JOSEPH F. BROPHY

Joseph F. Brophy has practiced law for nearly 30 years, starting with his time at the tort defense litigation boutique Ball & Weed, where he was trained and mentored by accomplished attorneys Ray Weed, Mike Myers and Brett Reynolds. There, Brophy gained invaluable jury trial experience, initially defending slip and fall cases and car accidents and quickly moving to more serious nursing home, products liability and business cases. With a substantial amount of experience for a four-year lawyer, Brophy moved to Austin and joined the legendary, now retired trial lawyer Dan Bishop, expanding the breadth of his practice with an emphasis on business litigation.

After focusing solely on litigation for more than a decade, Brophy had the opportunity to serve as general counsel for various companies while maintaining a private law practice. During the last 15 years, his law practice has expanded to include a broad spectrum of business matters and deals, while continuing to handle lawsuits in court and in arbitration.

Indeed, few lawyers can equal Brophy’s breadth of business law experience and expertise, making him one of the premier go-to lawyers for business and civil litigation and business deals.

Today, Brophy & Devaney handles a broad spectrum of civil lawsuits, including all types of business litigation and civil disputes. The Firm also has experience successfully handling a number

of high-net-worth divorce matters, particularly those involving significant assets and business interest.

Leading the Firm’s divorce practice is Marianne Barth, who has more than 20 years of family law experience handling high-asset cases in Southern California and Texas.

“At Brophy & Devaney, we enjoy the practice of law and take great joy in winning for our clients,” Brophy says. “We enjoy being a boutique, go-to business and civil litigation firm, which is known for bet-the-ranch or bet-the-company litigation. We have obtained this success and reputation through hard work, zealous representation of our clients and top-shelf legal acumen. No shortcuts are taken; we don’t cut corners. Nothing beats hard work, preparation, enjoying what you do and the confidence that nobody is better.”

In recognition of his advocacy, Brophy has been included in The Best Lawyers in America® for the last 10 years in Commercial Litigation and in the Texas Super Lawyers list of top-rated business and securities litigation lawyers. He also has been named in Princeton Global Networks’ Top 100 Lawyers in America and among America’s Top 100 High Stakes Litigators. As a young lawyer, Brophy served as chair of the Austin Bar Association Litigation Council, chair and co-chair of Austin’s Ultimate Trial Notebook Seminar and chair of the TYLA National Trial Competition.

When Uly Cruz was catastrophically injured on an airport tarmac at Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport in September 2019, his family turned to Randy and Alex Sorrels. Randy and Alex filed suit against the van driver who hit the wing walker and the fueling company who employed the driver. With $500 million in insurance coverage, the fuel company’s insurance carrier hired two of the best law firms in the nation to defend the case.

Mr.Cruz

Allied Aviation Van

Vehicle Service Road

A Harris County jury heard two weeks of evidence and returned the largest verdict for actual damages (no punitive damages) for an injured worker in United States history — $352.7 million. After the verdict, Randy noted, “We appreciate the close attention jurors paid during this trial. They returned a just verdict. Uly’s injuries are the worst I have ever seen and I would not have been surprised if the jury returned an even larger verdict.”

Tinsman & Sciano began its fifth decade and remains one of the most revered civil litigation and injury firms in Texas. CEO Daniel J.T. Sciano and the firm’s lawyers have decades of success. The firm has secured significant verdicts and settlements for victims and their families in the areas of personal injury and civil litigation.

“Our firm is comprised of true leaders in the legal and local community who are dedicated advocates for our clients,” said CEO Daniel J.T. Sciano, recognized by Best Lawyers® as “Lawyer of the Year” in San Antonio in 2010 and 2012 for Personal Injury Litigation–Plaintiffs. “Whether a client is injured or has suffered a terrible injustice—oftentimes both—we are honored by the trust they place in us to fight on their behalf.”

