Meet Attorney Ben Hoover

A lifelong Texan standing up for people in Wichita Falls, Decatur, and Lawton

Raised in Paradise (pop. 620), Ben Hoover is a lifelong Texan. For Ben, his small-town roots taught him that every person is uniquely important, and every story is worth telling. From this perspective, he takes his cases personally.

It’s in these local arenas where he’s sought to make positive contributions for years. He has built a winning reputation for really connecting with his clients and going the necessary length to get them reimbursed for injuries.

Ben was the first in his family to pursue law, discovering this path in college. He spent years as a prosecutor but realized that he wanted to directly help more people. Now he fights for accident victim rights and creates customized estate plans.

Ben is board certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. It’s estimated that only 2% of Texas attorneys carry this specialization, which requires a minimum number of jury trials, years of experience, and passing a difficult exam.

If you are familiar with Wichita County, Decatur, Lawton, or the surrounding areas, you may have already met Ben around town or at the ball field. Ben’s past and present civic and community roles include:

• Felony prosecutor for the Wichita County District Attorney’s Office
• Wichita Falls City Councilman
• Sports broadcaster for WF Legacy High School on the “Hilltop Sports Network”
• Criminal Justice Adjunct Professor at Midwestern State University
• Region 9 education board member
• Coach for youth basketball and baseball teams

A licensed attorney in Texas and Oklahoma, Ben understands how our justice system works. You can count on his experience and resources to pursue maximum compensation for your claim.

When Ben isn’t hammering away at insurance companies or designing a living trust, he is probably outside with his wife and three children, tossing a football, shooting baskets, or planning a road trip. His wife, Meagan, is a mental health practitioner with a growing office; they treat kids and adults throughout the Texoma region and beyond.

If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, or if you need the peace of mind of an estate plan, contact us to find out how attorney Hoover can help you.
