Dixon was named in the amicus brief with the American Civil Liberties Union to the Florida Supreme Court urging reversal for Gideon vs. Wainwright, the case that supported the sixth amendment of the constitution to provide counsel in criminal cases for defendants unable to afford their own attorneys.
He was the founding executive director of Legal Service of Greater Miami, a program that grew out of President Lyndon Johnson's 1964 War on Poverty.

After his retirement as a General Master for the Florida Court System in 1987, he served as a full-time volunteer for the Legal Aid Society of Greater Miami, earning him the John Minor Wisdom Public Service and Professionalism Award for Pro Bono Service by the American Bar Association in 1995.
In 1990, Dixon was awarded the Florida Supreme Court's highest honor, the Tobias Simon Pro Bono Award.
