Trial Attorney Bill Chamblee Named on 2014 Best Lawyers in Dallas List

Chamblee, Ryan, Kershaw & Anderson, P.C. announced that Dallas trial lawyer Bill Chamblee is being recognized as one of the city's top attorneys in D Magazine's 2014 Best Lawyers in Dallas list, which appears in the publication's May issue.

A true courtroom attorney, the firm noted, Chamblee has amassed more than 130 court victories on behalf of his clients during his 28- year legal career.

In a release, the firm said Chamblee, managing partner of Dallas- based Chamblee, Ryan, Kershaw & Anderson, P.C., handles a variety of complex commercial litigation, including defending transportation firms and medical professionals.

The D Magazine list of the city's best attorneys is based on a survey of local lawyers who were asked which attorneys they would rank among the best in Dallas. The survey results then were vetted by a panel of Dallas lawyers and D Magazine's editors.

"It's an honor to be recognized among the best attorneys in the city by my peers," says Chamblee. "My focus remains on getting results for clients. Many companies that are sued often settle cases even when they're not at fault based on the misplaced notion that they're saving on costs. But I've found that juries typically make the right decision when properly presented with the facts, which saves my clients a lot of money and headaches."

The firm said recent results obtained by Chamblee include:

-A take-nothing verdict on behalf of a transportation company facing a $3.5 million claim after a police cruiser struck an 18- wheeler.

-A take-nothing verdict in a medical negligence case against a Dallas gynecologist/oncologist who faced $825,000 in damages.

-The successful defense of a $2.5 million claim against a trucking company following a crash involving a car and an 18- wheeler.

Since 1998, Chamblee and the team at Chamblee Ryan have represented more than 500 health care providers against medical malpractice claims, winning favorable outcomes in a majority of cases they have taken to court.

Chamblee, Ryan, Kershaw & Anderson, P.C. is a Dallas-based trial firm, representing insurance companies, medical professionals, transportation providers, and health care institutions.
