About Hampton & King

With more than 70 years of combined experience, our success is directly tied to the success of our clients. We deliver client-focused services grounded in a philosophy that prioritizes their needs and goals.

Medical malpractice cases are unique. The law has nuances that apply only to medical malpractice cases. Same for the rules of evidence.

The fact issues are different from other lawsuits. Jurors’ attitudes are different. Even the insurance companies think differently.

Our birth injury attorneys in Houston have lived in that different world for decades. We have the experience and the track record that you should look for when choosing someone to represent you and your family in such a crucial matter.

At Hampton & King, we work diligently to hold negligent medical providers accountable for the harm they cause. We understand the laws and procedures that govern medical malpractice lawsuits in Houston and will fight to secure the justice and compensation your family deserves.

Why Hire Hampton & King?

Chris and Hartley have spent a combined 70 years representing families in medical negligence cases. They have been honored year after year by Super Lawyers and have been recognized by U.S. News and World Reports Best Lawyers as a Tier 1 Medical Malpractice firm. Hartley Hampton has been chosen Texas Medical Malpractice Plaintiff’s Lawyer of the Year twice, most recently in 2024. See the Our Attorneys section for more information.

We know that you have choices. There are many law firms advertising for cases in the Greater Houston, Texas and Santa Fe, New Mexico areas. We encourage you to make a careful comparison of their experience, results and resources.

When we take a case, we make a commitment to provide state-of-the-art representation. We invest our time—often two or three years or more—and our money–often more than $100,000. We are only paid if the case is successful. For that reason, we are very selective about the catastrophic injury lawsuits in Houston we accept and we keep our caseloads small.
