Truly blessed with hiring them
Chris Simmons and Felisha and all the staff did a wonderful job. They were patient with all my dad's questions. They are caring and helpful. They are always busy, but they always took their time answering questions and updating us, and I would highly recommend them even though my dad's case was hard. They managed to show empathy and care with my dad's situation. I highly recommend them. I hope our family won't need their services, but if we ever do (God forbid), we know who to trust and where to go. We're truly blessed with hiring them to represent my dad.

Spectacular Results & Client Orientation
I reached out to L&S the day after a motorcycle accident in 2023 and the same day, I was connected with Michael Fechner. Quickly after our retainer was inked, he and his team got to work.
Fetch (as he became known to me) earned my trust & confidence on the case. He kindly opened up his network, genuinely cared about making a meaningful connection, and made me aware of the things I needed to know and also shielded me from things that were immaterial. I thank you and the paralegal staff for driving spectacular results & to the leadership of the firm for their advocacy & client orientation.
If you are in need of a rooted & established law team to help with your legal matters, I can't recommend them enough.

Compassionate and knowledgeable representation
I can't say enough good things about Lyons & Simmons. My case was small in comparison to many cases, but I never felt small. Stephen Higdon always made me feel heard and seen all the while keeping me informed through every step of the process. He was compassionate, kind, and always available when I had questions. His scope of knowledge on the details of my case and all the parties involved was extensive. I wouldn't want anyone else representing me.

Empathy and dedication to my case
As someone whose life was altered by a workplace injury, I can't speak highly enough of Lyons and Simmons Law Firm. As soon as I called them, their attorneys, Christopher Simmons and Stephen Higdon, showed empathy and dedication to my case. Trying to figure out complex workplace injury law can be unnerving, but Christopher and Stephen's expertise put me at ease. They led me through every step of the legal process, making sure that I understood my rights and options. What really makes Lyons and Simmons unique is their commitment to securing the best possible outcome for their clients. They fought tirelessly on my behalf, advocating for the compensation and support I deserved. Their attention to detail and strategic approach resulted in a settlement that surpassed my expectations. Beyond their legal skill, Christopher and Stephen are caring individuals who prioritize their clients' well-being. They took the time to listen to my concerns and provided great emotional support throughout the journey. Lyons and Simmons secured the financial compensation I needed to move forward. I am very thankful for their representation and truly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal assistance for workplace injuries.

I knew I was in good hands
From the moment I met with Christopher and Stephen, I knew I was in good hands. They asked me to be patient and they would take care of things. I felt calm and stepped away. After some time, they called with the update followed by the final result. It was more than I expected. I never had to call for follow-ups because they called with periodic updates. I have made some new friends Uptown for sure. I highly recommend the team.
David Silber
Top-notch law firm
Lyons & Simmons is a top-notch law firm! Chris, Michael, and the rest of the team were very helpful throughout the entire process. They are the most professional, and I never doubted their expertise while handling my case. During a long period of uncertainty and difficulty, it was great to have them on my side to provide a sense of comfort and confidence. Our family will always be grateful for our experience with Lyons & Simmons!
Steven Barnett
Beacon of Hope and Exceptional Advocate
Exceptional legal representation! I cannot express enough gratitude for the unparalleled support and legal expertise provided by Stephen Higdon (Partner) of Lyons & Simmons. In the wake of an unimaginable tragedy — the loss of my beloved husband, Michael James Jackson, at the hands of a drunk driver — Stephen's unwavering commitment to justice and tireless advocacy proved to be nothing short of life-changing.
From our very first meeting, Stephen's compassionate approach and unparalleled professionalism immediately set him apart. His genuine empathy and understanding provided the comfort and assurance I so desperately needed during such a trying time. Throughout the process, Stephen exhibited a remarkable dedication to my case, leaving no stone unturned in his fierce pursuit of justice. His unwavering determination and strategic legal prowess were instrumental in not only securing a successful settlement, but also in bringing about meaningful change by holding those responsible accountable.
One of the most remarkable aspects of Stephen's approach was his dedication to ensuring that my husband, Michael, continues to live on through positive change. His relentless efforts not only achieved justice, but also made sure that something good came out of this devastating loss. With Stephen's guidance, we were able to close the bar that egregiously over-served the individual responsible for my husband's untimely passing, sending a powerful message about the consequences of reckless actions.
Stephen's meticulous attention to detail, combined with his exceptional courtroom presence, consistently instilled confidence in me. His clear communication and thorough explanations ensured that I was informed and empowered every step of the way, alleviating much of the stress associated with navigating the legal process.
In the end, Stephen's unwavering dedication and unparalleled legal acumen not only secured a favorable outcome, but also brought a sense of closure and justice to a deeply painful chapter of my life. I am forever grateful for Stephen's steadfast support, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a compassionate, tenacious, and highly skilled attorney.
Thank you, Stephen Higdon, for being a beacon of hope and an exceptional advocate in my time of need. Your impact goes far beyond legal representation — it's a testament to your unwavering commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of those you serve.

