Outstanding Attorney and Advocate
Having never been involved in a personal injury claim, quite honestly I was a bit reluctant to consult an attorney. To my chagrin, I had listened to stereotypes about aggressive attorneys, and had no interest in working with someone like that. Sure, i wanted to be successful in my claim, but not at the expense of dealing with a pushy lawyer.
I asked around and was told that if I wanted someone who was different from the crowd, who was articulate and committed, could listen and advocate well, then Jeff Dickson was the professional to consult.
My experience proved to be exactly that, and more. Jeff is not only a tireless advocate, but he consistently exceeded my expectations for compassion and willingness to work hard to have my injury addressed fairly by the opposing party's insurance company. He is diligent, whip- smart, articulate, and defies any "attorney" stereotype. Beyond that, he is simply a good, solid human being and dedicated professional. He went above and beyond to consult with others in his field to make sure he was providing the very best service for me, and I am deeply grateful.
If you are looking for someone who can get the job done while being the kind of person you can trust and actually even like, consult Jeff Dickson.

Jeffrey T. Dickson
My husband hired Jeff to help with a workman's compensation case. Jeffrey provided us with the tools to know what my husband's rights and options were in regards to his case. He was always quick to respond to our questions and concerns and accommodated our requests for meetings as needed. We truly appreciate his expertise!

Personable Yet Professional
I had serious injuries from an accident at work and the insurance company was minimizing them and giving me the run around. Though I was suffering from PTSD and migraines, the insurance company took measures to extend and delay treatments. The same went with my physical injuries until I hired Jeff. He was able to get me the treatments I needed and get all the bills payed. 99% of the time he was very easy to contact and always kept in good communication with me. He's honest and upfront and won't fill you with empty promises. When it came time to settle my case, he was able to get more than double what was originally calculated by the Dept. of Labor. Then he did the unexpected and discounted the rate he was going to charge me. I highly recommend him to anybody with an injury case. IMHO he is the best at what he does.

Jeff Dickson's an excellant lawyer and efficient...
I got no where with another lawyer,who after a year-said he could do no more.I was then introduced to Jeff Dickson who was very efficient and helped me through the process,and kept in touch weekly (sometimes daily) with his progress with my case. He tried his best to help me understand,and was patient with explaining things,as I have a brain injury and get overwhelmed at times. I would recommend him to anyone who needed a lawyer...

Relevant experience, easy to work with
Jeff's guidance was invaluable during my claim process. Never in a million years did I expect to hire a personal injury lawyer. However, I'm glad I did! Six months after my car accident, with symptoms continuing, a friend pointed me in Jeff's direction. Jeff's insight into the insurance industry demystified the claims process. His easy demeanor helped me to get information I needed and made asking questions comfortable. After thoroughly understanding my accident and lingering head and neck pain, Jeff gave me just the advice I needed. I will always appreciate his message to me, "your job is to get better." It was such a relief to hear this after persistent calls from the insurance company. Focusing on me was so much easier when I no longer had to field calls and receive mail from the adjuster. I'm so glad that I hired Jeff; I truly appreciate his partnership throughout the process!

Professional
I contacted Mr. Dickson after receiving a settlement offer from my worker's comp provider. I felt it did not adequately reflect my injury. Mr. Dickson reviewed my medical records and took my case. He immediately contacted the insurance provider and within a month had an offer more than 3x the original offer. He was expedient, professional, curtious. He took the time to explain the process in detail as well as kept me updated to all new developments. I am very happy I found this lawyer and recommend him to anyone needing help with their workers comp cases.

In Good Hands
I was injured on the job in 2013. The insurance company handled the physical therapy apointments, Dr. visits, perscriptions etc. Once I had been cleared medically, the insurance company, would not close my case, or return my calls. With no prior experience in this situation and no one to turn to for advice, I reached out to Jeff. He was able to navigate the insurance company's bureaucracy, invoke response(s) and ultimatley was able to get me a payout for my injury. Without Jeff's experience and professional guidance, I fear my claim would still be in limbo. Absolutly would and will recommend Jeffrey to anyone in a similar situation.

Workers Compensation
I would definitely recommend Jeffrey Dickson's legal services which I was fortunate enough to find during a difficult injury and subsequent longish period of less than good health. Many questions came up and Mr Dickson was always available to clarify issues and give advice that was crucial for me to understand what were the options and limitations in my case.
His services were affordable and reasonably unbiased.
Having one's work capacity reduced is unpleasant, but the assistance of Jeffrey T. Dickson was invaluable in mitigating the stress of my claim.
Finding the right lawyer is important particularly in a case of injury.

Defiantly Recommend
I came to Jeff after I had been in a really bad car accident that left me basically immobile for many months. He looked at my case and walked me through it and explained everything. He reviewed everything with me and was very informative and quick to respond to my inquires or questions. He negotiated for the settlement and I was more than satisfied with the outcome.
I recommend him 100%

Knowledgeable and Effective
Jeff took care of my workers comp case totally with my best interest at heart. I had a traumatic brain injury so the stress of dealing with the insurance company and all of the other paperwork involved in a workers comp case was very stressful for me. Once I hired Jeff, he took all of that on and did a more efficient and effective job than I could. Jeff understands the business from both sides and did a great job explaining everything to me which enabled me to make informed decisions and understand the consequences of decisions made. He always had time to talk with me in person and responded promptly to my phone calls and emails. He is a good lawyer and a caring person.
