Winocour Law has been selected as one of the Best Wrongful Death Lawyers in Dallas, TX by Expertise.com for 2026.
The firm was chosen from among hundreds of Dallas-area attorneys and included on a shortlist of just 12 firms that met Expertise.com’s rigorous screening standards.
What the Expertise.com Selection Means
Expertise.com is an independent research platform that evaluates more than 60,000 service providers across the United States each month. Their editorial team does not accept applications — firms are identified through public databases and scored on more than 25 variables across five categories:
- Availability — Confirming the firm actively serves the Dallas area and is accessible to prospective clients.
- Qualifications — Verifying licensing, certifications, and professional credentials that go beyond the minimum required to practice.
- Reputation — Analyzing review scores and ratings across multiple platforms, including Google, Avvo, and Yelp.
- Experience — Evaluating the firm’s primary areas of focus, the breadth of services offered, and the depth of its attorneys’ careers.
- Professionalism — Conducting mystery shopping calls to assess how the firm handles initial client inquiries, including knowledgeability and responsiveness.
Being named to this list is an independent, third-party validation of the standard of service Winocour Law delivers to Dallas families navigating wrongful death claims.
A Legacy of Advocacy for Texas Families
Wrongful death cases demand a combination of legal knowledge, courtroom experience, and the sensitivity to guide families through an extraordinarily difficult time. At Winocour Law, that commitment spans generations.
Jonathan Winocour, the firm’s founder and principal attorney, is a fourth-generation Texas trial lawyer. A graduate of SMU Dedman School of Law, Jonathan has spent more than two decades fighting for injured Texans and the families of those lost to negligence. He has been recognized as a Top 100 Trial Lawyer by The National Trial Lawyers and has recovered millions of dollars for his clients.
Mike C. Miller, Of Counsel at the firm, brings over 40 years of trial experience and is Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a distinction held by a small percentage of Texas attorneys. Mike holds an AV Preeminent Rating from Martindale-Hubbell and concentrates his practice on FELA railroad injury, trucking, oilfield, maritime, and wrongful death cases.
Proven Results in Wrongful Death Cases
Winocour Law has a track record of securing meaningful compensation for families who have suffered devastating losses. Notable results include:
- $3.8 Million Wrongful Death Settlement — Holding a negligent party accountable after a family lost a loved one.
- $3 Million Dram Shop Wrongful Death Settlement — Pursuing justice against an establishment that overserved a patron whose intoxication led to a fatal incident.
- $925,000 Dram Shop Wrongful Death Settlement — Recovering damages for a grieving family through Texas dram shop liability.
Every case is different, and past results do not guarantee a similar outcome. These recoveries reflect the firm’s willingness to take on complex wrongful death claims and pursue maximum compensation on behalf of the families it represents.
What Sets Winocour Law Apart
Wrongful death claims in Texas involve strict deadlines, complex liability questions, and aggressive defense tactics from insurance carriers.
Winocour Law’s approach is built on:
- Generational trial experience — The firm’s legal team combines decades of courtroom advocacy.
- Focused practice areas — The firm concentrates on wrongful death, truck accidents, dram shop liability, brain injuries, and other serious personal injury matters—not a high-volume practice spread across unrelated areas of law.
- No fee unless you win — Winocour Law handles wrongful death cases on a contingency basis. Families pay nothing unless the firm recovers compensation on their behalf.
