Excellent Work
Aaron was very helpful. He is knowledgeable, experienced and compassionate. I am thankful for the work he did for our family and would absolutely seek his assistance in the future if the need arises.

The Right Lawyer
I'm a lawyer. I asked a team of lawyers, including Aaron Woods, to help me represent clients who were brain injured. I associated him because of his experience with serious injuries and familiarity with products liability cases. It was the best association I've had in a brain injury case. I highly recommend him to lawyers and plaintiffs. He is both a good lawyer and a good guy. It was a pleasure working with him as co counsel.
