Unprofessional

Unprofessional. Hired Dysart Law Firm to represent us and were abandoned by this law firm. Chris Dysart was incompetent and may have been experiencing personal problems that were affecting his ability to act as a professional. His consulting was incoherent and we couldn't make heads or tails on what ...he was actually trying to tell us. It was extremley difficult to contact him because he often never returned emails or phone calls. When he did, we were lied to on multiple occasions; he said he was processing paperwork about our case and he never did. We even did a lot of the legwork for this firm because we were tired of waiting for them to be proactive. Look elsewhere for proper representation.

Excellent, Knowledgeable and Professional Attorney

During my entire case, Chris Dysart was prepared, professional, and explained everything to me. Going through my illness was a very difficult time for me and the Dysart Law Firm helped me every step of the way. The staff was very nice and helped answer my questions whenever I called. Chris Dysart was... able to get the company to settle my case without having to go through a lengthy trial. I am so grateful to Chris Dysart and The Dysart Law Firm!

Integrity Matters

Someone I am close to recommended this law firm and everything she shared has brought me to believe that this law firm bases everything on their integrity. They care about their clients and the results their clients receive. I feel very comfortable recommending this law firm to others with personal... injury or other legal matters.

I’d have no reservations in referring The Dysart Law Firm to people, they are good people to work with, period.

I liked working with The Dysart Law firm, they are nice people. Positive result with my lawsuit, happy with outcome. I think they definitely took the time to talk with me, always there to answer any questions I had. Really helpful, always took my calls. Always felt important, despite the fact tha...t my case was small compared to their other cases, they never let me feel that way. I’d have no reservations in referring The Dysart Law Firm to people, they are good people to work with, period.

I recommend Christopher Dysart.

Chris handled a legal matter for me over the summer. It was handled quickly and with positive results.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
