Houston Personal Injury Attorney Jonathan H Cox

As a Partner at The Cox Pradia Law Firm, P.L.L.C., Jonathan H. Cox is committed to getting extraordinary results for his ordinary, hardworking clients.

Founding Partner of The Cox Pradia Law Firm, P.L.L.C.

As a Partner at The Cox Pradia Law Firm, P.L.L.C., Jonathan H. Cox is committed to getting extraordinary results for his ordinary, hardworking clients. His primary focus is representing those that have suffered serious injuries as a result of the negligence of others. Cox prides himself on aggressively representing his clients in courtrooms across the State of Texas, while at the same time showing genuine compassion for those that are suffering as a result of their injuries.

While working as a prosecutor, where he was lead counsel over 25 jury trials as an Assistant DA, it became apparent that many of the people he saw in court every day were poorly represented and were often times unaware of their rights. So after gaining valuable trial experience, he made the decision to leave public service and open his own law firm.

Partnering Up To Protect The Rights & Interests of the Injured

After several years of practicing together in the same office, Cox and his law partner, Troy Pradia, decided to join forces to create a law firm that focused on personal injury cases of every kind. As Houston personal injury lawyers, their cases now range from those that have been injured in car accidents to those injured in industrial explosions. The one common denominator with all of their clients is that they are everyday hard-working people that have had their lives interrupted by circumstances completely out of their control.

After working in the trenches with some of the finest lawyers in the city including, Craig Washington, Cox has no problem battling in the courtroom against the big law firms or insurance companies when necessary to obtain justice for his clients.

Establishing A Successful African American Owned Texas Law Firm

The Cox Pradia Law Firm, P.L.L.C. has sued some of the largest companies in America on behalf of their clients. He has said many times, “The combination of preparation and skill allows me to walk into any courtroom against any opponent and know that no matter how uneven the playing field, we can win.”

In 2011, the firm embarked upon a marketing and advertising campaign to reach a greater audience and to provide an alternative to the other lawyers that have flooded the TV Markets for years. The BigCityAccidents.com brand has proven to be very successful from Houston to Beaumont. BigCityAccidents.com radio advertisements and television commercials can be seen and heard across the City of Houston. In the beginning, the goal was to become the most visible and successful African American owned personal injury law firm in the State of Texas. After just a short period of time, they are well on their way.
