I have worked Kirk Pittard and Thad Spalding on several of our high-profile cases and they are a huge asset to the case.  Their motion practice and attention to appellate issues during the litigation and trial phases has allowed us to succeed on multiple occasions.  Kirk and Thad are very responsive and I would highly recommend them as appellate counsel.

I regularly associate Kirk Pittard and the firm of Durham, Pittard & Spalding at the beginning of my major lawsuits.  This puts the defense counsel on notice that our trial team is fully staffed to engage in a heavy motion practice, and it assures the court that we can successfully defend or appeal the court’s rulings that matter.  It also gives me the comfort of knowing that Kirk and his firm are ready to spring into action, without having to be brought up to speed.  The alternative fee arrangements that Durham, Pittard & Spalding offers makes it easy to associate them from the beginning of the lawsuit through trial.

I have worked with Kirk and his firm for over 15 years, ever since he convinced the Amarillo Court of Appeals to reverse a summary judgment that had been granted against my client.  I never hesitate to contact Durham, Pittard & Spalding any time I have a legal issue I want researched, analyzed and briefed to assist me in the representation of my clients.  I will continue to use the firm and rely upon their expertise for cases at the trial level and on appeal in the future.
