I have successfully litigated cases in state and federal court. Since graduating from SMU with my JD in 2004, I have developed an impressive track record in jury trials, non-jury trials, and arbitrations as a result of dedicated preparation and artful lawyering skills. I have tried, and won, cases in seven (7) different counties in Texas. It is common for me to make six and seven digit recoveries for clients who had been told by other attorneys that they don’t have a case. In fact, in 2011, I had four separate cases settle for hundreds of thousands of dollars each, and each of them had been dropped by other attorneys.. Most importantly, however, I am compassionate to my clients’ plights, and maintain the personal motto and pledge to clients that “We are in this thing together.”. My skill and hard work is recognized by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization as I am a Board Certified Personal Injury Litigator.

My practice is focused on catastrophic injury and wrongful death litigation across the country that arises from negligence, gross negligence, defective products, corporate greed, premises liability, malpractice, and toxic torts.. I began my legal career defending companies that were sued for causing injuries. After two years, I saw first-hand the greed and dishonesty of big corporations and insurance companies, and I switched sides to only represent people that were injured and needed a voice.. There was one case in particular that I worked on involving a young boy who died after falling off a slide on a Dairy Queen playground. After handling that case, I knew I couldn’t work for big corporations and insurance companies anymore. I was put on this earth to help people, not harm them.

Firm: Dash Injury Law Firm

For over 13 years now, Houman Dashtizad has represented the injured victims of negligent parties and helped them recover the compensation they deserve for their injuries. His maxim is that “every case deserves to be a winner” and all legally appropriate measures should be taken for success. Since law school, Houman’s philosophy has been that individuals who have already been wronged by the actions or negligence of another person deserve a friend in their hour of need. Accordingly, they should not be obligated to pay the attorney whom they have chosen to pursue their case until results have been achieved and compensation has been recovered by their attorney. In law school and upon graduation, he was happy to see that this was the standard practice in personal injury law. It was this aspect of personal injury law, combined with Houman’s affinity and natural curiosity for the medical sciences, which are an integral part of this specialty, that led him to specialize in it. Houman believes that mastery of a case requires compassion and complete devotion to his client, the law, and the facts of the particular case. It is this mastery that brings successful results to his cases.. Houman arrived in the United States with his family in 1985 at the age of 11. After spending one year in Louisville, Kentucky, he moved with his family to Northern California and attended middle school and high school in Walnut Creek, California. He received his B.A. from the University of California at Berkeley in 1996 and his Master of Public Administration from California State University at Hayward in 1997. He received a Juris Doctor from Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego in 2001.. Houman is an avid reader of books ranging in topics from law to medicine, psychology, history, economics, and politics. He aims to finish one book a week and likes listening to many of them in audiobook format while he works out at the gym. He feels that a lawyer’s education should not end in law school and that every opportunity should be taken to enhance one’s knowledge during the day. In every case, one may wish for a cabinet of advisors to offer perspectives on strategy, as they do for the president of the United States. Fortunately, the top minds of this country and of the world have written books that offer their ideas and strategies. It is these ideas that give a broader perspective to every case and ultimately offer the winning approach, argument, and presentation.

Working as a member of the Prosecuting Attorney’s office in Sebastian County, AR and then later in Pulaski County, I had great passion for the victims I represented, whose lives had been shattered by the criminal act of another person. I realized I might not be able to return their lives to normal, but I could help them find some amount of Justice in the face of great loss. It’s very easy to be passionate about your work, when you are working to make someone whole again.
