Aldous Law founder among handful of Dallas lawyers honored by national legal guide
Veteran trial attorney Charla Aldous, founder of the personal injury boutique firm Aldous Law and a pacesetter among Texas attorneys for more than three decades, has been selected to the 12th annual class of the Lawdragon Hall of Fame.
Lawdragon, which publishes renowned lawyer guides and legal industry content, has singled out for national recognition the top U.S. legal practitioners each year since 2015. Ms. Aldous is among fewer than two dozen Dallas-based attorneys honored by Lawdragon during that time, and one of only four women in that group.
“She’s won every honor,” noted Lawdragon in describing Ms. Aldous, “and given the gift of hope and justice to horrifically injured clients who might never have had the courage to face another day without her. Hero.”
“I am grateful to Lawdragon for its Hall of Fame recognition,” Ms. Aldous said. “Each year has brought new challenges and new opportunities to provide just, lasting outcomes for our clients. I look forward to continuing to do so in 2026 and beyond.”
Ms. Aldous has been selected to Lawdragon’s flagship 500 Leading Lawyers in America list each year since 2007 and is also a familiar name on the company’s 500 Leading Plaintiff Consumer Lawyers in America guide.
In addition, Ms. Aldous has been recognized as a “Living Legend” by the Dallas Bar Association and was selected by Law.com and The National Law Journal as an awardee for the Elite Women of the Plaintiffs Bar. She also received a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2021 from the Texas Trial Lawyers Association.
She has been honored by Benchmark Litigation, Texas Super Lawyers and The Best Lawyers in America. Ms. Aldous is a member of the International Society of Barristers, Inner Circle of Trial Advocates, International Academy of Trial Lawyers, American College of Trial Lawyers and American Board of Trial Advocates.
She has won eight-and-nine figure judgments against hospitals, trucking companies and such major concerns as American Honda, Conoco and Greyhound Lines. The complete 2026 Lawdragon Hall of Fame honorees’ list can be viewed here.
