My case/accident was very small, however, I feel Jim and his staff treated me no differently than if it had been a much larger case. I was treated with respect and immediately felt at ease with this firm. They were also very personable, addressing any concerns I had. Highly recommend the Jim Dodson firm!

I was referred by one of my husband coworker to Jim Dodson about 10 year ago when I was 7 months pregnant with my first child, a lady drove into the salon that I work at and got about 30 stitches. Jim & Judi worked really hard To get the best settlement I deserve. I never once felt pressured or judged. I was really happy with my results that why I when back to him when I was in a car accident about 1 1/2 years ago. Again, him and his team work hard to maximize my settlement. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!

Jim, Judi, Katie and everyone on the team at Dodson Law made my whole case a success. He was referred to me by a friend and I could not have made a better choice. I was in a major car accident and Jim made the whole experience a peace of cake... I never felt pressured or judged. He was on my side and he was sincere. Not many people you can tell are sincere but the whole team is. It was a long two years and they were always there for me.

My emails and calls were answered promptly and even when I moved out of state we were able to continue. I appreciate all the hard work that they put in every day to make me feel like I was their number one concern. Thank you!!! Highly recommended.

I never thought lightning would strike twice, but unfortunately for me it happened almost 4 years from my first life changing accident when I got hit by a truck while riding my bicycle. I was so blessed to have Jim Dodson law referred to me by a friend. Jim and all his associates run an extremely professional business with their specialty being bicycle accidents. I was immediately relieved and thrilled to hear bicycling was a life long passion for Jim, and if I have to explain to you why that is important, you probably wouldn't understand.Well due to the advice and help given freely by Jim I was able to be properly compensated for the financial losses I encountered.

And so it was a no brainer that I picked up the phone to call Jim for my latest life changing accident...I'm confident that he will help me as I go forward and my body heals. If you have any questions concerning your situation do yourself a favor contact Jim Dodson law...

Had a really bad bike wreck from a loose dog a few years ago and Jim really helped me to navigate through the Legalities of it all. Not only did Jim get me what I deserved but he also is a great friend. He's also a cyclist so he knows what it means to someone like me who is passionate about cycling and has to be off the bike for a long time. I recommend him to any of my cycling friends and other friends to for any time they may need a lawyer.
