    Andrew K. Gardner is the founding attorney of A. K. Gardner Law, PLLC in Houston, Texas. He represents people injured by negligent drivers and trucking companies, defective products and pharmaceutical companies, along with premises liability and dog bite victims.

    Gardner grew up in Flushing, Michigan, and earned a political science degree from Michigan State University before graduating magna cum laude from Michigan State University College of Law in 2015. As a law student he interned in Michigan’s Office of the Solicitor General, assisting with research on a U.S. Supreme Court case. He was licensed in Texas in 2015 and in New Jersey in 2023.

    In 2017 he helped draft a successful appeal for a man beaten by nightclub bouncers, producing the published decision in LFMC Enterprises, LLC v. Baker. He was second chair on a trial team that secured a $5.5 million settlement in 2019, and his firm has since obtained a $108,367.92 Harris County jury verdict for a mother and two daughters hurt when a rental home’s ceiling collapsed.
