highly recommend

James helped me navigate a difficult divorce, and helped me to stay focused on what mattered. His experience enabled him to see what was coming and prepare. I also felt like he gave me good advice about my options and is a kind, compassionate and ethical professional. I highly recommend him.

James helped a lot

James picked up my case from another lawyer, who was waisting money without result. He were able to help me thru a very hard divorce situation with minimum time and money. He listens and he does the job, great experience.

Great divorce lawyer

I had a need to consult with an experienced divorce lawyer over a holiday weekend and James was the only one that took the time out of his schedule to return my call and set up an appointment. After meeting with him I knew he would represent me well, have my best interests at heart, and guide me thr...ough a contentious divorce. When division of assets became very challenging, he reminded me of my options and to focus on what I wanted to do. James helped me through a challenging divorce and was a pleasure to work with. He was always on time and answered any questions I had in a timely manner. I recommend consulting with and hiring James if anyone is in need of an experienced divorce lawyer in the area.

  • 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.
