We are thrilled to announce that personal injury attorney Jonathan M. Bailey has rejoined the Kuzmich Law Firm after more than a decade serving the Denton County community. With over 30 years of experience and a career that spans the bench, the prosecution table, and both sides of injury litigation, Jonathan brings unmatched perspective to every injury case we handle.
Who Is Jonathan M. Bailey?
Jonathan M. Bailey is not your typical personal injury lawyer. Few attorneys in Texas can claim what he can: he has seen personal injury cases from every angle. He practiced injury law at the Kuzmich Law Firm, then went on to spend years defending against injury claims, prosecuting criminal cases as an Assistant District Attorney, sitting on the bench as Judge of the 431st District Court, and practicing injury law at a large multi-state firm. That breadth of experience means Jonathan understands exactly what insurance companies are thinking — and how to counter their tactics effectively.
Three Decades of Fighting for the Wrongly Injured
Before rejoining the Kuzmich Law Firm in 2026, Jonathan was an attorney at a large multi-state personal injury law firm. Prior to that, he spent a decade on the bench as Judge of the 431st District Court in Denton County, where he presided over thousands of personal injury cases. His first tenure at Kuzmich preceded his judicial service, during which he provided zealous representation to injured clients. Earlier in his career, Jonathan worked for an insurance defense firm, where he observed firsthand how insurance companies frequently take advantage of wrongfully injured victims.
Jonathan began his legal career as an Assistant District Attorney for both Denton County and Dallas County. As a prosecutor, he personally handled well over 100 jury trials involving misdemeanor and felony charges.
Why Jonathan’s Legal Background Makes a Difference in Your Injury Case
If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you need more than legal advice. You need an attorney who understands the full picture: how insurance companies evaluate claims, what judges and juries actually care about, and how to build a case that wins. That is what Jonathan M. Bailey brings to the table.
He knows that when you’re injured, you’re not just dealing with medical bills and missed work. You’re facing uncertainty, pain, and insurance adjusters who are trained to settle quickly and cheaply. Jonathan and our team handle that fight so you don’t have to.
Understanding Your Rights, and Your Timeline
Many injured people don’t realize that an insurance company’s first offer is rarely their best. Adjusters count on people accepting low settlements out of financial desperation. Under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years, so while you have time to pursue justice, that window does close. The sooner you speak with an attorney, the better positioned you will be. If you are unsure whether you have a case, review our Texas personal injury FAQs or call us directly.
A Personal Injury Firm Built on Experience
Jonathan’s return reflects what the Kuzmich Law Firm has always stood for. Founded nearly 30 years ago by Steve Kuzmich — a Board-Certified Personal Injury Trial Lawyer — the firm has built its reputation on experienced, dedicated advocacy for injured Texans. Nicole Gordillo, who began at the firm as a paralegal in 2000 before earning her law degree, brings 25 years of institutional knowledge and bilingual service to her clients. Sean Kilgore, a former prosecutor with over 100 jury trials to his name, has spent more than a decade at Kuzmich successfully representing clients in catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases. With Jonathan M. Bailey now back alongside this accomplished team, the Kuzmich Law Firm is ready to bring that collective depth of experience to your case.
