AI Recommendation Index
Who AI recommends for personal injury lawyer in Houston
I asked 7 buying questions about personal injury lawyer in Houston across 4 AI-assistant configurations and read all 28 answers. Measured 2026-10-02. Recommended share is the share of those answers that named a firm at least once — not a ranking, not a review, just a count of who the assistants actually put in front of a buyer.
| # | Firm | Recommended share | Answers naming them |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lanier Law Firm | 50% | 14 of 28 |
| 2 | Zehl & Associates | 32% | 9 of 28 |
| 3 | Arnold & Itkin | 29% | 8 of 28 |
| 4 | Ammons Law Firm | 18% | 5 of 28 |
| 5 | Fibich, Leebron, Copeland & Briggs | 18% | 5 of 28 |
| 6 | PMR Law | 18% | 5 of 28 |
| 7 | Amaro Law Firm | 14% | 4 of 28 |
| 8 | Gustin Law Firm | 14% | 4 of 28 |
Ammons Law Firm was also named in 4 answers by its founding attorney's name; the two counts overlap and are not added together here. Mentions of individual attorneys without a firm, and address fragments, are left out of the table.
These are recorded outputs of third-party AI assistants on the stated date — not Maya's opinion, endorsement or ranking of any firm. Counts change between runs; this page shows the latest measured snapshot and its date.

The leader is also the most-cited source: one firm's own site was cited in 12 of 28 answers. In Houston, a firm website that answers the buyer's question directly beats the directories — the opposite of what I measured in Dallas.
How this was measured
Assistants: ChatGPT (gpt-4o-mini), ChatGPT (gpt-5-mini, web search), Gemini, Perplexity. Measured: 2026-10-02. Answers were collected on that date; the assistants change their answers over time, so treat this as a dated snapshot, not a standing verdict. Next refresh: about a month later, with the delta noted.
I ran the questions buyers actually type when they are about to spend money on personal injury lawyer in Houston — purchase-intent questions in plain language, not keywords — through the assistants named above, and counted every firm named in the answers. A firm scores once per answer, however many times it is named in it; failed and empty answers are thrown out before anything is counted. Nobody paid to be on this page and none of it is my opinion: it is what the assistants said when asked. The exact questions stay private, so that no firm can write a page aimed at the measurement instead of at the buyer. Ask me and I will tell you what changed since last month.
