About Benjamin Doyle
Benjamin D. Doyle is a partner at Stockard, Johnston, Brown, Netardus & Doyle, P.C. and the firm’s lead attorney for insurance coverage disputes and business litigation. He earned his Juris Doctor from Baylor University School of Law and has been licensed in Texas since 2012. In the years since joining the firm, Ben has built one of the most technically sophisticated insurance coverage practices in the Amarillo area — combining deep knowledge of Texas insurance law with an insider’s understanding of how insurance companies evaluate, dispute, and deny claims.
That insider knowledge extends to the technical details that determine how claims are assessed and contested. In 2022, Ben was invited to act as a member for the Board of Directors for the State Bar of Texas Insurance Law Section. In that capacity, he helped coordinate continuing legal education events and subject matter training materials for Texas insurance lawyers. In 2025, Ben was invited to speak at the Texas Association of Public Insurance Adjusters’ spring conference — presenting on cosmetic damage exclusions in insurance policies, one of the most actively litigated areas in Texas insurance law and the most common basis for disputed hail damage claims in the Amarillo market. That credentialing as a recognized expert among professional insurance adjusters reflects the depth of technical knowledge he brings to every claim he handles. As an insurance coverage attorney in Amarillo, Texas, Ben challenges insurer positions on the same technical ground they use to dispute his clients’ claims.
Ben’s litigation record includes co-securing a $3.7 million judgment against a property owner in a complex property damage case tried in Dallas — alongside founding partner Dusty Stockard. He has also tried bad faith insurance disputes in multiple states and obtained bad faith jury findings. He has been selected to the Super Lawyers Rising Stars list routinely from 2017 through 2026, a recognition that places him among the top up-and-coming attorneys in Texas and reflects the consistent quality of his work over nearly a decade of practice.
