Eight with Beaumont Law Firm Provost Umphrey Earn 2015 Texas Super Lawyers Recognition

BEAUMONT, Texas, Sept. 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Eight attorneys at legendary Texas personal injury law firm Provost Umphrey Law Firm, L.L.P. have been named to the 2015 list of Texas Super Lawyers, published by Thomson Reuters legal division.

Selection to this widely respected listing is based on a patented process that includes peer nominations, research and a blue-ribbon review. No more than 5 percent of lawyers in the state are chosen each year.

The Provost Umphrey lawyers included on this year's Texas Super Lawyers list are:

• Walter Umphrey – firm founder, listed for 12 of the last 13 years;
• Bryan O. Blevins, Jr. – selected every year since 2003;
• Darren L. Brown – first selected in 2014;
• Joseph J. Fisher II – selected every year since 2008;
• J. Keith Hyde – selected every year since 2009;
• Matthew C. Matheny – selected this year by both Super Lawyers and Texas Rising Stars, a companion listing for lawyers age 40 and younger, where he was listed for four previous years.
• D'Juana Parks – listed every year since 2009;
• James Payne – listed each year since 2003;

All were chosen for their work in personal injury law except Mr. Hyde, who is recognized for environmental litigation.

"It's gratifying to see our lawyers receive this kind of important recognition year after year," says Mr. Fisher, a senior equity partner at the firm. "That really demonstrates the kind of top-quality legal representation we provide for our clients every single day."

In addition to the Texas Super Lawyers honorees, the firm is home to several attorneys named to the 2015 list of Texas Rising Stars, including Jennifer Job, Colin David Moore and Ronnie Turner. Last month, 13 Provost Umphrey lawyers – more than half the firm – were listed in the 2016 edition of The Best Lawyers in America.
