Cory Itkin

Cory Itkin never backs down from a challenge—no matter how tough. In at least five of his cases, Cory won verdicts worth over $1 million against defendants who refused to settle. He’s won several seven- and eight-figure settlements just before trial, secured record-setting verdicts in challenging liability cases, and set the record for the largest helicopter accident verdict in Texas in recent years. When something bad happens, Cory is who people call. No matter where it happens. He has won significant victories in multiple states, with over 50 results worth over $1 million in total. He’s been able to get the best results for his clients, regardless of how well-prepared or well-equipped their opponents, because he refuses to be outworked. He aggressively prepares every case for trial, which has ensured the best possible outcome for thousands of clients. From high-profile disasters to the accidents no one hears about, Cory fights for people who have suffered catastrophic injuries. He’s won massive victories for cases involving trucking accidents, maritime accidents, industrial accidents, and more. He also advocated for home and business owners throughout Coastal Texas who were fighting major insurance companies after Hurricane Harvey.
