James O Cunningham's Reviews

We interviewed 3 different lawyers with similar ratings before we chose Mr. Cunningham. We are glad we did. I felt besides helping us with the needed funeral expenses for my father, he was honest, upfront, and of the highest ethics. Treating us and our situation with the dignity, responsiveness and professionalism my father deserved.

I would certainly highly recommend James Cunningham. I am a Critical Care Nurse here in Orlando and was involved in a devastating car accident about a year ago. My situation was very complicated. I was at a new job and didn't have my health insurance active yet, and due to my own negligence had an overlap in my car insurance. This would be the worst possible time for me to be in car accident and i was. I was injured pretty badly and needed a lot of medical intervention. I stayed in the hospital, followed by a rehab facility for a month. My hospital bills were beyond ridiculous. when i spoke to Mr. Cunningham, he didn't promise me that he would be able to get my hospital bills payed, he simply told me that he would exhaust every and any available and unavailable resource to help me get out of my hole. Through out our journey he was persistent and relentless in fighting for me. In the end, not only did he get the hospital waive over $170,000 worth of bills, he also got my car replaced and i also received a financial settlement. This is by far more then i ever expected. I most definitely learned my lesson about the importance of having car insurance at all times. He helped me dodge a bullet on that one, my life could've went the opposite way, instead I'm back at work as a nurse and continuing with my life and for that I'm extremely grateful to Mr. Cunningham. He deserves an award or something. I would also like to thank Barbara for her kindness, and compassion. You'll get to know her, she is amazing.

When my father was accidentally killed in August 2010 my family was devastated. The circumstances of the accident were almost as painful as the accident itself. A friend recommended that we contact Jim Cunningham for advice. For the next year, Jim represented us not only in a highly professional way but also in a very patient and compassionate way. He helped me grieve over my loss while meticulously researching and pursuing every aspect of our case. From the beginning, he prepared me and my family for the emotional stress that's involved in any kind of litigation. He responded immediately to my calls and/or emails and very patiently explained and re-explained what was happening. On those very few occasions when Jim was not immediately available, his outstanding assistant, Barbara, responded on his behalf. I very strongly recommend Jim Cunningham. He is an outstanding lawyer and a good, honest and compassionate man.

Mr Cunninghan was a consientious , competant attorney and very professional. His service was excellent and we would recommend him highly . Barbara his assistance was also excellent in her services to us both .

On Aug 14, 2009, I was injured when I was struck by another vehicle from behind while sitting at traffic light. Once I contacted Mr. Cunningham and his firm , I was treated with the utmost repsect and concern . He was very meticulous in explaining the Florida law to me. He kept me well informed every step of the way. As I was going through my surgery , Mr. Cunningham called me the next day to check on how I was getting along, and continued to do so for several weeks after surgery and rehab. As the settlement started taking place he kept me in tune with what my options were. Mr. Cunningham and his staff were always very courteous and helpful. (Special THANKS to Barbara). From beginning to end the office of James Cunningham and Staff were EXCELLENT!!!! I would highly recommend James Cunningham for your attorney.

When I came to James I was frightened and unsure what to do after my accident. It was wonderful to have someone take that burden off of me and begin the process of a settlement. He was extremely knowledgeable, courteous, professional and most of all "got the job done". If your looking for a lawyer that is fair, caring and will get you a settlement to your liking take time to see Mr. Cunningham before you go anywhere else. Believe me when I say, you won't need anyone else.

I would and have recommended Mr. Cunningham as an attorney. I am extremely happy with the service he has provided for me and my family. I will definately use Mr. Cunningham in the future if I ever need an attorney again.

After my experience with 3 different, well known, heavily advertised attorneys, who promised me everything and delivered NOTHING, I finally found Attorney James Cunningham. My experience with him was quite the opposite as he promised nothing and delivered everything. His assistant Barbara is fabulous, intelligent, and warm which really made for a pleasant experience during the whole process. Attorney Cunningham always returned phone calls, he always did what he said that he would do, and in my opinion went to extra mile. I would like to add that I am a future law student and have had previous experience in the legal profession and I was impressed by his professionalism and attention. I didn't have a big money case, I didn't have a strong case, but nonetheless I was never made to feel that way. I strongly suggest that you choose James Cunningham to represent you, as soon as you think you might need a lawyer. You will be in good hands.

