Dale Hanks grew up camping in the Piney Woods and fishing in the lakes, bayous and bays of Southeast Texas. From an early age, he realized the irreplaceable value of nature's gifts - clean air and water - and the importance of keeping our environment free of toxic pollutants, safe for humans, wildlife, and plant life. He also realized that not all of our corporate neighbors in this area share that view, but instead seem content to put their chemical wastes into our community's air and water.

Dale has pursued his environmental concerns in his law career. After graduating from the University of Texas Law School in 1984, he immediately began to represent workers and community members who contracted cancer and other diseases caused by exposure to toxic chemicals. Although he has handled and will continue to handle all types of serious personal injury cases, Dale has concentrated his practice on the representation of victims of toxic exposures.

Dale is a member of the adjunct faculty of the University of Texas Medical School at Galveston, in the Department of Preventive Medicine and Community Health, where he has participated in teaching the legal aspect of occupational medicine to medical students.

Dale and his wife Karen, have two children.
