Utterly Incompetent and Unprofessional

Based on my experience with DASPIT LAW FIRM, they should be both embarrassed and ashamed of their incompetence. For a firm that claims to be client-focused, their lack of basic communication, transparency, and professionalism was astonishing. No one notified me my original attorney left; I only ...learned this after chasing them for answers. Despite disregarding me for months, they had no problem taking more than half my settlement. I went through every proper channel-CAAP, the State Bar of Texas, and the Board of Disciplinary Appeals-only to have my thoroughly documented grievance dismissed as an "inquiry." Evidently, that's what passes for accountability in this system. If you expect even the minimum level of competence or respect from your legal counsel, I strongly recommend you look elsewhere.

Point of conversation

I met Mr. Daspit in a semi- social environment ( airport in Denver waiting on a flight). Our conversation was random in value. During our conversation Mr. Daspit inform me he was an attorney. During our general discussion on life. I ask Mr. Daspit if we could talk " Shop". I went on to explain a fa...mily situation involving a vehicle accident, that was pending civil action. I went into as much detail as time would allow. Mr. Daspit's response was invaluable..... I thank Mr. Daspit for his time. As I was boarding my flight I thought about Mr. Daspit's response.....he was able to explain the manner which my circumstances should go and what I should do. What I seen in Mr. Daspit was that he took pride in being a lawyer and being able to help.

  • 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.
