He is awesome atterney

My family only hire him to do our real estate law services. He is very attentive with everything and also great communication not like other atterney’s office. His team is amazing. We’ve been using his services 4 times. Every time worked out perfectly without stress. You won’t be disappointed!!!

Professional

My wife and I recently retired and new that we needed to update our wills, power of attorney, including all documents relating to health care. Jim was efficient, professional and timely. We are presently consulting with him on a right of way issue. We highly recommend him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
