Biography
In January, 2015, William K Altman was notified by the Executive Director of the National Academy of Personal Injury Attorneys, Inc. to receive this “year’s prestigious TOP 10 ATTORNEY AWARD FOR THE STATE OF TEXAS.”
According to the notification letter: “The attorneys who make the NAOPIA TOP 10 list must first be nominated by a licensed attorney, and then our research staff verifies that they meet the minimum requirements of membership in the NAOPIA. Fifty of the nominated attorneys are chosen to advance to the final selection stage by our selection committee, and then our Board of Governors officially selects the TOP 10 in each state. With more than a million attorneys in the United States, the NAOPIA’s meticulous, independent selection process leaves no doubt as to whom the preeminent personal injury attorneys are in each state.”
William (Bill) K. Altman is a Texas Board Certified Personal Injury Attorney. He practices personal injury and insurance litigation law. With more than 40 years of legal experience, Bill has represented seriously injured innocent victims of wrecks, defective products, wrongful denial of insurance benefits, and many other wrongful acts of insurance companies, corporations, and individuals.
