James Hal Medows’s Reviews

I've worked with lawyers in the past and must admit that " I despise lawyers". However, working with James Medows changed my perspective due to the fact that he kept me informed,got me a favorable outcome and kept his word. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Mr Medows to potential clients. The guy is good at what he does.

James was quick in getting the case resolved and thorough in answering my many questions. He was very accessible by phone and by text and always took the time to get back to me. He was friendly yet to the point when we spoke. I also found him to be extremely trustworthy, as he told me what my options were even if some of them wouldn't have benefitted him. His pricing was very fair and he went out of his way to be an excellent attorney.

James Medows was very thorough and helpful throughout the entirety of my case. He was almost always available instantly via text message when I had any questions, and he stayed in contact as the case progressed. In the end, he was able to have the case dismissed. I would definitely recommend him as a reliable criminal defense attorney.

Although my case was small compare to other people's serious cases, he helped me with all the process step by step. He is very Trustworthy. Before hiring a lawyer and since this was my first criminal court case involved, i was very cautious about which lawyer to choose. I felt like he was talking with confidence and passion all the time.

Mr. James Medows is a superb attorney and is very professional. His knowledge and experience kept me confident. The moment I first met and spoke to him personally, I felt an immediate relief. He is honest, cordial, punctual and very knowledgable. Being as busy as he already was, he was within direct contact with me whenever needed and is very responsive. That was essential to me. He did nothing less then meet his goal for me, and that was to get my case resolved with minimum or no penalty in one court appearance. There is no doubt, I highly recommend Mr. James Medows for your legal matter.

James is an amazing lawyer and was highly professional, from my initial phone contact with him to the moment he saved me from a conviction and had my arrest sealed (pending my 1 year good behavior, or course) the absolute best outcome I could have asked for! James is is highly efficient and is respectful of everyone's time - The Judge's, The District Attorney's, and his Client's. He does talk fast, but that is a good thing, you will get all of the important information as quickly as possible. He was also very good at answering any questions I had, even the stupid ones... From the moment he returned my call about 10 days before my court date he was in constant contact with me via text and email, and even text me the night before my court appearance to find out if I had any final questions he could answer. Very comforting! The day of my DAT he walked out of the court room and said, "I negotiated the deal we were after (ACD), just walk into the court room and sit down", I walked into the room and there was about 50 people sitting and waiting to be called up, I barely even sat down and my name was called, James was waiting at the bench in front of the judge and motioned for me to join him, the DA told the judge what deal we had negotiated, James confirmed the deal and the judge spoke with me for 30 seconds to make sure I understood the terms of the deal, I said Yes, and we were done! James told me to wait in the hallway and he came out about 2 mins later to say good luck and goodbye! It really could not have been easier, or turned out better. Thanks again James!

James always presented himself in an impeccable manner and was very well dressed on both occasions we met in person, he had a very good relationship with the DA, he quickly allayed any fears that I had about dealing with the Justice system and made the entire process as pleasant as possible. His fee was very reasonable, and absolutely the best money I've ever spent. His competitors quoted me anywhere from 2 - 8 times the amount James quoted me!! Seriously! I was on this site a few weeks ago feeling lost, confused and scared, trying to do as much research as possible to make sure I made the right decision. Take my advice, stop looking for someone to defend you, and call him, then relax! He will save you time, money, stress and your dignity.

Sincerely,

SW

I was searching the internet for a DWI/DUI lawyer to assist my father with his DWI case. I went on Mr. Medows website and read all his reviews. When I called him , he provided me with knowledgeable advice regarding my father DWI case. I retain him right away. Mr. Medows kept me and my father inform throughout this case . My father case was resolve without no jail time. I highly recommend Mr. Medows.

James took care of everything (I, well, showed up). He said things would happen a certain way, and they did. He frequently sent updates about my case via text message. He responded quickly to my questions and concerns. I had never been arrested before this class-A misdemeanor, and my record remains clean. If I again find myself on the wrong side of the legal system, heaven forbid, I would consult James.

