Roger J. Dodd is a trial lawyer, author, and teacher. His office is located in Valdosta, Georgia, but at least half of his time is spent trying cases and teaching elsewhere. He now emphasizes plaintiff's serious or catastrophic personal injury, wrongful death and medical malpractice representation. He spends much of his time working with other firms on these cases.

He is among the nation's most elite lawyers included in The Best Lawyers in America. He is co-author of the best selling book published by Lexis▪Nexis Publishing Company entitled: Cross-Examination: Science and Techniques. The book went into its fourth printing in less than twelve (12) months. It has been a best seller every year since its publication in 1993.

He is Board Certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy in both Civil and Criminal Trial Practice. He is listed in Best Lawyers in America and Martindale Hubbell's Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers. He has lectured in over forty-nine (49) states and three foreign countries. He has published articles in Trial Magazine such as: "Parlor Tricks of the Courtroom" (April, 1990); "Controlling The Runaway Witness" (January, 1991); "Bait" (April, 1992) and soon "A Tragic Accident - Not Murder" - Synopsis of Opening Statements (March, 1998). He is a Fellow of the Georgia Bar Foundation, Past Chairman of the Board of the Georgia Institute of Trial Advocacy, Past President of the Georgia Association Criminal Defense Lawyers, and a former board member of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He is presently a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers. He has served as a member of the State Bar of Georgia Disciplinary Board.
