Dallas Auto Products Liability Lawyers
Car Defect Lawyers Handling Cases Nationally
The law requires that cars, trucks and SUVs be designed to meet certain specifications to protect occupants in a crash, but safety systems may prove inadequate. Air bags may fail to deploy, handling or stability problems may cause a high clearance vehicle to roll over, or roof supports are inadequately designed to protect the occupants in a crash. These situations may all be the result of a defect in the vehicle.
Our lawyers handle cases involving vehicle defect claims ranging from cars, trucks and SUVs to buses and heavy equipment all over the country. We have experience with all types of defect claims including crashworthiness, handling and stability, safety systems defects dealing with restraints, air bags, and side curtain airbags, tire defects, glass defects, and structural defects.

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.

Mi experiencia con el Sr. Mike Lyons, el Sr. Chris Simmons y su equipo fue excepcional. Manejaron mi caso con tal profesionalidad que me sentí muy tranquila. No me sentí como un simple número de caso ni como una clienta más. Fueron muy atentos con la familia, lo que me hizo sentir que la mía era su prioridad. Siempre me mantuvieron al tanto del estado de todos los trámites y, si tenía alguna inquietud, la atendían. Respetaron todas mis decisiones. Espero no tener que volver a contratar sus servicios, pero si lo necesitara, Mike y Chris serían mi primera opción. Creo que nos hemos hecho buenos amigos. Recomendaría a Lyons & Simmons a cualquiera que busque lo mejor en representación legal. Muchas gracias de parte de la familia Waldridge. ¡Que Dios los bendiga!

Un fatal accidente aéreo dejó a mi familia sumida en una profunda angustia. Siendo una joven viuda y madre de un bebé, estaba aterrorizada e insegura sobre cómo seguir adelante en un mundo que lo había trastocado todo. Lyons & Simmons se convirtió rápidamente en el pilar que mantuvo unida a nuestra familia. Todo su equipo me acompañó y me guio hacia las siguientes etapas de mi vida con confianza y ternura."
Cuando la pandemia de COVID-19 azotó una semana después del accidente, Lyons & Simmons continuó trabajando diligentemente en medio de los cierres mundiales. Si bien defienden con esmero a sus clientes, su trabajo es genuino y sincero. No se han insensibilizado ante las trágicas experiencias de sus clientes, y gracias a ellos he encontrado apoyo en todos los sentidos. Mis preguntas reciben respuestas completas y oportunas. Hacen hincapié en la estrategia y realizan un análisis exhaustivo de cada caso.
Lyons & Simmons ha forjado y mantiene sólidas relaciones con personas de todos los ámbitos de su práctica. La profesionalidad demostrada por Mike, Chris, Melinda y los demás es inigualable, y su capacidad para iluminar incluso las situaciones más difíciles es verdaderamente admirable. Admiro al equipo de Lyons & Simmons y seguiré agradeciendo a Dios por el trabajo que han realizado por mí y por mi hijo hasta el último día de mi vida.
