I called James Troy after being told he was the best in town and he may be , however when it came time to get records he had me running all over town getting them. When it came that the insurance carrier wanted to settle he did not give me all the facts so I almost made a bad choose and signed off o...n the medical. Then after being harassed buy the carrier, when I said something to him about it his response was lets wait until they do it again. After I had surgery they dragged right into court because the had to paid for full disability, I still had stitches in my back and he said he had another case with a new client so he put me off to one of his associates how went in and talked to the lawyer for the carrier, he came out and told me if I agreed to let them put me back to my mark rate they would leave me alone, if not they were going to keep calling me into court a sending me to see there Dr. until I went back to the mark rate. Needless to say I have fired the firm and do not recommend Jim Troy to anyone anymore. The said thing is I had recommended he to several people.

no good

my husband was in the courthouse and this office had an attorney there and asked if we needed any help and we said yes. that was close to 6 six years ago and now we are finally looking for a new attorney. they have been unhelpful,rude, and always losing information sent to them.

We at attorney Troy's office pride ourselves in our customer service. We are very sorry we could not help you with your husband's claim. If you could call the office with your specific needs I am sure we could assist you. We do not ask people at the "courthouse" if they need assistance though, that is creating some confusion on this end. If we do represent your husband and he requires any assistance please contact our office so that we can make it right! -Office Manager

Absolutely terrible firm

When I first called the James Troy law firm, I was told they could help me out with my Worker's Comp case, and help me finally get closure on what had been a long, awful process. They assured me they handled WC cases, and asked me to sign a release form so that they could look at my information and ...get started. 4 days later I receive a letter saying they're not going to take my case. My guess? I didn't want to be awarded any money, and what lawyer's interested in that?

We are very sorry we could not assist you with your Workers' Compensation claim. Although we would like to assist each and every person who contacts us for help, we are a smaller firm and simply do not have the resources to accept 100% of cases. Also, we reviewed your file to see if we could assist and at that time we could not, so we promptly informed you, in writing, so that you could seek the advice of a different attorney. We were "reviewing your files at the Workers Compensation Board" to see if we could assist you. You were not yet a client at this firm because retainers were never signed. Once again we apologize that we could not be of more assistance. We are very sorry you had a difficult time with your claim and wish you had called us sooner to assist. -Office Manager
