Are Saying About Us

"The Five Mistakes That Can Wreck Your Florida Accident Case is a must read for anyone that has been injured in a accident in Florida!"

My case was handled courteously and professionally. All of my questions were answered promptly and I never felt anything I was concerned about was un-important. Judi always had answers and took the time to explain. She was always on top of my case when I called the office.

I really appreciated the fact that Mr. Dodson hired a professional expert to measure and make an evaluation about the place where I fell. The whole process was handled very well. Both Judi and Mr. Dodson were very nice and my experience working with them was professional.

I would recommend Jim Dodson to anyone I knew who was in need of a personal injury attorney. 


"I recommend the Law Office of James Dodson.  They were always able and available when I had questions.  They even got me more than I expected right when I needed it most.  I am exceedingly grateful to have had this wonderful group of people helping and getting what we deserve."

Man Hit and Killed While Lying Prone on State Road 60 in Polk County

For the second time in less than two weeks, a pedestrian was killed on a Tampa Bay area roadway after lying down in the roadway and being struck by a vehicle. According to the local media, Quinn Gilchrist was killed when a van ran him over after he laid down in the middle of State Road 60 in Polk County.

The accident is still being investigated by the Florida Highway Patrol. According to troopers, Mr. Gilchrist’s own vehicle became disabled on State 60. It appears Mr. Gilchrist left his vehicle and began walking. He did not go very far before he laid down in the road, and was eventually struck by a van.

Last week I reported on a similar incident that occurred on U.S. Highway 19 in Hernando County.

Our condolences at the Law Office of James W. Dodson, P.A. go out to the families and friends of both the deceased and the person driving the vehicle that struck him.
