Legal Representation Par Excellence

Jim Davis represented me in a case several years and essentially saved my career. His knowledge and application of the applicable legal principles and case law resulted in a positive result and the case being dismissed. From the initial consultation to the final positive outcome, Jim flawlessly navig...ated the legal minefield while displaying ethics above reproach. Even though I was experiencing a significant degree of trepidation due to the facts of the case as I understood them; Jim was relentless in his defense of my position. Although he never guaranteed a positive outcome, his strategic and tactical preparedness girded my underlying belief that I would be exonerated due to HIS expertise. Other than prayer, I can't recommend anything more infallible than Jim Clark Davis', III representation.

Jim Davies DWI

Phenomenal lawyer. Provided incredible communication with me throughout my entire trial. Extremely reliable. Jim won me my case and got me the second chance I was desperatly seeking.

Professional attorney for professional clients.

I am a professional with a career and license that could have greatly been affected by my charges. Jim negotiated strongly against a strict district attorney's office to get me a fair plea to protect my career.

Great lawyer - went beyond the call of duty

Being from NJ we did not know any lawyers up in the Albany area when a family member developed an issue with the law related to alcohol and driving. Jim was recommended by a buddy who lives near Albany and we could not have been more satisfied with the service Jim provided. Our case required Jim to d...o a bit more traveling than was customary for his firm and for that we were very grateful. The outcome reached was extremely satisfactory and we owe it all to Jim. If you hire Jim you will not be one bit disappointed, you will get a true professional and a regular guy who cares about his clients. You will not some stuffed suit with a pompous attitude, Jim really wants to help good people get a decent result and a fair shake from the judicial system.

Legal expertise

I hired Jim Davis to handle a serious criminal case. At our first meeting, Jim immediately made me feel at ease and listened intently to my concerns. After a long consultation, Jim explained my options in detail and he came up with a plan of attack. In the proceeding months, Jim discovered an inconsi...stency in the evidence, expertly negotiated the case in court, and obtained the result we had set out to achieve. Aside from Jim's legal expertise, his genuine concern for me and my well being was above and beyond what I had expected. Jim is not only a diligent, competent lawyer, he is an honorable and caring man as well.
