Lupe Pena

Associate Attorney

Lupe Pena is an Associate Attorney with Heard Merman Law Firm.  In his early legal career, Lupe worked for years at a national defense firm, learning firsthand how large insurance companies value (or devalue) claims, and he now puts that insider’s experience to work to the benefit of Heard Merman’s clients.  Lupe works diligently with the motivation of wanting to help people during one of the most difficult times in their life – when they are injured due to the fault of another.  He has been lead counsel on a variety of lawsuits involving wrongful death, dram shop, trucking accidents, and premises liability cases and has recovered millions of dollars for his clients.

Lupe is a third generation Texan with roots that run deep from the esteemed King Ranch. He was born and raised in the Houston suburb of Sugar Land, Texas and resides there with his family to this day.  Lupe attended Saint Mary’s University in San Antonio where he earned a B.B.A. in International Business. After spending a couple years in finance, he was driven by the calling to help others and therefore moved back to Houston to attend South Texas College of Law.  Lupe has been licensed to practice law in Texas since 2012 and is admitted to the Southern District of Texas.  He is fluent in the Spanish language.  When he is not in the office zealously advocating on behalf of his clients, you can find him spending time with his family or on the golf course.
