Sharpe & Kajander has received the highest rating from Martindale-Hubbell and is a downtown Houston law firm founded in 1971. The partners, Mac Sharpe, Junior, Tom Kajander and Rob Oliver, have combined more than 60 years of experience practicing General Civil Litigation, Maritime and Admiralty Law, Marine and Non-Marine Insurance Subrogation/Recovery & LiabilityClaims, Coverage Disputes, Personal Injury and Insurance Defense. We believe our small size allows a more "hands on" approach to each case, as well as, creating a closer attorney-client relationship.
We work competitively on a contingent fee or hourly basis depending on the assignment and client"s needs.