The firm’s advocacy made recent headlines for providing a strong voice in the courtroom and improving society at large: obtained a Federal Court judgment against the United States of America for the family of one of the 26 victims killed in the Sutherland Springs Baptist church mass shooting in 2017; resolved a wrongful death dispute in Bexar County that occurred due to unsafe cargo securement in which a family lost their only son; and, obtained a Texas State Court

judgment in Cameron County following a jury trial for catastrophic injuries sustained by a 75-yearold female passenger victimized by what the jury determined was a grossly negligent company driver who was speeding, texting and talking on the phone when he crashed his van head-on into the pickup driven by her husband that occurred on their 50th weddingScianoanniversary.hasachieved excellence outside the courtroom, as well, and goes to tremendous lengths to expand his trial law knowledge and experience. In Texas, only 1.1% of licensed lawyers are double board-certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization; Sciano is Board Certified in both Civil Trial Law & Personal Injury Trial law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. He is also Board Certified by the NBTA (National Board of Trial Advocacy) in Civil Trial Law and Civil Practice Advocacy.His40 plus years of experience as a trial lawyer have uniquely positioned Sciano as an esteemed legal authority. He is a frequent author and speaker at advanced personal injury and civil trial continuing legal education courses on such topics as trial and deposition strategy, products liability litigation, and Federal Motor

Carrier Safety Regulations. He was recognized for his professionalism and integrity in 2021 when the American Board of Trial Advocates (San Antonio Chapter) honored Sciano with the Legal Legend award.

The firm has been honored by the media and legal community, as well. U.S. News – Best Lawyers® “Best Law Firms” has awarded the firm a Tier 1 ranking in San Antonio for both Personal Injury Litigation–Plaintiffs and Medical Malpractice Law–Plaintiffs for 2022. Partner Stephen F. Lazor was also named a San Antonio “Lawyer of the Year” for Medical Malpractice Law–Plaintiffs in 2021 and 2018 by Best Lawyers. Best Lawyers also recognized firm member Lawrence J. Webb in 2022 for his advocacy in Personal Injury Litigation–Plaintiffs.“Weput in the hours and the effort to learn as much as possible, but it is an ongoing process,” Sciano said. “From the science of accident reconstruction to the technology we use in courtrooms, everything about the legal profession is evolving. It is our calling to stay at the forefront of these changes so that we can continually provide clients with the best and most insightful representation.”

CATASTROPHIC WRONGFUL DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY AND CIVIL TRIAL LAW

ESG LandscapeTexas’ChangingLegal

By Gregory Sirico

IN TODAY’S constantly changing legal landscape, a growing trend that has prevailed as an industry mainstay over the last few years is environmental, social and governance criteria, or ESG. ESG criteria is a set of industry standards for a firm or company to uphold in order to remain socially conscious. As of late, the viability standards used to rate the top law firms in certain states almost always start and end withOftenESG.utilized by outside investors screening a firm’s overall practices, ESG criteria focuses on three major aspects of operation: how a firm expresses concern and advocacy for the environment; how it manages and navigates relationships with associates, clients and their community; and how its leadership governs or organizes operations to ensure the firm runs

Onesmoothly.statein

particular that has seen a massive recent push for ESG criteria, specifically in the environmental area, is Texas. In September 2021, the Texas State Senate passed SB13, which now prohibits Texas based firms from contracting with or investing in companies that divest from the oil, natural gas and coal energy industry. This

legislation defines the term “divestment” as refusing to maintain business or represent a fossil fuel company actively operating outside the expectations of state and federal law. With the oil and natural gas sector accounting for nearly 10% of Texas’ gross domestic product, SB13 will more than likely limit the prospect of future business for corporate firms as well as effect the overall economy of the state.

