James McMinn is an amazing defense attorney. The best in Winston Salem!! He works relentlessly & tirelessly in the court room to get his clients those dismissals, reductions, etc. He CAN & WILL get your license back!! He is a smart, reliable, affordable straight shooter.

If you need help getting your license back or for any other legal matter, look no further, you're on the right page!

My son was charged with driving while intoxicated and Attorney McMinn represented him. The advice that he gave us from day one was very solid and helpful as the case unfolded. He told us what to expect and what not to expect and that shows a lot of experience dealing in with these matters. Attorne...y McMinn was available to us every time that we needed to speak to him or he called us back in a timely manner. My son had maintained his innocence throughout the process and in the end we were able to get a not guilty verdict with a jury trial. Thank you All Mighty God! And thank you Atty James McMinn. My son can now get his life back together again. Attorney McMinn showed the skill and passion representing my son that I would not rate second to any other attorney. We would definitely use him again.

I was charged with failure to stop for a stopped school bus in 2013 when McMinn was appointed to my case. Knowing that winning my case would not benefit his pocket's, he still gave 110% in the courtroom. I appealed my case to Superior Court, where his true love for being a lawyer was shown. He dug up... facts from cases 30 years old, and pulled every string in the book to give my case a strong chance. He won the jury over with his easygoing and approachable personality, and through witty conversation, well done research and detailed knowledge of the law, he won my case. He was dependable for keeping in contact, had my best interest in mind at all times, and my confidence in his ability to do his job properly was never questioned.

I was blessed with this attorney’s name when I was in court asking for a continuance for 12 charges –all misdemeanors however all carried jail time and/or current & future employment consequences. Although James advised that he planned to get the charges dropped; my faith only allowed me to hope for... a consolidation of all of them to maybe only one charge. James spoke to me decisively and professionally from my first communication as well as represented me in my absence on one court date. On subsequent court dates; James keep me informed of expectations including options, timings and his legal opinion as well a calling me to confirm my attendance and plans on the eve of the final court date. During trial, James encountered duel opposition from the prosecutor as well as the witness. When I say that James literally “threw the book” at the Judge, he did just that— citing from a law that has been on the books since the 1800 as well as presenting the legal manual from where he did his research. After this, the prosecutor had no arguments against his motion to dismiss ALL charges and neither could the Judge find any argument.. Result—DISMISS ALL CHARGES. 10 out of 10 stars if I could and I trust I will never need him again however if I get a jay walking citation; my next call will be to James McMinn. He will get the job done in your favor. My advice would be to hire him prior to your accuser hiring him.
