Dean Omar Branham Shirley partner honored for holding corporate giants accountable

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Premier plaintiffs firm Dean Omar Branham Shirley, LLP, is proud to announce that partner Jessica Dean has been named to The National Law Journal’s 2025 Elite Women of the Plaintiffs Bar, honoring women lawyers who have achieved exceptional results in high-stakes litigation on behalf of plaintiffs.

“I’m truly honored by this recognition,” said Ms. Dean. “I care deeply about my clients and so appreciate the nod towards my life’s work.”

Ms. Dean has built a national reputation for holding powerful corporations accountable, with a primary focus in recent years on litigation against Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ). Her work has secured millions of dollars in compensation for victims and families of those who have lost loved ones.

“I’m proud to work alongside Jessica,” said firm partner Trey Branham. “This honor is well-deserved and reflects her tireless advocacy.”

Ms. Dean has secured life-changing verdicts for victims of corporate negligence and exposed systemic abuses that allow powerful entities to evade accountability. She and her firm secured several verdicts in 2024, including $45 million from a Chicago jury in the death of a mother of six, Theresa Garcia. This case, like many others, was mired in delays due to Johnson & Johnson’s attempts to exploit the bankruptcy system to evade responsibility.

Earlier this year, Ms. Dean earned national recognition from legal guide Lawdragon, which named her to its prestigious 500 Leading Lawyers in America and its 500 Leading Plaintiff Consumer Lawyers lists.

The National Law Journal’s Elite Trial Lawyers Awards honor firms and attorneys who have achieved significant results and showcased an unwavering commitment to advancing justice for their clients.