Apart from the growing environmental push for ESG criteria, Texas state legislators are beginning to focus on evaluating the social aspects of the state, including its pension funds for public school, college and university employees. The Teacher Retirement System of Texas, which is among one of the largest institutional investments for the state, approximately held $200 billion in assets as of 2021. These drastic changes to the Texas legal landscape arrived just a year shy of Governor Abbott’s attempt to pass antiESG legislation, presumably meant to thwart off the now successful SB13. With Texas-based lawyers bracing for further pushbacks and major organizations begin to boycott ESG funds, firms will likely face a bevy of unknown challenges ahead as state legislation still needs to be ironed out.

BEST LAWYERS® BREAKS DOWN THE GROWING INDUSTRY TREND OF ESG STANDARDS AND HOW IT’S ALTERING THE FIELD OF LAW IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.

Since1995, Charla Truett has worked as a full-time attorney and legal counselor at the Richard A. Gump Jr. Law Group in Dallas, Texas, while also actively dedicating time to both the Dallas Bar Association as well as the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA).

Certified as an immigration specialist, Truett was named partner at her firm in 2001 and primarily focuses her time on legal practice areas such as immigration law and nationality law. Listed with Best Lawyers® since 2009, Truett is currently being recognized as “Lawyer of the Year” for Immigration Law in Dallas for 2022.

Of her award, Charla stated: “I’m honored to be recognized as a ‘Lawyer of the Year’ in Dallas, Texas for Immigration Law. The contributing factors, in my opinion, that have led to my current recognition are the accessibility from a practice area standpoint and consistency from myself and my peers. Every day I am committed to educating my clients on immigration law so that they understand the options, requirements and possible pitfalls that come with it. It’s truly rewarding to unravel any challenging case and find a solution for the client—whether it be a plan for an employee to obtain work authorization or a family to be able to remain in the U.S.”

Charla continued, “Our immigration system is dated and broken. It does not stand to serve U.S. employers seeking emigrating employees or individuals who want to assist in the immigration of their family members. It is common to hear—’I just want people to immigrate legally.’ As a lawyer in the practice area, we all do. But in order to do that, we need a system that is reasonable in terms of availability for legal options as well as sets appropriate legal timeframes. To be successful as an immigration lawyer, I try to put myself in my client’s shoes…what would I need to know? How would it make me feel? And how would I want someone to treat me? From returning a phone call to sending an email to delivering less than favorable news—I try to treat every client the way I would want to be treated.”

In addition to representing her clients in a number of immigration law cases, Truett has also garnered experienced in both employment law and business related immigration law as well, previously lecturing on issues such as worksite compliance, taxation of foreign nationals, student visas and relocation topics.

“The COVID-19 pandemic wreaked havoc on international travel—affecting many of our clients. We worked diligently to keep up to date with the requirements in order to properly request and obtain travel permission so that our clients’ business operations could continue as normally as possible. Our clients continue to require assistance navigating the long list of delays from the U.S. Consulates, who offer any new COVID-19 related travel requirements. With the Department of Homeland Security reinstituting prosecutorial discretion, we have been able to successfully terminate removal or deportation proceedings so that our clients, some who have been waiting for years, can immediately pursue residency.” Truett Law TX

As one of Texas’ trial lawyers, Dan Cogdell has been recognized in The Best Lawyers in America ® since 1995 and was previously selected as a “Lawyer of the Year” 2011 in Houston for white-collar criminal defense. While Cogdell spent the majority of his career practicing at his own boutique law firm—where he focused on white-collar criminal defense, grand jury investigations and internal investigations—he recently joined Jones Walker as a partner in the firm’s litigation practice group and a member of its corporate compliance and white collar defense team.

“Joining a well-resourced law firm like Jones Walker, which has approximately 355 lawyers and offices across the country, ensures that I can continue to provide my clients with the best service possible,” Cogdell says. “It also has allowed me to expand my practice beyond whitecollar and criminal defense and government investigations.”

While most trials were forced into hibernation due to the pandemic, there was no respite for Cogdell. In 2020 Cogdell represented the head of logistics for Arkema in litigation following the 2017 chemical plant explosion in Crosby, Texas, during Hurricane Harvey. “Months into the trial, the State dismissed my client’s case and then all the other defendants’ cases were likewise ultimately dismissed by the court as well,” Cogdell says. “The defense team that was assembled in that matter was as good as it gets.”

