a real professional

James, handled my case like a real professional. He kept me informed of the laws surrounding the case, gave me his game plan and executed it as planed. He handled the court room the same way . he knew just what to say and ask of the officers involved and made the deal I expected him to make with the ...prosecution. If you need help call him !!

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.
