Ty Stimpson Named Best Personal Injury Attorney in Dallas
Ty Stimpson, a partner at Varghese Summersett, was named the 2025 Best Personal Injury Attorney in Dallas by the Dallas Observer's Best of Dallas® Readers' Choice Awards. He leads the firm's Personal Injury Division, where he is committed to securing justice and compensation for people whose lives have been shattered by the negligent or wrongful acts of others.
A former chief prosecutor and seasoned trial attorney, Stimpson and his team have delivered significant results in catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases — helping victims not just recover financially, but find resolution and a path forward.
"Every client we represent has had their life turned upside down, often through no fault of their own," Stimpson said. "It's my job to make sure they're voices are heard and that the person or company responsible is held fully accountable. Sometimes, that means pushing for broader change — not just for victim compensation, but to improve safety standards, reform corporate practices, or even change laws."

Michael A. Livens, an associate attorney at Varghese Summersett, was named the 2025 Best Trust & Estate Attorney in Dallas by the Dallas Observer's Best of Dallas® Readers' Choice Awards.

With a dual background in finance and law, Michael brings precision, clarity, and strategic insight to every estate matter he handles. Whether advising on asset protection, administering estates, or crafting tailored legacy plans, Michael helps clients navigate sensitive legal transitions with confidence.
"I approach every case with the mindset of preserving what matters most — whether that's a family legacy, a business, or generational wealth," Michael said. "It's incredibly rewarding to help clients gain clarity and confidence during what is often a difficult chapter in their lives."
