James Richard Theuer's Lawyer Endorsements
"Whenever I have a client seeking assistance with a labor or employment related issue, I refer them to Jim Theuer. In fact, I was doing that today when his AVVO profile came up and I stopped what I was doing to write this review. I have found his work to be consistently strong, and my clients have always given me positive feedback on the referrals I have made to him. He is responsive, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I particularly like that he practices in both Virginia and North Carolina, as I do as well, and often have clients who need assistance on both sides of the border."
"Jim provided prompt and thorough advice to my wife who was opening a small business. He provided guidance on required recordkeeping, overtime, discrimination, and a host of other labor/employment issues. She was able to confidently navigate the myriad issues that arose in her business as a result of Jim's assistance. I highly recommend Jim to anyone who needs labor or employment advice."
"I am honored and humbled to endorse Jim. When I get a FLSA case I call him immediately as he is the expert in this field. When I know of someone who needs criminal representation in federal court he is my go to! There is nothing about Jim that isn't BOLD. He is smart, efficient, and courageous. He is a lawyer's lawyer. I am glad to call him a friend as well."