The fighting pride of Dallas, Texas
The track record speaks for itself. Lyons & Simmons is a law firm that has been built on, but not limited to, hard work, a desire to help those in immediate and desperate need after a tragedy has occurred. Utilizing their knowledge of experience and calling on experts to better understand the operations, concepts, and configuration of a particular lawsuit specifically designed for your situation. They understand that every case is different; therefore, they continue to have to be unique, fair, but firm while putting the pressure on at the right moment at the right time. Lyons & Simmons, in my opinion, is the fighting pride of Dallas, Texas! The litigation world is oftentimes ran and overruled by overpowering companies and can feel like an unfair fight. Lyons & Simmons are able to get on that level of playing field, becoming the equalizer that demands respect. You deserve the best, and at the end of the day, when you're trying to make a decision about who to call or who to trust, you have to go with your gut. 'When the result means everything.' Give these guys a call, give yourself the best shot possible. Thank you guys for taking care of me. When I couldn't fight for myself, you all stepped in and stepped up to the plate. You took on my case, and you fought to the finish. I can't thank you enough! The result increased my quality of life and gave me the best medical care out there. If I could give you 10 stars, I would! You deserve every single one! God bless, Lyons & Simmons!

We Highly Recommend This Law Firm
Michael Lyons & Simmons and associates helped us in a very supportive way while walking us through the process of getting our case settled. Michael Fechner and Suzanne Le Blanc went above and beyond answering any questions we had and communicating the status of our case on a consistent basis. We would absolutely recommend this firm if you ever find yourself in a situation warranting this type of legal assistance. We really appreciate all the work that was done, and the reassurance and support that this team offered during this hard time for our family. Having to find a lawyer is not an ideal situation, but the way this team helped us through our hardships was phenomenal. Thank you.
We truly highly recommend this law firm!

Exceeded My Expectations!
I am extremely satisfied and pleased with Stephen Higdon, Michael Lyons, and Melinda Goens at Lyons & Simmons. This was my first time using any law firm. For myself and probably any other person going through this experience for a first time, it can be a heavy weight on your shoulders finding the right law firm as well as trusting who you are working with. I interviewed with 3 other law firms before speaking with Michael Lyons. After 5 minutes of a phone call with Mike, I quickly made the decision to choose them. Mike and his team were more concerned with my health than any outcome this case could have led to. Mike then introduced me to Stephen Higdon who would oversee my case to give me great details on his process and the process we would soon follow.
Updates and Follow-Up:
Stephen Higdon, who I had worked with directly, had consistent follow-up, giving extreme detail to me and my family so that we could make great decisions throughout. Stephen is very analytical in his thoughts and delivery and gives you an amazing amount of information to alleviate any stress that I thought would come from this process. My words in this review could not express how comforted I was knowing that Stephen was doing everything in his power to ensure my comfort through my case. Ironically, when my wife would ask me if I heard from Mike or Stephen, I would usually just go to my email and see an update from him, or a voicemail with detailed information on the progress and next steps.
Paperwork:
Melinda Goens was an amazing and sweet person to contact to send any files or get in contact with Stephen or Mike if they were unavailable. She was quick to respond to any documents needed or files that needed to be delivered.
Overall:
If there were more stars to add to the review, I would rate them at 10! They exceeded my expectations! My family and I are extremely happy and comfortable knowing we chose such a great company to work with and continue to work with in the future!
A great amount of thanks goes out to the Lyons & Simmons, LLP team!

What is the statute of limitations for filing a claim?
The statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim varies by state, typically ranging from one to three years from the date of the accident. This time frame may vary depending on the specific circumstances of your case and the state where the accident occurred. It's crucial to consult with a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure you file your claim within the allowed period.
How is fault determined in an accident?
Fault is determined by examining the evidence and circumstances of the accident. This includes witness statements, police reports, traffic laws, and any available video footage. Insurance companies and, in some cases, the courts will use this information to assess who is responsible for the accident. An attorney can help gather evidence and argue your case if there is a dispute over fault.
Can I file a claim if I am partially at fault?
Yes, you may still file a claim even if you are partially at fault. Many states follow a comparative negligence rule, where compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are 20% at fault, your compensation would be reduced by that amount. An attorney can help you navigate this process and strive to maximize your compensation.
What if the other driver is uninsured?
If the other driver is uninsured, your own insurance policy may cover your damages through uninsured motorist coverage, if you have it. This coverage can help with medical expenses and property damage. Legal options may also be pursued to hold the uninsured driver accountable. An attorney can guide you on the best course of action in such situations.
