National plaintiffs trial firm Dean Omar Branham Shirley, LLP, (DOBS) has earned a Tier 1 ranking in the 2027 edition of Best Law Firms just one year after making its debut in the prestigious legal guide. The firm is recognized in the plaintiffs personal injury litigation practice category for Dallas-Fort Worth.

This follows another year of significant courtroom victories on behalf of individuals and families affected by asbestos exposure and mesothelioma, an aggressive cancer linked to asbestos. In most of these instances, clients did not live to see the conclusion of their case. These included:

  • A $10 million jury verdict against Johnson & Johnson in Louisiana on behalf of the family of Lynne Roy.

  • A Los Angeles jury awarded $32 million to the family of Maria Lozano.

  • An Illinois appeals court affirmed a $45 million jury verdict awarded to the family of Theresa Garcia, upholding a significant trial result against Johnson & Johnson and Kenvue.

“Our clients come to us during an unimaginably difficult time in their lives, and we are committed to holding the corporations accountable for the harm they’ve caused to these people,” said firm partner Trey Branham. “We’re grateful for the recognition, but it really is a testament to the dedication of our entire staff to our clients.”

Best Law Firms, presented by The Best Lawyers in America, recognizes law firms for professional excellence based on feedback from clients and legal professionals, peer review and additional firm information. Firms must have at least one attorney recognized in the current edition of The Best Lawyers in America to be eligible.
