Maggie Buentello Personal and Professional Background

Maggie joined the Air Force at 18, where she trained as a Spanish Linguist and served with the National Security Agency for ten years. She began taking evening classes at the law school during her last year of service, with her three sons often under her feet in class. She graduated St. Mary’s law cum laude in 2015 and has practiced law ever since. She is board certified in oil, gas and mineral law and is a member of the Texas Bar College. While she still practices in the oil, gas and real estate fields, she began practicing personal injury because it fulfills a purpose to serve that had been missing since separating from the military. Using her law degree to help individuals and families who have been injured and are unable to find treatment, support and other resources in the wake of tragedy is a role she takes seriously. Born in Fort Worth, Texas, Maggie has been in San Antonio since 2004. Her and her husband, Raul, have a blended family of five children – Lily (a Northwest Vista student headed to UTSA in the fall), Marshall (a student at Texas Tech), Tristan (headed to Texas Tech in the fall), Ethan and Jacob. When not working and going to school, the family enjoys raising chickens, honey bees, and a garden, travelling and new life experiences.

We are a personal injury firm serving Texans when they need help most.

Core Values

Integrity and Honesty: Two characteristics that are the pillar of every law firm – each is an integral part of being trusted counsel. Because each case is different, we are committed to being upfront and honest about what is possible in your case. Our firm adheres to a strict moral code, asking, “what’s best for the client?” to earn the trust clients put in us.

Pragmatic Practice: The range of personal injury results to clients is vast. We believe it is important to set realistic expectations from the beginning, because the million-dollar recoveries advertised on t.v. and radio are not available to most injured parties. We avoid making false promises about unrealistic outcomes and instead promise to be up front about the facts.

Steadfast Dependability:

When we say we are here to serve you, we mean it. You are more than just a number. While we strive to allow our team time off for themselves and their families, we are working days, nights, and weekends when necessary to ensure that your case is processed as timely as possible.
