About Jose Rios
Jose L. Rios is a San Antonio native who spent two years doing manual labor installing home security systems before returning to school at the University of Texas at San Antonio, where he majored in history. His interest in the law developed through studying ancient Greek and Roman civilizations and their influence on the American legal system. He went on to the Thurgood Marshall School of Law at Texas Southern University in Houston, graduating magna cum laude in the top 10 percent of his class on a merit-based scholarship.
During law school he clerked for federal judges Nancy F. Atlas and Kenneth M. Hoyt and spent summers working at the Gamez Law Firm. He focuses on getting injured clients fully compensated and has a track record of multiple seven-figure results, including a $2.8 million settlement and three separate $1 million settlements in the fall of 2022 alone. He has been recognized as a Super Lawyers Rising Star (2021).
Proven verdicts and settlements at Joe A. Gamez Law Firm
These results are credited to Joe A. Gamez Law Firm. A result appears under an attorney's own name only when a published source names them as counsel on the case.
A Bexar County jury awarded Brenda Steele $1,052,500 after finding a Martin Marietta employee responsible for a 2018 collision in a Walmart parking lot that left Steele needing years of spine treatment. Her adult daughter, a passenger in the car, received a separate and far smaller award for her own injuries. The trial court had removed the question of Steele's own possible fault from the jury by directed verdict before the case went to the jury. In April 2026, the Fourth Court of Appeals reversed that ruling and sent the case back for a new trial, holding the jury should have decided whether Steele shared any responsibility for the crash. Motions for rehearing are pending, so the reversal is not yet final and the verdict does not currently stand.