Likewise, in 2021, Cogdell and his Jones Walker associate Nick Norris tried multiple complex matters both in federal and state court. Cogdell also was part of a Jones Walker team that successfully defended an offshore drilling company in civil court in Houston last Fall. “I think I tried more cases during the pandemic than most

so-called ‘trial lawyers’ read during the pandemic,” Cogdell jokes.Over his career, Cogdell has served as trial counsel in hundreds of jury trials in scores of states, including some of the most high-profile and influential cases in the United States. For example, Cogdell secured an acquittal for his client in the Branch Davidian matter, obtained the only acquittal in any of the Enron prosecutions, obtained an acquittal for alternative cancer treatment physician Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski and secured a “not guilty” verdict for his client in the Houston City Hall scandal case. He also has successfully represented multiple judges and lawyers.

“Despite approaching four decades in courtrooms all over this state and country, my passion for achieving the best outcome possible for my clients in a courtroom hasn’t diminished a whit,” he notes.

Given this experience, Cogdell frequently lectures on trial tactics for the State Bar of Texas, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association and multiple other bar associations. In 2011, he was inducted into the prestigious American College of Trial Lawyers which selects only the top-rated trial lawyers in the world to its ranks. He also has received multiple “Lifetime Achievement Awards” as well as the Distinguished Alumni Award from South Texas College of Law. He was also recognized by the Texas Lawyer in 2016 for a Lifetime Achievement Award.

In his spare time, Dan rides and races off road motorcycles. “I don’t hunt, I don’t fish and I don’t play golf. I ride off road motorcycles as I have done since the 8th grade. I guess like trying cases, once I find something I enjoy, I continue doing it till I am too old. And so far, there is no end in sight for either.”

“SO FAR, THERE IS NO END IN SIGHT.”

JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED.

Courthouse doors across the country were shuttered for jury trials during most of 2020 and 2021. Despite the significant hurdle, Daniel J.T. Sciano and his team worked tirelessly toward the goal of voluntary or involuntary resolution of his clients’ cases during this time. When the doors reopened, Daniel J.T. Sciano was one of the first to return to the Federal and State Court House arenas to seek justice for his clients. Sciano was part of a team of lawyers who tried a multiparty, Federal Tort Claims Act case to judgment against the United States of America related to the government’s neglect that resulted in Texas’ largest mass shooting: 26 fatalities and 22 wounded at the Sutherland Springs First Baptist Church.

The Federal District Court trial was bifurcated into liability and damages phases. In between phases, Sciano and other members of his firm seamlessly pivoted, tried to a jury and obtained a judgement for their client in a State District Court in Cameron County, Texas. The victim in that case was a 75-year-old woman that was a passenger in a pick-up that was struck head-on by a company vehicle operated by what the jury found was a grossly negligent driver. The jury also found that the company was reckless in employing the driver who had a history of accidents and was a habitual speeder, texter and talker while driving.

While in the midst of those two complex trials, he was able to voluntarily resolve a case in Wisconsin State Circuit Court for a client that was

catastrophically burned due to a negligently maintained farm tractor when fuel erupted from the gas tank, ignited and engulfed the operator in flames.The range of cases

Dan

LawyerRenaissanceSciano

By Justin Smulison

Sciano has litigated and been lead counsel on over his 40 years of practice is diverse. Consumer product liability claims involving home appliances, fireworks injuries, flammable garment claims, swimming pool injuries and fatalities, claims of inadequate security, premises liability, plane and train crashes, carbon monoxide poisoning, truck and automobile accidents, construction site and oil filed injuries and fatalities, fiduciary litigation, oil and gas royalty litigation, will contests and inheritance controversies and insurance and business disputes represent an abridged list of the types of claims and cases Sciano has resolved on behalf of his clients either voluntarily or involuntarily.

