Dallas Fuel-Fed Fires Lawyers
Nationwide & Dallas Automobile Fire Attorneys
Motor vehicle accidents are already devastating; when these collisions lead to car fires, victims face a significantly higher risk of severe bodily injury and death. Unfortunately, fuel-fed motor vehicle fires are a reality—but they are also entirely preventable.
If you or someone you love was involved in a motor vehicle accident that led to a fuel-fed fire, you could have grounds for a personal injury lawsuit against the vehicle manufacturer or another liable party. At Lyons & Simmons, LLP, we believe that you should not have to simply suffer the consequences of someone else’s negligence on your own.
To learn more, contact us online or by phone at (844) 297-8898. Your initial consultation is completely free, and we do not collect attorney fees unless we win your case.

In a case that drew national attention, Lyons & Simmons attorneys Michael Lyons, Chris Simmons, Chris Carr, P. Wes Black, and Michael Wozniak won a record-setting $109.5 million verdict against CPS Energy after proving the company’s failure to maintain its gas system led to a devastating explosion and fire. The result not only delivered justice for the victims — it set a new standard for accountability in the utility industry.

The firm secured a landmark jury verdict for a client whose life was permanently changed after systemic hospital failures caused a nearly five-hour delay in emergency surgery, resulting in catastrophic paralysis. The case brought to light serious breaches of hospital policy and was recognized by Courtroom View Network as one of the nation’s top verdicts of 2022.
What Causes Car Fires?
Motor vehicles contain numerous flammable elements, including gasoline and brake fluid. The construction and placement of various engine components, including gasoline and brake fluid reservoirs, is critical—yet auto manufacturers continue to develop vehicles that pose serious risks to occupants.
Aside from brake fluid, the following vehicle components are flammable and often cause accident-related explosions and fires:
- Gasoline
- Oil
- Power steering fluid
- Antifreeze
- Lubricants
Various other engine components and vehicle elements are flammable. Even tires can catch fire and put vehicle occupants at risk of becoming trapped and severely burned.
