Knowledgeable Attorney
I had an in depth consultation with Kevin over the phone. He gave me and my husband his advice about our immigration case and how we should proceed with our case even if we do not hire him. He was patient and understanding. He had a lot of information.
"I had the pleasure of working with Kevin James as fellow prosecutors in Brooklyn (Kings County). Over the years, our paths have crossed in both public service and private practice. Kevin has been an outstanding colleague and a generous mentor to me as I transitioned into private practice. He has provided invaluable guidance on building and managing a multi-practice area firm, and we continue to speak regularly. I highly recommend Kevin as a skilled, ethical, and dedicated attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer.I KNOW KEVIN JAMES FOR ABOUT 10 YEARS . I KNOW KEVIN FROM THE BROOKLYN DISTRICT ATTORNEY 'S OFFICE . I MET KEVIN WHEN HE WAS AN ADA .I HAVE ONLY WONDERFUL THINGS TO SAY ABOUT KEVIN .KEVIN IS AN EXCELLENT ATTORNEY THAT FIGHTS ONE HUNDRED PERCENT .HE IS A COMPASSIONATE ,ATTORNEY THAT KNOWS THE LAW AND IS RESPECTED IN THE LEGAL COMMUNITY . MAKE NO MISTAKE KEVIN IS THE LAWYER TO HIRE WHEN YOU NEED THE BEST. HE IS ALSO A GENTLEMAN AND AN ALL AROUND NICE GUY."
"I have known Mr. James for over 8 years. Mr. James is respected in the legal community by his peers, and judges. He has a brilliant mind, considered as a trial attorney the gold standard. Always prepared and thrives in any courtroom. As a former Brooklyn prosecutor, Mr. James has built a high level of trust with judges, jurors and even opposing counsel. This is a trait that is earned, not just learned."
