Posted by Troy Harskjold | November 12, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Has been my lawyer for 15 years and will be for 15 more

James is one stop shopping. Reasonably priced, stop by his office and make the payment with credit card or cash and he handles everything else with the courthouse. No appearances, returns for payments, etc. He handles it all. That's true legal representation. He has handled many moving and non-mov...ing violations for me and for my friends and family. My daughter got a speeding ticket that should have been considered as reckless driving (>30 mph). What should have been 6 to 8 points on the insurance with a 130%-180% increase in insurance got reduced to 1 point. He even gave her a huge break on price despite my suggestion to charge what most other lawyers would charge for this type of violation as a life lesson. He literally saved me $1000s per year on insurance costs. Worth every dime. 15 more to go.

Fast and to the point

He treated my case with so much time and respect. He never rushed me and helped me out in every possible way. I would recommend him to any and every one!

Great Attorney

Hired him for my mom who was scammed by Craftmatic beds to do a debt settlement. He settled the case quickly at a very affordable price.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
