Jeffrey Fultz
Fultz & Cougill, LLP
Jeffrey Pierce Fultz, a native Texan, was raised in Navasota, a small town in southeast Texas. He comes from a family of country lawyers that embody grit, determination and service above self, and is engrained with a tough work ethic and non-elitist, yet confident personality, understanding that the practice of law is a service industry in which a lawyer must be able to identify and relate to all types of individuals, clients and adversaries. His commitment to providing personal attention to his clients and their cases is his top priority and personal brand, whether it be a large business, corporation or an individual. He is known for his tenacity for vigorously defending his clients and “getting the job done” efficiently with honesty, integrity and compassion. In addition to civil defense litigation, his expertise includes personal injury, products liability, mass tort, and other complex civil and commercial litigation. Jeffrey represents commercial, property & casualty, oil & gas, and personal lines/commercial auto insurers and their insureds, providing investigative services, pre-litigation claims resolution, and zealous representation of his clients in all stages of civil litigation through trial.
Having been a licensed Texas attorney since 1994, Jeffrey has handled a broad range of civil matters including cases and claims related to exposure to silica, asbestos, benzene and other toxic/environmental hazards; premises liability; construction defects; products liability; and catastrophic injury/wrongful death cases. In addition, he has developed a strong practice and is heavily involved in handling first-party insurance claims, bad faith and other insurance coverage litigation as well as extensive experience litigating cases involving commercial trucking accidents, automobile accidents, and cases involving catastrophic injury, property damage, cargo damage, and subrogation matters.
