Profile of Attorney Dan R. Dodds

Lawyer in Surprise, Arizona

At the Dodds Law Firm, I focus my practice on the needs of individuals who have suffered losses because of abusive, deceptive or unfair conduct by businesses or other individuals. I also provide comprehensive counsel in all matters related to Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceedings.

I take a down-to-earth approach with my clients; I will listen carefully to all your questions and concerns. Before becoming an attorney, I spent 28 years in education. I learned the value of listening, as well as the ability to clearly communicate complex ideas. I will make certain that you understand the law and the process, as well as your options moving forward, so that you can make informed decisions.
