Very easy to work with

This was a very easy process thanks to James David Cairns. The E-mail communication was very effective and the responses were fairly quickly. I hopefully won't need another divorce but I will be recommending them for who ever needs one. Thank You !

Easy and Fast

This made the divorce process very easy. The response time was immediate and questions were answered in a clear manner. The directions, procedures, and processes were organized and easy to follow. From start to finish, my divorce was processed in a little under 6 months for a fee of under $600 whi...ch included the divorce, settlement agreement, name change, and two deed changes. Thank you!

Fast, Easy and Inexpensive.

It took less than 1 month from the date I was first in contact with James Cairns to finish, finalize and receive my Divorce Decree in the mail. I would recommend him to any one at all who is ready for a fast and easy No Fault Divorce. Just follow the clear instructions that he sends you and you will ...receive your divorce decree in no time at all!

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.