My girl friend helped me to find Mr. Medows by reading the reviews online. The first time I met him I was a little bit worried because he talks really fast and I am not a native English speaker. But as we talked more, I found that Mr. Medows is always very clear and patient to explain everything. He handed my case very well and saved me a large amount of reconcile fee because of his good relationship with Judges and DAs. Also, he responded your call and text fast, every time you need him, he is there. Overall, I highly recommend Mr. Medows, he is professional and really protects his clients.

Mr. Medows is very professional and honest. He has a great approach in his defense and will play all chips to ensure the best possible verdict. Meeting Mr. Medows came at perfect timing because the attorney I originally hired was taking advantage of my ignorance regarding pending litigation against me. Mr. Medows was straight forward,reassuring, confident and reliable. He for sure is not the type that states “I won cases way back when…” He is fresh, sharp and has a unique approach to handling his cases.
I highly recommend him!

James was very thorough and regarding technical ability, was able to have my case dismissed. He was easy to communicate with and went out of his way on numerous occasions. Pricing was very fair.

I had several charges against me and James was able to work with the ADA BEFORE our hearing and arrange a wonderful deal. He was incredibly pro-active, totally responsive and I love the fact that we communicated most often via TEXT...even while he was in court!...how cool was that. His communication skills are superb and just the fact that he was always able to respond to me, no matter where he was is enough for most people to be impressed at this level of care.
I would recommend James to anyone who wants a really attentive, smart and sharp attorney for their criminal needs. Also, He dresses better than any other attorney i have ever known! Ha!

James was the best. As soon as he was hired he worked nonstop on my case. Did an absolutely fantastic job in handling my case in a timely fashion. It was very speedy and quickly resolved with the BEST outcome any one could ever ask for. Look no further than James medows for any and all of your legal matters.

James Medows is one of the best criminal lawyers in New York. He really cares about his clients and returns your calls promptly. He explains everything to you and is always on time to court. His fees are very reasonable and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great criminal lawyer.

The time I spent with James was limited, but he helped me greatly. I can't tell you how confident I felt, and how rejuvenated I felt having James on my side when I went to court. He stood up for me, and is extremely organized, kind, calm and informed. He is very professional, dresses well and kept me aware of my options through out the entire process, which went quickly. I 100% recommend James Medows.

He help me with a preliminary hearing and bought me time to contact my lawyer. His confidence and optimism was refreshing.

A buddy of mine recommended James when I was in a bind. I met the guy and first things first, James was all class. He is a sharp shooter but in the courtroom, he was smoother than silk. I was charged with a very serious felony (gun possession) and James was able to get the case dismissed. Even Plaxico's attorney couldn't do that. I want to thank James and tell everyone to use the guy. He really is a lifesaver.

A friend reccomended James. I have never been in trouble with the law before. James was very patient and thourough about what kind of options I had. James is considerate, thoughtful and professional. He really knows his way around the criminal justice system.

From the very beginig and through out my case Mr.meadows kept me informed of the process and his statagy, he was responive to mine questions and even followed up on matters i mentioned that were not associated with the case at hand . I would gladly recomend him to anyone who needs a great lawyer

Prior to speaking with Mr Medows, I was a bit nervous about how my case would turn out. He assured me that it would be ok. I was pleasantly surprised when it actually did turn out to be ok. He was very respectful and confident, and put my mind at ease. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Spoke with mr. medows and I would highly recommend him to family & friends. He is very professional & strives the best for his clients. In my eyes, he is exceptionally well qualified. Consulation was informational & very pleasing. Not many lawyers out there you can trust. I rate him 5 stars!

While celebrating a promotion, I had one too many tequila shots. I stumbled out of the bar and the next thing I knew, I was being handcuffed by several all-too-eager policemen. They were clearly trying to antagonize me, but the one thing I did right that night was keep my mouth shut. Mr Medows is a friend of my brother who came highly recommended. He was very professional and candid about my situation.

Best lawyer that helped me when i was wrongfully accused, and he quickly help my case to dismiss and free of charge.

Had a problem with my son. James handled it. No problems. Got him out of jail. Case was dismissed.

Even though I did not live in the state he was practiceing, he took my call and gave me some very helpful advice. He was very friendly and expressed empathy to my case.

Mr. Medows provided great service. he was extremely knowledgeable and also tried to be cost effective. he proves that the best choice for a lawyer is the hungry lawyer who is proving himself, yet who is experienced enough to know his business.
