Our track record of success is equally unmatched. Through referrals and joint-venturing opportunities Stephens, Anderson & Cummings has had the pleasure of achieving justice for "our" clients, and along the way we have helped our referring and joint-venturing lawyers earn over $25 Million in attorney fees over just the past 5 years. Our lawyers have received national and statewide recognition for achieving the 5th largest jury verdict in Texas in 2004, the 47th largest jury verdict in the U.S. in 2004, the 99th largest jury verdict in the U.S. in 2005, and the largest jury verdict ever in McLennan County, Texas involving a trucking wreck wrongful death case.
