James Heath Dillon's Lawyer Endorsements
"Honestly, I owe a lot to Heath, as he worked with me when I arrived at Ft. Polk as a brand-new lawyer to the Army. He is extremely proficient, thorough, and excellent at spotting the issues that are most important in a case. Not only is he trustworthy and reliable to his clients, but he is also well respected by peers, opposing counsel, and judges. Heath assisted me with well over a dozen cases, mentoring me to good results in all of them. Since then, every success I've experienced as a lawyer is attributable to the great start he gave me in the real world practice of law."
"Mr. Dillon is an outstanding attorney and person - he cares personally for his clients and ensures they are protected at every step of the process. Whether it be in state court, a military court, or elsewhere, Mr. Dillon is one of the best."
"Heath and I served together at Fort Sill, Oklahoma as Army Judge Advocates. He was always professional, prepared and knowledgeable when consulted about military law matters. I would value his opinion on any complex military law issue."
