Kacy Clemens and Conner Capel were awarded $3.24 million by a Houston jury as a result of the January 1, 2019 assault attack at the Concrete Cowboy Bar on Washington Avenue in Houston, Texas.

client review
I was referred to Moss & Colella in 2018 following a car accident. I cannot tell you how confident and safe I felt knowing that I was in good hands. David, and Ryan made sure that I always had any questions or concerns addressed in a timely manner. I appreciated their compassion, and understanding as I got emotional, and the reassurance they provided, made me feel important and valued as a client. If you need a great lawyer for an injury, this is your firm! I hope I never need to be in a position where I’d need their help again, but if I did, I’d gladly seek their services!
