Michael R. De Leon

Michael R. De Leon is a Texas-licensed attorney, U.S. Marine veteran, and the founder of The Law Office of Michael R. De Leon, PLLC, based in Edinburg, Texas. His practice is focused on one thing: helping South Texas homeowners and business owners get the insurance settlements they are owed after storm damage.

Before becoming an attorney, Mr. De Leon served in the United States Marine Corps — an experience that instilled the discipline, tenacity, and commitment to service that defines how he approaches every case. He brings that same mission-focused mindset to the courtroom and the negotiating table, fighting for clients who deserve a fair outcome.

Over the course of his legal career, Mr. De Leon has settled thousands of insurance claims on behalf of South Texas property owners. That depth of experience means he knows the tactics insurers use to minimize payouts — and exactly how to counter them. Every client benefits from that hard-won knowledge, no matter the size of their claim.

The Rio Grande Valley and South Texas are no strangers to severe weather. Hailstorms, high winds, and hurricanes regularly damage homes and commercial properties across the region — and insurance companies don't always respond fairly. When an insurer denies a legitimate claim, delays payment without justification, or offers a settlement that doesn't cover the actual damage, Mr. De Leon and his team step in to fight for a fair outcome — with no out-of-pocket attorney fees unless a recovery is made.

Mr. De Leon is bilingual and serves clients in both English and Spanish. His office is located in Edinburg and serves clients throughout Hidalgo County, Cameron County, Starr County, Webb County, Nueces County, and beyond.
