Reviews
Mr. Dixon is a great colleague to have in the legal profession. I had been doting around the case law to best determine how to make a complex challenge to a local agency in Federal Court, and discovered Mr. Dixon had a history of successfully challenging unconstitutional restrictions on attorney visits to clients in pretrial custody. I called Mr. Dixon and was able to speak with him the same day, and his staff was very calm and professional. Mr. Dixon helped bend my learning curve so that I was able to raise a constitutional challenge for my clients through the federal system much faster and timelier than I would have otherwise and saved me hours of research. I look forward to crediting him with my clients’ rights being returned without unconstitutional limits imposed by a local government agency.