Sciano is also not afraid to get dirty in his search for justice for his clients. He recently found himself in a cemetery, helping an anthropologist in exhumations to recover DNA evidence from two grave sites to help resolve a dispute involving the identity of lawful heirs to a substantial estate.

Sciano, who Best Lawyers® recognized as a San Antonio “Lawyer of the Year” in 2010 and

2012 for Personal Injury Litigation–Plaintiffs, adds that will and estates litigation is representative of the diversity of cases that he and the lawyers of Tinsman & Sciano are equipped to handle. Sciano and the firm of Tinsman & Sciano built a reputation as highly skilled trial lawyers and have secured significant verdicts, judgments and settlements in catastrophic injury, trucking litigation and wrongful death matters, among others.

The firm continues to represent victims of defective products or as a result of neglect who have sustained nearly every type of injury, in addition to clients involved in a wide array of civil litigation in need of experienced trial lawyers. “Lawsuits are, by their very nature, chaotic and require a skilled and experienced trial practitioner with strong hand on the helm,” Sciano notes. “We want every client that seeks justice to know they have a fighter in their corner, no matter where that corner is, nor how dire the situation may seem.” ●

Tinsman & Sciano recently celebrated 50 years as greater San Antonio’s leading trial law firm for civil litigation and personal injury. Daniel J.T. Sciano obtained judgments for his clients in both Federal and State courthouses in 2021. Sciano is a trial lawyer with many talents and diverse knowledge of the law.

“I was in a grave, six feet down, during an exhumation helping an Anthropologist obtain DNA evidence needed to help the parties resolve an estate dispute concerning who were lawful heirs.”

Measuring Success by Results

Recognized Best Lawyers®* recipient Joseph F. Brophy on how his Firm determines success

By John Fields

Despite the unprecedented disruption caused by the pandemic, it has not stopped Brophy & Devaney (“Brophy”) from achieving great results for its clients across Texas and the United States, inside and outside of the courtroom.

From business divorces, breach of contract actions, major commercial property disputes and insurance actions to shareholders disputes, legal malpractice claims and unfair business competition actions, Brophy has been busy racking up wins for the firm’s clients in 2021 and 2022.

“It still all boils down to being passionate about what you do, working hard, being prepared and telling a persuasive story that judges and jurors can relate to in a manner consistent with the rules of evidence and procedure,” says Brophy of his success. “We will never lose because we have been out-lawyered, and our clients can rest assured of that. Lawyers and other professionals cannot be guarantors or insurers of results, but the primary objective must be achieving the best result for the client, weighing all factors in light of the net effect upon the client.”

Beyond achieving litigation wins in and out of federal and state courts and

arbitrations, Brophy continues to represent individuals, family offices and businesses with their general counsel needs on a wide range of business and financial issues.

While most business litigators have limited trial experience, Brophy began his

charm, what the city is gaining in industry and people far exceeds the cost,” Brophy says. “We have so many interesting people and businesses coming to Austin; there has never been a more exciting time to be in Austin. Colleagues from New York City, California and throughout the country are reaching out more frequently as Austin has a growing connection to national and global business deals and resulting litigation.”

career as an insurance defense lawyer where cases were often tried to a jury, which appealed to his competitive nature. The skills Brophy developed as a young trial lawyer have only been seasoned and sharpened as he has continued to handle larger and more complex cases over the last 25

Whileyears.theFirm’s practice has continued to expand nationally, it remains very active in Austin, which has seen considerable growth over the past few years. “While traffic is worse, real estate is more expensive and Austin is losing some of its small city

As a result, Brophy is handling lawsuits touching upon the Tesla Gigafactory; new developments in downtown, south and north Austin; and business deals and lawsuits involving people from across the globe and issues that impact people and businesses in Austin and far beyond. He also continues to represent long-time Austinites, long-standing local businesses and various professionals in Austin, ranging from other lawyers to doctors to financial professionals and other businesspersons.

