Corey B. Kronzer

Trial law runs three generations deep in Corey B. Kronzer’s family, and he has spent more than a decade adding to that legacy. Now at Perdue & Kidd in Houston, Kronzer represents people seriously hurt in workplace accidents, motor vehicle collisions, premises liability incidents, and other injury matters — with a specialty most Houston injury lawyers simply do not have.

That specialty is railroad litigation. Before joining Perdue & Kidd, Kronzer concentrated on representing injured railroad workers under the Federal Employers’ Liability Act, taking on the nation’s largest railroad companies for clients across the country. Those cases turned on defective railcars and locomotives, unsafe work methods, dangerous track conditions, train-versus-vehicle collisions, and violations of safety rules and industry standards — technical, heavily defended claims that reward a lawyer who knows the industry’s own rulebook.

His signature result shows he can carry a case to verdict alone. Serving as sole trial counsel for a locomotive engineer injured when a tractor-trailer collided with his train, Kronzer won a $1 million jury verdict against the trucking company and its driver — a result recognized among Texas’ Top 50 Verdicts of 2025 in both the personal injury and motor vehicle accident categories. For an injury victim evaluating lawyers, that distinction matters: insurers pay more attention to attorneys who have proven they will actually try the case, by themselves if necessary.

Kronzer earned his law degree from South Texas College of Law Houston, where he competed in the school’s nationally ranked trial advocacy program, after a bachelor’s degree in finance and entrepreneurship from Baylor University. Away from the office, he and his wife, Rachel, spend their time chasing after two young daughters.

He is the clear pick for railroad workers with FELA claims — few Texas lawyers know that terrain as well — and a strong fit for workers injured by unsafe conditions on any job site, and for victims of serious truck and car collisions who want a lawyer prepared to stand up in front of a jury. Perdue & Kidd handles cases on contingency with a free consultation: no fee unless the case wins.
