Thomas Farmer joined the firm in 1996 bringing
a drive for justice founded upon his insurance-defense practice
during most of his first ten years as a lawyer. Farmer graduated
from Baylor University in 1984 and received his law degree
from the Baylor University School of Law in 1986.
Keys to winning a case
Farmer believes it comes down to four things
in a courtroom: preparation, experience, tenacity, and being
able to bring the right resources to every case.
Mr. Farmer is board certified in Personal
Injury Trial law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization,
Admitted to practice by the Texas Supreme Court in 1986 and
the United States District Courts for the Northern and Eastern
Districts of Texas, U.S. Court of Appeals, Fifth District
and Eighth District, and the District of New Mexico. He is
a fellow of the Texas Bar Foundation, a member of the American
Trial Lawyers Association, Texas Trial Lawyers Association,
Dallas Bar Association and the Dallas Trial Lawyer's Association.
Innovative technology
According to Farmer, the firm endeavors
to obtain maximum case values at trial or through settlement,
while reducing the stress of litigation on their clients.
Known for their attention to detail, they use technology in
new and innovative ways in the courtroom from demonstrative
evidence and experts to state-of-the-art videography.
"Few law firms possess the resources, experience
and knowledge of our firm. Our job is to advise our clients
of the most advisable course of action in our legal system
under Frank Branson's leadership."

job at the Branson firm is finding the truth. The firm gets
the facts and then applies their knowledge and experience

cases have a long-lasting effect on their clients' quality
of life.
