Patrick Hotze: A Legacy of Excellence

Patrick Hotze, the driving force behind Law Experts, is a renowned trial attorney with a passion for justice. Born and raised in Texas, Patrick earned his undergraduate and law degrees from the University of Texas at Austin. During his time in law school, he developed a keen interest in advocating for the rights of the injured and disenfranchised.

After graduating from law school, Patrick began his legal career at a prominent personal injury firm in Austin. There, he gained experience representing clients in a wide range of cases, from catastrophic injuries to wrongful death claims. He earned a reputation as a tenacious litigator who was not afraid to take on powerful defendants and fight for his clients’ rights.

In 2006, Patrick founded Hotze Runkle with his colleague Ryan Runkle. The firm established itself as a leader in mass tort litigation, representing thousands of clients in cases involving asbestos exposure, dangerous pharmaceuticals, and defective medical devices. Under Patrick’s leadership, the firm secured numerous multi-million-dollar settlements and verdicts on behalf of its clients.

Recognizing the need for a nationwide platform to advocate for victims’ rights, Patrick founded Law Experts in 2024. The firm builds on Patrick’s legacy of excellence and commitment to justice, bringing together a team of experienced attorneys nationwide to take on the most complex and challenging cases.

Patrick’s commitment to his clients extends beyond the courtroom. He is active in several professional organizations, including the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, the American Association for Justice, and the Christian Trial Lawyers Association. Through these organizations, Patrick works to advance the rights of injury victims and promote access to justice for all.

Fighting for Justice, OneClientat a Time​

At Law Experts, PLLC, we understand that every client’s case is unique, and we approach each one with the individualized attention and care it deserves. We take the time to listen to our clients’ stories, understand their needs and concerns, and develop a robust legal strategy to achieve the best possible outcome.

We recognize that our clients are often going through one of the most challenging times in their lives. They may be dealing with serious injuries, mounting medical bills, and the stress and uncertainty of the legal process. That’s why we make it our mission to provide exceptional legal representation, compassionate support, and guidance every step of the way.

Our attorneys take the time to explain the legal process to our clients in plain language, answering their questions and addressing their concerns with patience and understanding.

We also believe that everyone should have access to quality legal representation, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we work on a contingency fee basis, which means our clients pay nothing upfront and only pay attorneys’ fees if we recover compensation on their behalf. We also advance all costs associated with the case so our clients can focus on their recovery without worrying about legal expenses.

Our commitment to our clients extends beyond the courtroom. We understand that involvement in a legal case can be stressful and overwhelming, and we strive to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. We keep our clients informed every step of the way, answering their questions and addressing their concerns with compassion and professionalism.
