This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Ms. Gloria Ramirez

I had the privilege of working with attorney Hodson and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the moment we started, it was clear that he was not only a highly skilled attorney but also a compassionate advocate. Throughout my case, Don demonstrated exceptional legal expertise, navigating com...plex issues with ease. He always took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring I felt informed and confident in our strategy. What truly set him apart was the unwavering support and empathy he provided. During a challenging time, Don was more than just a legal representative; he was a steady presence, offering encouragement and understanding when I needed it most. Thanks to his dedication and hard work, we achieved a favorable outcome. I am truly grateful for Attorney Donald Hodson professionalism and heartfelt support, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking legal assistance.

Excellent

Don's among the best. I'm very happy with the result in my case. Don's my son's age but practices like he's done this for years. Smart, hard working, and fearless. I think he's now working with the legendary Roy Black here in Miami representing those celebrity types -- not surprised. This kid's got a... lot on the ball. Highly recommend him for civil matters.

Extremely professional!

Wow, what an amazing lawyer Donald has been for me. Extremely professional, very communicative, is always on top of his cases and works his hardest to take care of his clients. I have had an amazing experience working with Donald. One that I will not regret. 100% would recommend time and time again.

Fights and gets results for you.

I contacted Mr. Hobson who was practicing at a Lawfirm in Coconut Grove then. He did not waste time in getting my case moving and finalized satisfactorily on my behalf. Donald is an A+ litigator, direct, pleasing to the eye, and persuasive with opponents. It was no challenge for him to move the... elephant crowding me in the living-room. Attorney Hodson achieved numbers in my favor with empathic efficiency, knowledge, and I am forever thankful. I recommend Attorney Dobson 100%.
