THE ABSOLUTE BEST

James Reddy is a phenomenal Attorney. I have retained for two Cases for me. He is so honest, ethical, sweet, compassionate, caring, and intelligent. He is extremely thorough as well as very very patient. He takes care of everything and I mean everything. I have working with James for many years and h...e is extremely kind and on top of it all. He is defending me in a Case where the opposing counsel said horrific things about me, none of which are true. I can't thank James enough for everything! I am so grateful I found him. I feel very Blessed. Thank you Jim!

Is An Amazing Attorney

Mr. Reddy is an amazing attorney who is helping me on multiple situations that I have going on and he is superb. He knows the law and every aspect of it and is extremely dedicated to his clients and very loyal. He will stop at nothing to do everything to help his clients in every way he can and he is... extremely passionate about the law and obtaining Justice for his clients. He is sympathetic to his clients and very caring. His empathy is never ending. He is the best. I am so extremely grateful. He works with me on payment plans and is so extremely reasonable. There is nothing I don't feel comfortable telling him. He is one of the most ethical lawyers out there and I trust him to the max. If you are in need of the best attorney to help you out on any matter, here is the lawyer for you. James Reddy is the best.

I'm so glad I found this attorney

When my previous attorney was disbarred and incarcerated, neither of which he told me, I lost faith in lawyers. By the grace of God, I found Attorney James Reddy and I am so grateful. He took over my case for me and he is the most wonderful, excellent, & caring lawyer, who really knows all aspects of... the law. He is extremely efficient and has helped me tremendously. I am so thankful to him.

Knows the Law!

Mr. Reddy has represented me and a family member in both Estate litigation and Divorce. Mr. Reddy gets the desired result because of how approaches his cases. He is very thorough and has an outstanding knowledge of case law and presents his argument with authority. He would be my first choice to repr...esent me and I would be comfortable referring him to anyone.

Client Review

Mr. Reddy is a reliable, knowledgable attorney, who helped me immensly win the custody of my 2 teenage daughters. He knows the law and reads EVERYTHING so as not to fall into an adversery's trap. I retained him after another high paid divorce attorney told me I didnt have a chance of winning custod...y. My divorce is still ongoing, after a lenghty trial and is now in the hands of the judge for a final decision. Mr. Reddy, in my opinion is a fine attorney, who can get the job done.

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.
