James A. Rocco III

Jim is my attorney in an extremely messy and complex divorce. He was extremely successful in representing me during the custody phase. He defended me against contempt for protecting my children and won. We had one of the toughest judges you could get and he was again successful and we won. Not only d...id he ensure that my children remained safe in my care in Philadelphia, but he also went above and beyond to develop a connection with my children and made sure they felt safe and protected. We are still fighting our way through the rest of this complex divorce but I am extremely confident in his knowledge and abilities thus far in every appearance he’s made on my behalf, and I am very happy with the decisions he’s won in my favor. I’d also like to note that his legal assistant Ashley is amazing. She is very responsive, always warm and friendly, and will do whatever she can to help as quickly as she can. I highly recommend Jim Rocco and am very grateful to both he and Ashley for all they have done for me and my children.

I’ve been working with Mr Rocco for the past four months. We had an all day(8hour) hearing yesterday in Philadelphia family court. Jim Rocco was nothing short of outstanding in the courtroom. My children are young, it would be nieve of me to assume this will be the last hearing I have. It is extreme...ly comforting to know I got Rocco when I need him! (Custody was returned to me, the father, yesterday)

Jim Rocco is the most unprofessional attorney I have ever had. I was referred to him due to his low hourly rate and boy do you get what you pay for. Mr. Rocco only wanted my money and didn’t want to put the work in. He continually put himself before myself, his clients needs and failed to update m...e on countless custody issues I was dealing with, thus causing me a very poor outcome and limited custody with my children. I was never able to reach him and he never answers emails. He had a lot of lip service and promises in the beginning such as I know everyone at the courthouse, sign on with me and I guarantee you get what you want, all of which all ended up being lies. I wish I read these reviews before hiring him as they are spot on. Do not trust Jim Rocco and go to a real attorney.

I only wish I read the reviews on Jim Rocco before I wasted my time meeting with him. I went in for a free consultation and Jim Rocco’s I arrogance on how he knows everyone and use his relationships with Judge’s to get what his clients want was a red flag for me as no good attorney every makes promi...ses. He even bragged about opposing parties whose lives he ruined, not caring about the best interest of the children. Made me sick to think that individuals actually hire this so called “attorney” to represent them in Family Court. BEWARE…..Jim Rocco is unethical and only cares about his billable hours and money. Find a real attorney, there are plenty on this website, just not this one.

Was referred to this attorney by a relative, and spent tons of money and about 8 months getting nowhere. Found out he was weak in litigation and confused on most custody and money matters. Got an old timer who fixed the problems in a month for a reasonable amount. This lawyer seems nice but he is no ...trial lawyer and was no help at all in my case except in collecting my money.
