Devoted, dedicated, and tough. This man is a professional from one end of the courtroom to the other. I endorse him and expect nothing but the best from him, because I know that is what he delivers.

I have watched Jim win a "NOT GUILTY" verdict for his client, who was accused of illegally possessing a firearm. Jim's strategy in that case was brilliant and it paid off. I have also watched Jim negotiate a resolution in an arson case that kept his client out of jail. If you want a lawyer who can do it all- negotiations or a trial- James Smith is the one to call.

He does everything within his power to get the best results possible for his clients, and does so in a professional, respectable manner. We have worked together in the past to combine our resources for the better of our clients, and I look forward to working with him again in the future. I would gladly recommend Attorney James Smith for criminal defense in Rhode Island.

I proudly endorse Jim Smith. I met and worked with him extensively on jury trial training in Macon, GA for 2 straight weeks. His legal acumen and insight is second to none. His communication skills are outstanding and his "warrior ethos" in the courtroom is a constant reminder of him being a fellow Marine. Outstanding lawyer. I would highly recommend him if I had a friend in need of top-notch legal defense in Rhode Island.