Brophy is very optimistic and enthusiastic about the emergence from the pandemic and getting back to in person meetings and trials. “Zoom has been great, but nothing is as effective as meeting in person,” he says. ●

Truck Safety Watchdogs: Unqualified, Poorly Trained Truck Drivers and Unsafe Trucks Heighten Roadway Dangers

Lax hiring and training practices by the U.S. trucking industry have contributed to a crisis on our roads and highways.

On roads and highways across the country, preventable crashes, injuries and deaths involving large trucks are at or near record levels. The 4,798 fatality crashes involving trucks reported in 2020 reflect a 50% increase since 2009, according to the most recent statistics from the Federal Motor Carrier Administration. The shocking number of preventable truck-related deaths is put in stark relief considering the annual death toll is well more than the 2,977 people who died on 9/11. These increasing numbers are reason to pause and consider how much we have spent to prevent another 9/11 when compared to what the trucking industry actually spends on safety. Further, the grim statistics have increased despite decades of safer vehicles, better engineered lanes, drunken driving crackdowns and governmentsponsored safe-driving campaigns. Meanwhile, routine safety inspections are finding an alarming number of large trucks in violation of basic safety and maintenance standards with approximately one in five failing inspection and deemed unfit for the road.

“When the trucking industry cuts corners on safety, roadway deaths increase. It’s that simple,” said trial lawyer Frank L. Branson, founder of Dallas-based Law Offices of Frank L. Branson. “Drivers are overworked and many lack experience and basic safety training. When trucking companies put inexperienced and unqualified drivers on the road, you get what you asked for. It’s a real recipe for disaster, and the transportation industry bears responsibility for allowing it to happen.”

Branson, who founded the Law Offices of Frank L. Branson, has been exposing dangerous practices by trucking companies since the 1980s when he first won recordsetting jury verdicts and settlements that have raised awareness about truck safety. Too often, these tragedies are linked to fatigue, lack of training and inadequate

supervision. In addition, investigations routinely find drug and alcohol abuse by drivers that could have been caught by proper background checks and screening during the hiring process and required DOT drug and alcohol testing.

“Thanks to lax legislative oversight and a powerful lobby, many of these companies see no incentive in investing in safety. Preventable deaths and serious injuries have become a cost of doing business for them,” Branson said. “This is occurring because of the trucking industry is putting profit over safety, pure and“There’ssimple.”no excuse for cutting safety when 40-ton 18-wheelers are sharing the roads with motorists,” Branson said. “Transportation companies place safety last because they understand that government regulation and oversight is largelyBransontoothless.”closed by saying: “These same trucking companies, after large donations to the legislature, managed to get tort reform relief in the last legislative session. This reminds me of how fortunate we all are that rattlesnakes, scorpions and black widow spiders are not able to lobby the legislature.” ●

“Last year 4,480 people died in collisions on Texas highways, the most since 1981.”

Unwavering Dedication to Clients

Trial attorneys Michael Lyons and Chris Simmons find motivation when the result means everything.

THERE are a lot of moving parts to success for trial lawyers, particularly in high-exposure personal injury and wrongful death cases. But for Lyons & Simmons co-founders Michael Lyons and Chris Simmons, finding a way to control the things that can be controlled has proven to be key to their success.

“It is no secret that hard work will always make a difference in anything that you do, and it is something we actively embrace. When the result means everything, there is never an excuse for being outflanked,” says Lyons. “We feel like no one is going to outwork us on our cases. Thinking about the endgame from the outset and preparing from start to finish takes time, energy and resources, but when you are fighting for the rights of your client, it’s the best way to ensure a win.”

The ownership over clients’ legal outcomes displayed by the highly skilled trial lawyers of Lyons & Simmons, paired with their fearless approach to courtroom battle, has earned the firm a national reputation for securing remarkable results, even when the odds are seemingly stacked against them.

