Winner of the 2023 Austin Woman’s Magazine “Woman’s Way” Award and the “Advocacy and Activism” Award by the Latina Foundation, Laura Ramos James is one of the most recognized Lawyers in Texas and a women attorney who has supported disadvantaged communities in Austin and South Texas for several years.
A personal injury victim herself, Laura hoped that one day she’d be the loud and fierce voice of those who could not speak on their own behalf in court and amplify the voice of those who could. After graduating law school at Baylor Law with honors, Laura began the arduous professional path that culminated in the founding of Ramos James Law, PLLC in 2018.
With well over a decade of legal experience, Laura has successfully handled hundreds of personal injury cases involving auto and trucking accidents, drunk driving accidents, distracted driver accidents, commercial vehicle accidents, work injury, product liability, Texas Health Care Liability claims, sexual assault cases, complex construction accident and construction defects, catastrophic injury, wrongful death cases and more.
For Laura, the most significant and transforming influence in her life has been becoming the mother of two little girls with her husband Jon: Victoria & Alexandra.
Laura has received some of the highest recognitions in her industry, being named a “Rising Star” by the Super Lawyers™ organization for five consecutive years, being honored as part of even more exclusive recognition within Super Lawyers™ for the years 2023 & 2024 (Up-andComing 100: Texas Rising Stars: 2023 & 2024; Up-and-Coming 50: Women Texas Rising Stars: 2023 &2024) and with lifetime membership in the coveted Million and Multi-Million Advocates Forums. Laura is also a member of the National Trial Lawyers Top 100 and National Trial Lawyers Top 40 Under 40.

She is admitted to practice in all Texas state courts and in federal court in the U.S. District Courts of the Southern and Western Districts.
