Latoya Roberta-Angela James

We won! The process of going through an unwanted experience of a trial with a sibling in family court, where I have never had to go, was made less stressful and appropriately pleasant with the outstanding professionalism, competency, and excellent execution and service by my attorney Latoya James E...sq. When contacting my local police department for help, they recommended that I call the Long Island Advocates office. A counselor who helped me file suggested I get an attorney and when asked who, he recommended Ms. James. I reached out to her to take my case in a family dispute. Her experience was evident in her preparation with me and the requested information she asked for to prepare and plead my side of the case. Ms. James was patient, compassionate, understanding and kind. After a 10 month journey to try to avoid a trial it arrived. The trial was an all day affair and throughout the day Ms. James was “on point”. She was meticulous in her understanding of what occurred and “didn’t miss a beat” of evidence presented on both sides. Her cross-examination was outstanding. The result was “I won”! Ms. James, when presented with the facts and evidence, put together a process that was on target and proved my case. I have and would absolutely recommend her for legal disputes.

Let me start by saying Ive had a family cases going on for 3 years, (6 years if prior cases counted) it was clear the man who abandoned my son long ago had full control in every court date, and my sons rights w were non-existent. About a year and a half ago I was referred to LaToya James. From day ...one she was very transparent about every detail, And all the possible outcomes- but always said she would do everything in her power to fight for my rights and my sons rights, and she did not lie. Even with covid happening she stayed in close contact with details and remained very much on top of my case. I am so thankful to have had such a hardworking, knowledgeable lawyer working on our side. The results of the case turned out better then I would have ever imagined. If you are seeking a family attorney that will work relentlessly hard for you, while being completely honest and transparent - she is the the one. If in the future if something arises from this situation again- I wouldn’t even consider another attorney.

We hired Mrs. James to represent our son in a custody case with 2 of his daughters. She listened to his wants pertaining to custody and provided him with true feedback on what she could deliver. Ms. James was a true advocate for the best interest of my grandchildren, all the while fighting to meet th...e needs of my son. She is very knowledgeable in her line of work, and was always available to provide clarity or assurance when something was unclear. Today, my sons case was settled, Ms. James delivered what she promised when we retained her. We are forever grateful for the fight she conducted on our sons behalf. LaToya, words can never express our gratitude we are forever thankful to you!

Ms. James represented me in a domestic violence case and obtaining an order of protection. I had never been through any situation similar to this before and Ms. James was able to provide so much insight and answer all of my questions along the way. My case was dragged out for far too long, but Ms. Ja...mes remained professional, calm and persistent. In the end, Ms. James was able to win my case despite many mishaps. I would highly recommend Ms. James to anyone I know.