When Neva Rogers came to Lyons & Simmons, several attorneys had already turned down her case, saying that while tragic, she had an unwinnable case.

Early on a rainy winter morning, an employee of an energy services company was speeding down a West Texas highway in his personal vehicle on his way to work when he lost control on the slick road, slamming into a car carrying Ms. Rogers’ three minor children, all of whom died.

Although the driver was subsequently convicted of criminally negligent homicide, Lyons and Simmons knew that the responsibility for the accident also was

shared by the driver’s employer, which had a policy that required workers to “show up” at a job site on inclement weather days in order to get paid. Further incriminating the company, the Lyons & Simmons trial team learned that the employer literally set fire to 40 banker boxes of documents related to the case. It took a court-ordered forensic examination to fully reveal pertinent

documents.Thejuryreturned

an award, believed to be the largest-ever personal injury verdict in Midland County. The firm’s dedication to justice earned it the Dallas Trial Lawyers Association’s prestigious 2021 John Howie Award, presented to attorneys and their clients in recognition of the “courageous pursuit of justice in the face of adversity.”

“Neva suffered an unimaginable tragedy. As a parent, I cannot comprehend the immense pain she has endured,” says Lyons. “We knew the liability case was difficult against the company and we knew there was a probability this was not going to result in a favorable verdict. Despite knowing that from the outset, as parents, we knew we had to take the case and see it through.”Financial restitution is simply not enough in cases such as this, says Lyons. “Early on in our accident-site investigation we began to see that there were unacceptable corporate practices that were not just being allowed, but in certain situations also encouraged.

That was confirmed through the course of depositions.” Simmons agrees, stating:

“When you are entrusted with the representation of a victim of a catastrophic personal injury or wrongful death, you feel the weight of that responsibility. These often involve individuals who are facing the biggest adversity they will ever be forced to endure. Their lives have been torn apart, and all too often they also find the legal deck is stacked against them.”

Since its formation, Lyons & Simmons has handled some of the most important and complex cases in the country, securing record-setting results. In addition to the Midland County verdict, the firm obtained what is believed to be the largest settlement in the state of Oklahoma’s history for a single adult wrongful death claimant, and secured a large confidential settlements in New Mexico cases involving a defective cell phone battery prone to catching fire as well as a high-profile helicopter crash. The firm’s work on behalf of a former Power 5 head football coach in a contentious breach of contract case earned a place among the finalists for the National Law Journal ’s Elite Trial Lawyers Awards.

“We’ve said it many times, but our clients’ problems are our problems, and we’re not going to stop until we find a way to right what wrong they have experienced,” says Simmons. “That approach resonates with our clients, and we will never take their trust for granted.”

“It doesn’t matter if it is someone killed in a high-profile workplace accident or irreparably injured in an incident that barely made the evening news, everyone deserves justice,” says Lyons. “We do not, cannot, step back until we do everything we can for our clients and their families. We are unwavering in our fight for all of our clients.” ●

“When the result means everything, there is never an excuse for beingoutflanked.”

A TRIAL ICON READY FOR HIS CLOSE UP

A Netflix series and a documentary shine a lighton Dan Cogdell’s storied career

Few attorneys can equal the success at trial that Dan Cogdell has achieved over his near fourdecade-long career. As trial counsel in hundreds of trials across a dozen states and far too many cities to remember, he has successfully represented professional athletes, CEOs, doctors, members of law enforcement, lawyers, mayors, judges, politicians and many others in matters involving a myriad of offenses. Among these cases are some of Texas’ most high-profile and influential trials—two of which are now being highlighted in a Netflix series and a documentary.Awatershed moment in Cogdell’s career came in the mid-1990s, when he achieved an acquittal for his client in the conspiracy to murder federal law enforcement trial for one of 11 Branch Davidians following the siege of their compound near Waco, Texas. The group had been charged with a variety of charges including conspiracy, murder and attempted murder of federal law enforcement officers following a botched raid by the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The events that transpired during the Branch Davidian siege were dramatized in the popular Netflix miniseries “Waco,” which was the top-rated show on that platform during the pandemic. Now a new series is in production that focuses on the Branch Davidian trial itself. To be released in late 2022/ early 2023, the series will feature Cogdell as the lead character in the series.

