He approaches each case with great respect for all the emotions that the client has regarding their experience. His devotion to helping others as a New York asbestos exposure attorney comes, in large part, from seeing injustice first hand early in life.

A daily work ethic was instilled in Richard Dodd from a young age growing up on a family cotton farm and, even now, he continues to oversee a substantial farming operation with his brother. That same responsibility to work hard each day is now applied to his law practice. Dodd is selective in the cases he accepts, wishing to apply his skills advantageously and devotedly to each client. His refusal to settle for anything less than complete client satisfaction has earned him the respect of his peers, whether opponent or colleague. Cappolino Dodd Krebs LLP now receives requests from other highly respected firms to review open cases and ensure the best chance of success.

Richard's love for the environment continues to manifest itself not only in farming, but also through hobbies such as bird watching and planting acres of wildflowers and trees numbering in the thousands.
