Requirements for certification
The Texas Board of Legal Specialization certifies attorneys as specialists through a rigorous application process. Lawyers must prove their knowledge, experience and professionalism in their designated practice areas to earn certification. Personal injury trial law certification requires:
- At least five years of experience in legal practice

- Significant trial experience
- Successful passage of a comprehensive written examination
- Evaluation by peers who are involved in personal injury practice and familiar with the applicant’s abilities and professionalism
- Completion of continuing legal education classes
This distinguished designation expires every five years, at which stage certification status is subject to review to ensure that the lawyer continues to maintain the highest standards of practice and strict qualifications required for certification.
