Justice Served:

Record Verdicts Achieved

For their successful pursuit of justice in the face of adversity, Lyons & Simmons attorneys Michael Lyons, Chris Simmons, Chris Carr, and Stephen Higdon have been awarded the Dallas Trial Lawyers Association’s prestigious 2021 John Howie Award. The honor is based on the trial team’s work representing an Alabama mother who lost three children in a tragic West Texas highway accident.
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.

Understanding Lithium-Ion Battery Risks and Defects

Lithium-ion batteries power much of our modern world — from electric vehicles and e-bikes to smartphones, laptops, and medical devices. While they offer efficiency and convenience, their design and chemistry also carry inherent risks. Manufacturing defects, poor quality control, or inadequate safety features can cause these batteries to:

Overheat or experience thermal runaway
Ignite and cause battery fires or explosions
Explode under normal use or charging conditions
Leak dangerous chemicals
Short-circuit due to faulty design or assembly

Button-shaped lithium-ion batteries, often found in children’s toys, watches, and remote controls, present unique dangers. If swallowed, these batteries can cause severe internal burns within hours, a life-threatening emergency, especially for children.

Who Can Be Held Liable for Battery-Related Injuries?

When a lithium-ion battery fire, explosion, or malfunction causes serious injury or death, multiple parties may bear legal responsibility. Products liability allows victims to hold manufacturers, distributors, and retailers accountable when their products are defective or unreasonably dangerous.

Potential defendants in these cases may include:

Battery manufacturers – for design defects, manufacturing defects, or failure to warn about known hazards.
Device manufacturers – if the product that housed the battery was improperly designed or failed to include safety measures to prevent overheating, short-circuiting, or other dangers.
Distributors and retailers – for selling defective products or failing to remove dangerous products from the market once problems became known.
Importers and component suppliers – for supplying unsafe parts or failing to meet applicable safety standards.
