“Jim Dobson and Dave Klein, and their team, are A players and better people. They work hard, they are responsive, they put their soul into your case, and their work product is outstanding. It is that simple, and that is the key — Jim and Dave will help you clear the weeds and tell your client’s story with clarity, simplicity, emotion and logic.
