Best Domestic Violence Lawyer

Mr. Abate just saved me from false accusations of domestic violence. He took the case to trial and showed that I was innocent. A conviction would have ended my career and kept me from my children. His attention and dedication to the case made me feel like he was personally invested in the case. Hi...s staff was excellent and would answer all my questions and kept me calm. I am so glad that I called Mr. Abate and so thankful for him vindicating my innocence. He was prepared and uncovered my girlfriend's criminal history.

He wants... to help his clients and he truly does help!! I would recommend James to anyone in need of a genuine, true, knowledgable attorney and i will constantly thank him for everything he has done!

Hands on, responsive and familiar with the court.

I chose Mr. Abate because he was straight forward with me and gave a frank and honest assessment of my son's case, explaining all aspects of the law and what we were up against. He held our hands through the process and reassured us that this too would pass. We dealt only with him. Sometimes we had... to wait to reach him because he was in court, but we preferred that over being passed off to an associate. In the end, his advice was excellent and his familiarity with the law, the court and its personal was helpful and a positive factor in resolving our case. We would unhesitatingly recommend him.
