My father found himself in a bad situation where he unknowingly hit a pedestrian. We needed a competent and trustworthy lawyer. I was referred to Dod by a friend and called his office for a consult. He was in court, but I was assured he would call me when he was out. He called me back that afternoon ...(mind you this was a Friday, that's how dedicated he is to his job), and I had a consult over the phone with him. I explained my father's situation and Dod was both empathetic and straightforward with the possible outcomes. His main goal from the beginning was to get the charges dismissed. We hired Dod that night. He gave me his cell number and was in contact with us frequently, giving us updates whenever he had additional news. Dod worked closely with the police department to have the charges be dropped from a possible felony to misdemeanor, and then worked even harder with the district attorneys office to get the case dismissed!!! Hiring Dod was one of the best decisions my family ever made. I cannot tell you the relief we felt today when we got the phone call that the case was dismissed. I cannot thank this man enough for his dedication and hard work. Needing to hire a lawyer is always stressful... you don't know if the person you hire is really going to fight for you and your well-being. Dod is the type of lawyer that will do whatever in his power to get you the best possible outcome. He is trustworthy, dedicated, hardworking, compassionate and patient (I am a control freak/over thinker and bless this man for being so patient with me!!). If your're looking for a lawyer, hire Dod!! You will not be disappointed.

Dod has Impressed me at every turn since I hired him to help me clear my record. He’s become the only lawyer I can truly recommend to anyone dealing with criminal charges. With confidence and Purpose, he got my felony reduced to a misdemeanor within 3 weeks, and now I’m one step closer to clearing my... record entirely. With Dod as my lawyer, I’m confident I have the best of the best fighting for me and I highly recommend him!

Being in trouble with the law is serious, and stressful. When I was arrested and charged with possession of narcotics with intent to distribute, I was facing another three years in prison. I had already done time on a previous charge and I wasn’t prepared to do another. I expressed this to Dod once I... hired him, and Dod stopped at nothing until he made sure that wouldn’t happen. Not only did he save me from the excruciating pain of being locked away from everyone I loved, but he got a plea that will eventually allow me to drop a sales charge to a misdemeanor. His work ethic and communication with me were the best I’ve ever experienced, bar none. I’d highly recommend just giving him a call to see not IF, but HOW he can help you.

After a horrible nightmare when my soon to be ex husband attacked me and hoarded the baby and I get booked for DV (insanity) I asked my sister for an attorney reference. She went to law school at USD with Dod and said he’s THE BEST and will take care of you. I called Dod on a Saturday night at 8pm, h...e texted me within a minute that he’d call me within the hour. He called 30 min later. He was sooo knowledgeable, passionate, and reassuring. He told me he has 15 years of experience as a criminal attorney and loves it. He immediately understood the situation and validated my feelings. I retained him right away. 4 days later he got the DA to drop the bogus charge! Every time I got worried he was communicating with me not to be. He’s so confident! And for a very valid reason. He’s that good! I can’t be more pleased with Dod.

I got into a domestic issue that had the situation completely wrong and I was beyond terrified and at my wits end. My career and freedom were all very much at risk. I called Dod, he immediately jumped right in, and assured me we’d figure it out and all would be ok. Let’s say I was beyond shocked when... my incident happened Sunday, I called Dod Monday, I had my court date the following Monday for a very serious charge turn into all charges dropped by Wednesday. Truly unbelievable, not just in saving my literal life but in how he takes you through the process. Hopefully I won’t ever need it, but if I ever did, Dod would be my first and only call.
