Dorsey took on a very complex and demanding case against several very well funded defendants. His skills both inside and outside the courtroom led us to a victory in the Mississippi Supreme Court that changed the landscape of construction and insurance law in the state. The case took over ten years to reach a conclusion and Dorsey was right by my side, confident, capable and supportive the entire time. He is a credit to his profession and I offer my highest recommendation without question.
