The first time Charla Aldous ever stood up in front of a jury, she knew that it was where she belonged. Aldous has been told that, in front of a jury, she seems to have the opposite of stage fright, and that is true. It’s where she feels most comfortable: advocating for her clients, arguing their cases. As a trial lawyer, the courtroom is her second home.
Aldous is a trial lawyer. If she believes in a cause, she’ll fight for it—with everything she’s got—for as long as she needs to. She doesn’t know any other way to approach her work.
Aldous trys cases because she enjoys helping people, whether they’re ordinary people who’ve been wronged by a product, company, or a business that’s been harmed by the actions of another. She truly does care about the people she represents. If Aldous ever stop caring, she’ll quit practicing law—that's how strongly she feels about what they do at Aldous Law.
Aldous has tried cases involving birth injuries, medical malpractice, sexual assault, and other forms of personal injury.

Over her career, Aldous has been fortunate enough to try over 200 jury trials for plaintiffs and defendants. She actually began on the other side, defending businesses and insurance companies. At some point, she decided she wanted to choose the people and companies she represents, to know them personally and believe in their cause. Aldous works on every one of her firm's cases because her clients personally matter to her.
