needs resulting from these collisions.
Wrongful Death
We provide compassionate legal support for families who have lost loved ones due to negligence. Our attorneys pursue compensation for funeral costs, lost income, and emotional suffering, holding responsible parties accountable. With experience in complex cases involving medical malpractice or industrial accidents, we ensure families receive financial stability during their time of grief.

Construction sites pose unique risks, from falls to equipment malfunctions. We represent workers injured due to unsafe conditions, navigating workers' compensation claims and third-party liability suits. Our team ensures clients obtain coverage for medical treatment, disability benefits, and lost earning capacity, prioritizing their long-term recovery.
Premises Liability
Property owners are legally obligated to maintain safe environments. We litigate cases involving slip-and-fall accidents, inadequate security, and other hazards, proving negligence to recover damages.

I am so happy that I contacted this law firm when I needed someone to really fight for me! Seth Anderson and his team treated me like an old friend from the very beginning! Seth took the time to really listen to me, my circumstances, and my desired outcome. He was willing to go the extra mile, and not back down! In the end, I was awarded more than I even thought possible. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

I got T-boned this year and for the first time in my life I needed to seek legal counsel for the matter. I am pleased to say that Mr. Drawhorn and Sharon have made sure I wouldn't regret that. The service I received from both of them and even the receptionist was exceptional, they got things done swiftly, and they absolutely made sure I got the best out of a bad situation. I recommend them to anybody who needs help and was the victim of a car accident or similar. 7/5, I would give more stars if I could, and if need be I know who I will hire again. Adam did what Lawyers do best and Sharon made sure the experience was not a headache, I will actually miss looking forward to her phone calls. Thanks for everything guys, hope I get invited to the Christmas party! -Samuel M.

Truly, I could not have found a stronger advocate as willing to work on my behalf, diligently seeking compensation for what I lost both physically and emotionally as a result of an auto crash. Seth Anderson and his right hand, Carolyn Burton, were at the other end of the phone line any time I needed to talk or cry, or seek guidance. When many might have grown weary or backed down when the going got tough, they did not. I cannot recommend Anderson & Cummings highly enough. They were tireless when seeking relief for me, and I will be forever grateful.

Highly recommend their law office. Huge thank you to Mr Jason Stephens and Tracy Heffner for all of their hard work, patients, care, and understanding during this process. Thanks to God my husband and 2 kids and all involved were alive from car accident, though it has been a long year dealing with this, their office took a great deal off our shoulders. We live near Austin, TX. Ross & Mathews referred us and we are grateful they did. Tracy and Jason were very prompt and caring.

Excellent communication and care. Thanks so much to Adam and Stacy for helping me through my first accident. I was a little lost in who to call, stumbled upon this firm and am glad I did. They walked me through the whole process and got me the best settlement they could. It was a minor accident compared to others more seriously injured but I feel they still treated my case as if it was just as important. If you are in an accident, definitely call Stephens Anderson & Cummings in Fort Worth before talking to any other insurance companies or attorneys. Thanks again for all y'all did!

Stephens Anderson & Cummings did a great job with our personal injury case. Jason and Tracy took care of all details. They negotiated with both car insurance companies (ours and the other party's) and our health insurance company to settle our case beyond our expectations. They were ethical, responsive, and thorough. I heartily recommend them to anyone.

These folks handled my personal injury case after I was seriously injured in a car accident. I was able to concentrate on getting well, while they took care of everything else. They got me a much better settlement than I could ever have hoped to get on my own. I highly recommend them!

I have to say when I found John Cummings and his firm it was God sent! Everything he did for me and my family was greater and far beyond any expectations I had or could imagine! I would definitely recommend John and his partners to anyone and everyone who has been hurt in an accident. God bless you all!

Jason Stephens 5 star rating was not given, but earned. All attorneys have knowledge of the law, but he takes it to a completely different level and I'll tell you why. Thoroughness, attention to the smallest details, professionalism, understanding, compassion, he's a pitbull negotiator and much more. I can't say enough about his or Tracy's skills in dealing with complex issues. After a traumatic long term injury, he changed me from a life of poverty to a very comfortable retirement.
Not many attorneys would have went the extra mile, but he did and for that I am forever grateful. So if your lawyer shopping like I had to do your first and biggest mistake would be to pass up Jason. He's the man for the job.

Just after our grown son had an accident we contacted John Cummings and asked for his help. For a whole year he worked with us in a caring, professional manner that ultimately led to a successful settlement that is now helping our son and his wife as they focus on the difficult task of recovery. John's calm, determined manner of handling things was a great comfort to our family as we navigated the unfamiliar and stressful territory of insurance company regulations. Thank you John. We appreciate both you and your professional support staff at Stephens, Anderson and Cummings.

This law firm exceeded my expectations in a number of ways. Not only did they make you feel at home, but the professionalism was stellar. They followed up with the smallest of details, and took every avenue possible for a positive outcome of my case. I would recommend this law firm to anyone seeking council with excellent communication and followup.

I couldn't be more pleased with my legal representation by Jason Stephens. From the day I called his office and initially spoke to his paralegal, Tracy, to the day my case was settled, the entire team was understanding, compassionate, diligent, and knowledgeable as to current law. It is difficult to know what to do after a traumatic and debilitating motor vehicle crash; however, they are excellent at patiently taking you through the process from start to finish. Mr. Stephens came highly recommended and I must say he and his team exceeded my expectations. Thank you all for your professionalism, compassion, and timely resolution of my case.
