Personal Injury

I hired Mr. Flood to be my attorney for a personal injury case. He is professional and knowledgeable, but personable and ready to answer questions in detail. He took his time to explain issues related to the case and give legal advice. I feel very comfortable working with him. During the course o...f the lawsuit, I was updated frequently about the progress. I am very satisfied with the outcome. My gratitude goes to Mr. Flood and his associates. I highly recommend Mr. Flood's legal services.

DIVORCE COUNSEL

I can't say enough good things about my dealings with Jim, he did all i needed done in a very short time. I had a bad situation due to a different lawyer, and Jim and his group did everything necessary to resolve this for me. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone i know who needs legal help....

The Best

Jim is my 3rd Divorce Attorney. 3 years with my other attorneys, my case hasn't progressed much. Jim took a weekend to review my file, found all the discrepancies that I complained about to my other attorney who did nothing. My husband has a "team" of attorney's he brings into court EVERY hearing/m...otion, his team have walked all over my Attorney's until Jim came along. It is so refreshing to be in court and know that Jim can argue the opposing side into submission, this man KNOWS the law! I used to be a paralegal, and so many attorneys will drag a case out and nickel and dime a client until they haven't any money left. Jim immediately laid everything out on the table, told me what was worth pursuing and what was not, he's been around, knows the Judges and is very well respected by all his peers. I couldn't be happier.

Amazing!!! Great option office right next to the courthouse

I went to James W. Floods office about a year ago for help with a custody dispute. He was very pleasant and detailed. He let me know everything I would need to do and what he thought the next steps should be. I was not familiar with being at a courthouse and was very nervous he really calmed me down ...and walked me through the process. Anytime I called or emailed he responded in a timely manner and when I had difficulty getting information from my sons school his office was able to step in and help. I am proud to say that I did win my case thanks to James and everyone that works at his office and already plan to use him to complete my divorce. So if you are looking for any legal advice or need a lawyer who is straight forward, hardworking, understanding, flexible, available, and passionate about his work, then I would strongly recommend that you contact James W. Flood!
