VETERANS
Our CEO, a U.S. Navy Veteran, knows first-hand the sacrifice that our nation's Veterans make to serve America. We strongly believe that Veterans are most deserving of our time and effort.
That is why The Hood Legal Group's mission is this - to serve entrepreneurial, business-focused Veterans with their IP and trial needs. And to take action when government goes too far.
Tier One Law™
As any Veteran knows, the premier operational units of the United States Armed Forces are Tier One Units. Examples include DEVGRU (Seal Team 6) and Delta Force. These units are highly trained, superbly capable, and undertake the most challenging, strategically critical missions. Most importantly, they never quit, and exist to prevail.
At Hood Legal Group, we represent entrepreneurial and business focused Veterans who need to assert or defend their valuable intellectual property assets -the 21st Century assets that spring from the creative and capitalistic minds of those who fought for our country. And we seek to do so - in the courtroom - with the same level of zeal and fortitude that our military Tier One Units do on the battlefield. We call that Tier One Law ™.
If you're a Veteran starting or leading a business venture, and you have developed valuable intellectual property - whether inventions deserving of or protected as patents, logos/names/symbols that you use to identify your brand as trademarks, original works of art/music/photography, or have valuable trade secrets in need of assertion or defense - call in Tier One Law™.
VA/Disability
Our Nation's military veterans understood that they were taking on dangerous work, volunteering for service. But they counted on American to come through with support if they were injured or disabled.
So many, though, when faced with the major impacts of a service-related injury and disability on their lives and the lives of their family, find nothing but a bureaucratic maze of red-tape when they attempt to obtain support from the Department of Veterans Affairs. And to make matters worse, they often fall victim to unscrupulous lawyers and firms who offer to help them, and proceed to take a large chunk of money due and owing the Veteran.
The Hood Legal Group is not that kind of firm. We selectively donate our time and legal assistance to those Veterans who find themselves hitting roadblocks with the VA. We coordinate with VFW claims officers in processing disability claims. And if a VA appeal comes into the picture, we assist with the legal representation necessary to maximize chances of success. And we do it pro bono - we neither seek nor accept payment for this work.
