Dallas-based firm in running for honor from The
National Law Journal
Dean Omar Branham Shirley, LLP, a plaintiffs firm known for
securing significant verdicts in mesothelioma cases, is a finalist
for The National Law Journal’s 2024 Elite Trial Lawyers award for
products liability.
Candidates for the award must dedicate at least 50 percent of
their litigation resources to representing plaintiffs. Winners in
several categories will be announced on July 11 in New York
City.
“This is a tribute to the hard work of every person in our firm.
The entire staff and attorneys here all work so hard for our
clients. I am grateful to each of them,” says name partner Trey
Branham. “We know that no dollar amount can replace someone’s life.
We push relentlessly against corporations that disregard humanity.
We appreciate it when the legal community recognizes us for
that.”
The firm is widely known for its success in cases against
pharmaceutical companies and corporations for asbestos-related
safety violations. Recently, the firm secured a victory before the
Wisconsin Court of Appeals, which upheld a jury’s verdict against
Pabst Brewing Co. in the death of a worker exposed to asbestos at
its factory.
The firm also prevailed recently in Cook County Circuit Court in
Chicago, where a jury found the defendant liable for the
asbestos-related death of a woman who was both a mother and
grandmother and returned a verdict of $45 million.
Law.com and The National Law Journal’s editors and reporters
select the Elite Trial Lawyers honorees out of hundreds of entries.
The awards acknowledge law firms' exceptional plaintiffs work in
high-stakes bench trials, jury trials or major settlements and
honors those that have demonstrated an impressive track record of
wins over the last three to five years.
