In addition, the publication recognized Lyons & Simmons for the first time for its work in plaintiffs product liability litigation and plaintiffs mass torts litigation/class actions, reflecting the firm’s growing impact across a wide range of complex litigation matters.

Among its notable cases this year, the firm secured a $109.5 million jury verdict against CPS Energy for its role in a catastrophic San Antonio home explosion that left residents with severe, life-altering injuries. The verdict provided critical financial relief for victims and sent a clear message about safety and accountability, upholding the firm’s record in driving changes in corporate practices to protect the public.

Published by The Best Lawyers in America, the Best Law Firms guide evaluates firms through a combination of client feedback, peer review, and proven courtroom performance. To be eligible, a firm must have at least one attorney recognized in Best Lawyers. Earlier this year, Lyons & Simmons earned that distinction with four attorneys named to Best Lawyers and four included in Ones to Watch, for emerging practitioners.

These latest accolades follow the firm’s inclusion in the 2025 Chambers USA Regional Spotlight Guide for its plaintiff-side personal injury work, as well as recognition of its attorneys on Texas Super Lawyers and D Magazine’s Best Lawyers in Dallas lists.
