A Nurse Attorney Fighting for Severe Injury Victims

Kathleen Kearney is both an attorney and board-certified nurse who represents Texans with severe injury and wrongful death claims since 2006.

Kathleen earned a Bachelor of Science from Boston College School of Nursing, a Master of Science in advanced nursing practice from Emory University School of Nursing, and a Juris Doctor from Suffolk University Law School with a focus on health and biomedical law.

She is also a proud graduate of Trinity High School, an award-winning public high school in Euless, Texas.

That educational path shaped a practice grounded in careful analysis, compassion, and a deep understanding of how serious injuries affect real people and their families.

Practice Areas

Kathleen did not know any attorneys before attending law school in 2002 so she understands the fear and uncertainty that goes along with the insurance claims process and hiring a lawyer, especially while trying to recover from a traumatic injury or loss of a loved one. Kathleen is committed to seeking justice for those who are severely injured in Texas by negligence, and represents a very limited number of clients.
