Chelsea N. Gillespie is a Houston-based plaintiff’s personal injury attorney whose practice is defined by two things: exceptional preparation and genuine advocacy. With a background spanning plaintiff-side litigation and defense work at an international maritime firm, Chelsea brings a 360-degree understanding of personal injury cases—one that allows her to anticipate problems before they arise and position her clients for maximum recovery.
Chelsea’s practice is concentrated in serious personal injury matters, including catastrophic injuries, workplace accidents, and commercial motor vehicle collisions. She is known for working up cases with uncommon thoroughness—building the kind of documented, well-supported file that drives meaningful settlements and, when necessary, compelling trial presentations.
A first-generation attorney and Magna Cum Laude graduate of Southeastern Louisiana University, Chelsea went on to distinguish herself at South Texas College of Law Houston, graduating in the top 10% of her class and earning CALI Awards—presented to the top-ranked student in each course—in five subjects, including Torts, Civil Procedure, and Civil Rights Litigation. Chelsea previously also volunteered with the Randy O. Sorrels Pro Bono Legal Clinic, providing free legal services to survivors of domestic violence—an experience that deepened her commitment to accessible, high-quality representation and continues to inform how she approaches every client relationship. She has carried that same commitment to excellence into every aspect of her legal career.
Clients who work with Chelsea consistently describe the same experience: an attorney who listens carefully, communicates honestly, and fights hard. She combines the empathy to understand the full human cost of serious injury with the strategic discipline required to translate that understanding into results.
Chelsea is licensed to practice in Texas state courts and the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. She is a proud member of the Houston Trial Lawyers Association (HTLA) and the American Association for Justice (AAJ).
Outside the office, Chelsea is a devoted dog mom to her Pitbull, Endymion (a name inspired by her New Orleans roots), who Chelsea describes as an impressively aggressive napper. Endymion has no comment.
