William T. "Bill" Sebesta is an experienced and accomplished trial lawyer whose practice emphasizes insurance subrogation. After his initial training in insurance defense and bad faith litigation, he then spent 6-1/2 years with Cozen O’Connor’s Dallas office where he was trained in the art of large loss subrogation. In 2004, Bill returned to his hometown of Houston and continued his subrogation practice at a mid-size firm, focusing on energy-related losses.
In January 2007, Bill and Scot Doyen opened the doors of Doyen Sebesta Ltd. LLP, where Bill is in charge of the firm's subrogation practice group. Bill’s broad experience in subrogation litigation includes cases involving fire cause and origin, products liability, construction defects, commercial transactions, and personal injury. He also enjoys preparing and presenting CE courses to his insurance-based clients.
