Attorney Referral Service: Trust Our Louisiana Personal Injury and Maritime Law Firm
Dodson & Hooks, APLC is a Baton Rouge-based law firm that focuses primarily on personal injury and maritime law, but provides legal counsel in many areas of law. Our founding partner, Richard Dodson, hung his shingle almost a half-century ago. He vowed to provide each of his clients with effective, ethical and compassionate legal representation. Our attorneys continue to deliver the same high level of service to our clients today.We recognize that many of our colleagues share in our high expectations. They do – and should – hold any attorney to whom they refer their clients in the highest standards and regard. For this reason, we are proud to receive referrals from attorneys located in our Louisiana communities, as well as in other states and countries.

- A law firm does not ordinarily handle class action or multidistrict litigation (MDL) and wants support from a firm with experience litigating these large, complex cases.
- An attorney who practices another discipline desires to benefit from our experience in maritime, admiralty and personal injury areas of law.
- An out-of-state lawyer needs to partner with Louisiana counsel to handle a case in our state.
- A lawyer who is licensed in another country needs to partner with a U.S. licensed lawyer to handle cross-border or maritime claims.
