David Trosman.
The lawyer who reads
the case like an engineer.
David Trosman has a background in industrial engineering which, combined with his legal expertise, makes him uniquely qualified to handle complex personal injury matters. The kinds of cases that turn on mechanical evidence, product schematics, and safety protocols; cases where a lawyer who can read the engineering is the difference between a denial and a verdict.
His practice covers work-related accidents involving a wide range of injury mechanisms and safety protocols, product liability cases involving design and manufacturing defects, premises liability cases involving latent dangerous conditions on commercial establishments, trucking cases, and motor vehicle collision cases.
David has successfully tried more than 100 cases to juries in multiple Texas counties and has litigated more than a thousand cases since earning his Juris Doctor degree from Texas Tech School of Law more than 17 years ago. The trial work and the engineering eye combine into a practice few lawyers in Texas can match.
Before settling in Texas, David lived in Northern Virginia, Arizona, Italy, and several Latin American countries; including Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico. He is fully bilingual in English and Spanish, a skill that, together with his exposure to multiple cultures, gives him a real ability to communicate with his clients and understand their problems on terms that matter to them.
From engineering,
to the courthouse.
Industrial Engineering
Trained as an industrial engineer; the discipline of safety systems, mechanical processes, and the formulas that decide whether a workplace, a product, or a vehicle is going to hurt the person operating it.
Lived Across Continents
Lived in Northern Virginia, Arizona, Italy, Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico before settling in Texas. The exposure to multiple cultures translates directly into how he communicates with clients in cases that involve them.
Juris Doctorate
Texas Tech University School of Law, Lubbock. Trained in trial advocacy with a methodical, evidence-driven approach; the same instincts the engineering work had already built in him.
Texas Bar Admission
Admitted to the State Bar of Texas more than 17 years ago. Began civil litigation work immediately; volume and trial reps from year one.
Jury Trials Across Texas
Has tried more than 100 cases to juries in multiple Texas counties. The kind of trial bench depth that lets a lawyer walk into voir dire without notes and walk out with a panel that’s already paying attention.
Cases Litigated
Litigated more than a thousand cases over the course of his career. Volume builds pattern recognition; pattern recognition is how he spots the soft spot in the defense theory before the deposition is over.
Of-Counsel Attorney, J. Alexander Law
Of-counsel to the firm. Personally takes on the most engineering-heavy and trial-intensive matters; the cases where the team needs both an analytical mind and a courtroom presence.
Where the engineering background pays off.
David handles the cases that other lawyers send out for expert review. Workplace mechanism-of-injury matters, design and manufacturing defect cases, latent premises hazards, trucking, and motor vehicle collisions where the physics of the crash actually decide the case.

An engineer reads a system to find the failure. A trial lawyer reads a case to find where the defense theory breaks. A hundred jury trials in, that’s the same skill; one rehearsed in two languages.
