We are a trial law firm. We appear in courtrooms nationwide. We specialize in intellectual property cases - patent, trademark, and copyright infringement. We also accept selective cases where government is abusing its power, and when important Constitutional rights are impacted. And we're excited to announce the launch of a new practice emphasis focused on Veterans and VA disability claims advocacy.

About The Firm


The Hood Legal Group is an innovative, modern law firm. We connect with clients via modern technology, and do not maintain physical offices. This allows us to keep our fees controlled, which in turn allows us to charge a flat fee (as opposed to billing by the tenth of an hour like most firms) for every engagement. You know the price of our services from the start.


We do not maintain a large staff of attorneys, paralegals, assistants, or clerks. Instead, we customize a case team for each engagement, in partnership with elite legal staffing firms. Your case gets specialized attention from personnel with experience and backgrounds directly relevant to your dispute.


And we are intensely mission-focused. Our CEO, Gary Hood, developed a unique litigation strategy over 30 years of trying cases. We evaluate a case thoroughly at the start, identify strengths and weakness, and then relentlessly pursue the client's objective from day 1. We call this Litigation Done Right™.

Public Interest Advocacy

Fundamental American rights, taken for granted for decades, are under attack. Whether your 1st Amendment rights to speech, association, or religion. Or your 2nd Amendment right to keep and bear arms. Or your various other personal and property rights. Overzealous government officials or employers, activist neighbors, or many others hold nothing back when they decide to take from you. The Hood Legal Group selectively accepts these kinds of cases when they involve a significant public interest.


VA Disability Claims

As a VA Accredited Attorney - and a Veteran himself - Gary Hood represents Veterans seeking VA disability compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Whether providing assistance preparing and submitting an initial claim, or appealing within the VA system or to courts that oversee Veterans claims, Gary brings 30 years of litigation experience to bear to help Veterans obtain the VA benefits they've earned. We particularly assist Veterans with cancer and related claims, that can present more complex legal challenges.
