Jonathan Herrera

I’m a Rio Grande Valley native now serving clients across Texas from my principal office in Houston’s East Downtown (EaDo).

My path to this profession was not traditional. The son of Mexican immigrants, I’m a first-generation high school graduate, college graduate, business owner, and attorney. I was raised in a family where hard work and perseverance came first, with the hope that formal opportunities would follow. Those values guide my work today.

My legal career was built on an insurance claims foundation. I worked for over a decade as an insurance adjuster, handling high-exposure litigated claims for carriers and third-party administrators nationwide, collaborating directly with coverage and defense counsel. During that time, I founded and built JH Claims LLC, an independent adjusting firm that grew from a solo operation into a multi-state claims handling business with six employees. I managed complex casualty and property matters involving catastrophic injuries, construction defects, trucking, industrial accidents, and commercial and residential property losses. 

I then practiced with Rymer, Echols, and Nelson-Archer, a premier insurance defense and coverage firm in Houston, Texas. I defended insureds in liability matters, prepared coverage opinions, and worked closely with carriers on complex coverage disputes. 

My background shapes how I handle every case, ensuring quality, hands-on representation for individuals and businesses.
