Biografía
Jacy L. Pawelek is a trial attorney at Janicek Law Firm, where she represents plaintiffs in personal injury and medical malpractice cases throughout Texas. Her practice is focused on serious injury and wrongful death matters, many of which involve complex liability issues, multiple defendants, and aggressive defense strategies.
Since becoming licensed in 2021, Jacy has built a practice centered on high-stakes litigation. She regularly handles cases involving corporate defendants, insurance carriers, and governmental entities, and is experienced in navigating issues such as premises liability, negligent entrustment, catastrophic motor vehicle collisions, and recreational and ranch-related incidents. Her work often involves developing legal strategies that address both direct and vicarious liability theories, including nuanced issues like vice-principal liability and statutory defenses.
Jacy is actively involved in every phase of litigation—from pre-suit investigation and case development through discovery, depositions, mediation, dispositive motion practice, and trial. She has significant experience drafting and arguing complex motions, including summary judgment, and building cases designed to withstand appellate scrutiny. She is known for her strategic, aggressive advocacy and meticulous preparation in high-pressure litigation, always with a focus on positioning her cases for maximum leverage and meaningful results.
She is licensed to practice law in both Texas and New Mexico and handles matters in courts throughout the region.
Jacy earned her Juris Doctor, cum laude, from Texas Tech University School of Law, where she developed a strong foundation in trial advocacy and litigation strategy. She received her Bachelor of Arts, magna cum laude, from Texas State University.
She is an active member of the San Antonio Bar Association, the San Antonio Trial Lawyers Association, and the Texas Trial Lawyers Association.
Outside of her legal practice, Jacy remains closely connected to her family’s ranching operation, Palahala Ranch, where she spends time working with and caring for exotic wildlife. She enjoys spending time outdoors, working with animals, and being involved in the continued growth of the ranch, with a particular interest in animal breeding and the development of high-quality bloodlines, and values the hands-on work and long-term commitment that come with it.
Jacy also enjoys spending time with her dogs, Gwen and Gunner, and following college basketball—she rarely misses a game when the Texas Tech Red Raiders are playing.

After a really traumatic car accident, this team , specifically Nyssa and Jacy had my back every step of the way. They made the whole process way less stressful and handled everything with care and confidence during some really tough times. They are really responsive and honest.They helped our family get back on our feet. I’m so thankful I had them in my corner!

Otro conductor me chocó y sufrí heridas muy graves. Me puse en contacto con el bufete de abogados Janicek y todos fueron muy serviciales y profesionales. Todo su equipo es profesional y responde muy bien y me mantiene informado sobre mi caso. Jacy me representó y respondió a todas mis preguntas. Jacy me ayudó a entender el proceso por el que estaba pasando mi caso y se aseguró de que obtuviera respuestas rápidamente. Nunca he tenido un accidente automovilístico ni he tenido que hacer una declaración y Jacy se aseguró de que estuviera preparado en todos los aspectos de la declaración. Nadie quiere pasar por una situación en la que esté lesionado o tenga un accidente, pero es bueno saber que hay buenos bufetes y abogados que cuidarán de usted. Gracias al equipo.

Mi caso fue manejado de manera profesional y rápida. Trabajar con Cassidy y Jacy fue muy agradable. Directos y corteses. Definitivamente volvería a utilizar los servicios de Janicek Law Office si alguna vez los necesitara. Gracias una vez más.

Cuando decidí emprender acciones legales, me aterrorizaba pensar cuánto tiempo podría durar, ya que nunca había demandado a nadie antes. El equipo de Janicek Law logró un resultado fantástico antes incluso de tener que ir a los tribunales y consiguió que me cubrieran todos los límites y negociaron la reducción de mis facturas médicas. ¡Muy recomendable!