“I saw firsthand in the Branch Davidian trial how vital competent criminal defense counsel is to the

legal system, and I think it’s important for these events to be revisited,” Cogdell says. “That case really represented the specter of an out-of-control government, and people should be outraged by what the government did. I am really excited that the new series will highlight what we—the defense lawyers—were able to accomplish in that trial. Working with the producers of that show and with

achieve probation for our client despite probably the most horrific evidence I have ever seen. Though the result was not necessarily a popular one, it was the right one all things considered. More importantly, that experience again reinforced the notion that the lawyer you hire can make all the difference in the outcome of the trial,” Cogdell says. This documentary has been filmed and should be released sometime in 2023.

the actor who is playing me, Giovanni Ribisi, has been surreal. I got to visit onset during some of the shooting of the show and I think it will be fantastic.”

In addition to the Branch Davidian trial, another case that Cogdell handled toward the beginning of his career is now also being spotlighted with a new documentary. In that trial, the “Texas Slave Ranch Trial,” the prosecution claimed that Cogdell’s client had tortured an individual and caused his death by shocking the alleged victim with a cattle prod. To disprove the idea that a cattle prod caused the death of that individual, Cogdell shocked himself with a cattle prod while cross-examining the State’s pathologist—who had testified that the death of the deceased was caused by a cattle prod. “That case was one of my first major trials with my mentor and trial legend, Richard ‘Racehorse’ Haynes, who is now deceased. We were able to

“Even though my practice has evolved considerably since these cases—particularly since joining Jones Walker and transitioning to including some civil cases versus only handling criminal work—I can look back on those trials and be proud of the results I was able to achieve for my clients. Ultimately, my efforts speak for themselves and define who I am professionally. Without throwing my shoulder out of socket patting myself on the back, I can honestly say that while I may not be great at a lot of things, I am a damn fine trial lawyer,” Cogdell quips.

At 65 years old, some of Cogdell’s peers are either retired or soon will be, but not him: “Frankly, I can’t imagine my day consisting of sleeping in, watching sports events on television or playing golf. Hell, I am doing what I have always done— representing clients to the best of my ability and in my spare time riding off road motorcycles. As long as the good Lord lets me do those things, I have zero intention of slowing down. In fact, my amazing wife Robin and I have the great fortune of raising our 8-year-old grandson and if that won’t keep me young, I don’t know what will!”

KentSchaffer is recognized as one of the most influential attorneys in the State of Texas. His career has spanned forty years and during that time he has been lead counsel in nearly 100 jury trials. His clients have included many well-known individuals, including elected officials, celebrated actors, musicians, and writers, religious leaders, corporate officers and directors and numerous corporations in cases including money laundering, bank fraud, wire fraud, healthcare fraud, violations of the FCPA, and complex criminal and civil litigation.

Mr. Schaffer’s practice also includes highly sensitive white-collar investigations for both companies and individuals; having recently recovered over two hundred million dollars in stolen funds and assets for a major corporation in Asia. His investigative skills were honed during his five years as an investigator for the legal legend, Richard “Racehorse” Haynes.

Mr. Schaffer has twice been recognized as White Collar Crime “Lawyer of the Year” by Best Lawyers® (2013 & 2017) in Houston and has been recognized by Chambers (Band 2), Super Lawyers (since 2008), and Martindale Hubbell. He is a past president of the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association and the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association and has lectured on topics such as cross examination, money laundering, pretrial investigation, bail & detention, opening & closing statements, parallel civil & criminal investigations, and negotiations for the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyer, Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, Louisiana Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association, and numerous law schools.
