Arthur S. Ried
Born in Poland and now proudly serving communities across Texas, Arthur S. Ried is the kind of attorney you want in your corner when everything’s on the line. His journey from immigrant beginnings to seasoned trial lawyer reflects the values he brings to every case: discipline, precision, and an unwavering commitment to his clients.
Arthur earned a Mathematics degree from the University of Houston, then graduated Magna Cum Laude from Western Michigan University Cooley Law School on an accelerated track, earning seven Certificates of Merit and the Distinguished Student Award for his class.
He began his legal career representing homeowners in insurance disputes, then moved into insurance defense gaining valuable insight into how claims are evaluated and denied. Later, as an Assistant District Attorney in Bexar County, Arthur handled a full spectrum of cases, from DWIs and theft to assault and serious felonies. He managed heavy dockets, led numerous jury trials to verdict, and developed the courtroom instincts that now give his clients an edge.
Today, Arthur combines his trial experience, insurance background, and strategic mindset to fight for people who’ve been seriously injured or treated unfairly. He approaches every case with the precision of a litigator and the insight of someone who’s seen how the other side thinks. By preparing each case as if it’s going to trial, he positions his clients for the strongest possible outcome, whether through negotiation or in front of a jury. It’s this readiness, paired with his personal investment in each client’s story, that consistently delivers results.
