CMZ Law

At CMZ, we have earned our reputation as trial attorneys the old-fashioned way, by fighting for our clients in the courtroom. Some lawyers try gimmicks and catchy phrases to get you to trust them with one of the most important decisions you’ll make. But, what they cannot offer is a track record of proven results. At CMZ, we have won over $1 Billion for our clients. When you do that, you don’t need gimmicks. While verdicts and awards are important, that’s not our focus. We focus on you. Each client is different with his or her own special circumstances. At CMZ, we get to know our clients so we can get to know their needs. We treat our clients like family and will treat your case as though it is our own. We believe our attention to the needs of our clients gets the best results.

In 1971, George Chandler began representing injured East Texans. At a time when very few attorneys would stand up for injured people and workers had few rights if any, George Chandler became a voice for those in need. Mr. Chandler says he finds great satisfaction in improving the quality of life for clients who are down and out and have no hope other than the justice system. “We consider ourselves fortunate to have the opportunity to substantially improve the quality of the lives of people who need help,” he says. Through the years, the firm has grown, but it has never lost sight of its founding principles. Today, Mr. Chandler, along with his partners, Kirk Mathis and Perry Zivley, continue to hold true to the roots of the firm’s foundation.
Throughout the years, the firm has been consistently ranked AV, Preeminent by the highly esteemed Martindale Hubbell peer ranking system indicating the highest ranking for legal ability and ethics. Each member of the firm is also personally AV-rated. The attorneys are all rated as Super Lawyers by Texas Monthly and are members of esteemed attorney organizations like The American Board of Trial Advocates, The Texas Bar Foundation, The International Academy of Trial Lawyers, The American College of Trial Lawyers, and The National College of Trial Lawyers to name a few.
