Attorney Jesse E. Guerra, Jr. Joins Million Dollar and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forums

Feb. 1, 2013 - PRLog -- San Antonio Attorney Jesse E. Guerra, Jr., representing Texas residents who were harmed in pool and drowning accidents, recently received a major honor for his ability to help clients obtain million-dollar and multi-million dollar compensation awards. The lawyer, founder of The J. Guerra Law Firm, was recently named to both the Million Dollar Advocates Forum® and the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum®. This is privilege that very few attorneys throughout the nation experience.

Lawyers who join the Million Dollar Advocates Forum® are required to have acted as the principal counsel in at least one case that resulted in a settlement, award or verdict that valued one million dollars or more. Those who join the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum® are required to have met similar requirements, except with settlements, awards and verdicts with amounts in the multi-million-dollar range. Attorneys accepted into the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum® must also be life members of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum®.

Membership for the Million Dollar Advocates Forum® represents less than 1% of lawyers in the United States. There are about 4,000 members. The exclusive organization was established in 1993. The forum not only recognizes lawyers for their high achievements in legal advocacy, but it also provide them with a national network that they can use to access other highly skilled attorneys when working on major cases or when making referrals.

By becoming a member of these forums, Attorney Guerra has distinguished himself as a lawyer who is fully capable of helping clients obtain large amounts of compensation. The skilled lawyer has also received other forms of recognition for his professional excellence. In 2009, he was one of 25 attorneys in the state of Texas to be named in the Extraordinary Minority Lawyers list by Texas Lawyers Magazine. This designation is only given once every five years.

Mr. Guerra is an aquatic litigation attorney who largely focuses on swimming pool safety law, though he can handle various types of swimming and drowning incidents. Because of his depth of knowledge in his field, he was chosen to serve as Legal Counsel for the National Drowning Prevention Association. The attorney is licensed to practice law in various levels of the court system, including all Texas state courts, as well as in the federal courts in all four of the U.S. District Courts of Texas. He has also been allowed to serve in courts outside of these areas on a case-by-case basis, particularly when handling nationwide cases.