I am an Engineering Manager for a company in Longwood, Florida and live in Deltona in Volusia County. I was rear-ended in April of 2005 and was injured due to the negligence of another driver who was in a big hurry. Mr. Cunningham helped me to obtain a fair settlement as a result of that accident.

I was first referred to Mr. Cunningham by a good friend of mine at work. Everything my friend said about Mr. Cunningham was true. He was honest and straightforward and made me feel at ease from the moment that I first met him. He was concerned about my well being and seemed to genuinely care about me. I told him that I was a Christian and we both shared how much God was a part of our lives.

Later I came back to Mr. Cunningham in June of 2006 after I was rear-ended again by yet another careless person in a hurry. This second accident resulted in me having neck surgery in 2007. Jim was caring and concerned throughout my recovery after the surgery. He was very patient and encouraging during the more than 18 months that it took to obtain an equitable settlement for this second accident.

Then after I thought I was safe from ever being injured in a car again I was struck as a pedestrian in December of 2008. I again went back to Jim and he was astonished that I had been involved in yet another accident. As he works toward helping me with this most recent accident he has expressed the same genuine care and concern as he did the very first time that I had met him in 2005.

I honestly didn’t have a very high opinion about lawyers until I met James Cunningham. I now consider him a respected and cherished friend and would highly recommend him to anyone that needs assistance from a lawyer.

I had a car accident in Florida while on a family vacation.After returning to New York and seeking legal advise from two different lawyers,I was told that I didn't have a case,I spoke to my father who lived in Florida and he advised me to get a Lawyer who practices in Florida .I went online and found Mr. Cunningham who was very responsive to all my needs being first concerned that we were medically ok.He then moved forward with my suit getting me a very satisfied offer.I would strongly reccommed Mr. Cunninghams firm to my family,friends and anyone else in need of legal advise andor legal representation.

I was involved in an auto accident where my car was totaled and I was injured due to the fault of the other driver that had been drinking. I was scared & had no idea what to do. I was referred to Mr. Cunningham & he immediatley put my mind at ease. He explained things to me in terms that I could understand. He gave me every possible scenario for each action he took and advised me what he thought was the best option. I ended up having back surgery and ultimatley Mr. Cunningham won me the maximum settlement amount that I was eligible for. I was able to pay all of my medical expenses & had enough money left over to purchase a home for my son and I. I can honestly say that Jim Cunnungham is an attorney that truly cares. My case was settled over a year ago and he still calls or e-mails me just to see how I am. He didn't forget about me after the case was over. He is a great man & a great attorney & I highly recommend him.

I am a teacher with the Osceola County School District and Mr. Cunningham handled my case very effectively. He was worked effectively with the insurance company to get a good settlement. He was very fast in answering all my questions and was efficient in communication, not bogging me down with many telephone calls.

In July of 2002 I was seriously injured in an automobile accident through the fault of another driver. Even though my injuries were thought to be minimal, Jim agreed to represent me in my dealings with the various insurance companies. He was very careful to explain Florida law to me, and to keep my expectations realistic.
Later on, it became clear that I was much more seriously injured than was previously thought. The new medical revelations were difficult to interpret and still more difficult to prove. Jim and his staff were always supportive, understanding and professionally competent. At no time did Jim urge me to make any representation which was vague, untrue or misleading. On the contrary, he insisted on the highest standards of honesty and fair play. On the other hand, no stone was left unturned, and come mediation, were were in a position on unimpeachable rectitude and thorough preparation. We prevailed at mediation with an award that was fair for all concerned.
Much is made of personal injury attorneys and their negative impact on insurance premiums and the general cost of doing business. No doubt some of it is deserved, but not in Jim's case. Dealing with insurance companies requires the use of legitimate force, and Jim and his staff provide this in the time of your greatest need. We live in a land governed by the rule of law, and for this we should be grateful. We have good laws, and a good personal injury attorney like Jim is able to make sure they apply in your case.

After being wrongfully bit in the face by a dog I was referred to Mr. Cunningham by a family member. Mr. Cunningham & staff treated me with utmost graciousness and sensitivity all while giving me a feeling of his dedication and urgency to resolve my conflict in a most positive manner!
In this time of great anguish I was comforted to know that Mr. Cunningham and staff were on top of all legal matters. Thanks to
his expertise and hard work these legal matters came to quick closure
with a very positive outcome!!
