Dodge & Associates Attorneys At Law

I hired Jim Dodge 4/18/19 after an injury on the job. He knew everything about saif and how they work because he has the advantage of being a former attorney for SAIF workers comp and he knows everyone that works there. I had a herniated disc with pinched nerve causing pain down my leg on the left side. Jim got me covered for all medical and i had 1 discectomy and went back to work. It herniated again bigger than before the first surgery and caused more problems. I had to have a second surgery after having to prove to workers comp that the same injury larger than before was still from the first injury at work. I healed and all leg pains went away but back pain did not. I was offered a good amount for everything and Jim Dodge said no!!!! He worked everyday and got the amount they offered doubled in the end. HE IS THE BEST when it comes to fighting SAIF! Why would you want an attorney that doesnt know SAIF when you can have an attorney like Jim Dodge that knows more about SAIF than any of there new attorneys? The SAIF attorneys told me they were not planning on settling my case at all until Jim went to work guys!!!!???? If you want to win and get whats owed to you then Jim Dodge is your man!nnThese guys talking about they dont answer the phone are right! They cant staff the office because of COVID but they do return calls in a timely manner. The times are hard on everyone and its hard to be patient when you need help but with Jim Dodge patience pays off. Leave a message and wait for the call back. It would not be professional for him to be in the middle of court and pause it all to answer your call. He is 100% professional with each and every client. Leave message and WAIT your turn he will get back to you!!!!!!!!!!!

In 2015 I had Jim Dodge as my representative on a workman's comp case he was excellent. He went above and beyond and got me what I deserved in a case. However his associates are another story, the one who handled my SSD, he did not listen, did not tell the judge the correct information, therefore I lost my case he did not appeal said it wasn't something they did. At the same time I had an associate working an auto accident with injuries, Comunication was sorry at best. Most of the time i had to call him. It took right up to 3weeks till deadline to close. Then there was a mix up on their end on the account my checks were written from. Asked to get the replacement check certified mail. They sent it regular mail, to the wrong address,wrong city. I'm sorry Jim, I will not be coming back or send anyone your way.

Im having bad experience with this office, I don't recommend to anyone if you dont want to lose time because they take forever to answer and explain about your case, tank you.

I had a workers comp claim, I felt I got shorted in this claim. I barely ever talked to Mr Dodge and really a couple worthless connections. It was 2 years getting my life back together from a fractured hip. Didn’t seem he had really did much work or even felt my pain. I was told one amount and ended up settling for a much lower price. When I met him he seemed strong but as we went along I felt sold out. He got way more in the settlement than was discussed. I usually don’t comment s on these matters but I feel who ever uses him please ask questions and keep records. Make sure you do your own work. Mr Dodge is friendly I will agree but doesn’t really engage much as time goes on. Didn’t feel he really even knew my case. Anyways just dissatisfied and needed to vent. I took him because he said he was the best and knew saif. Should have gone with other attorney. Lesson learned.

This office Never answer the phone
