Great Lawyer, considerate man

Jim worked with me on my estate planning when I was diagnosed with a serious illness and then during my divorce. He is a smart, kind and good attorney who knows his stuff. Highly recommend!

Jim is a brilliant lawyer! He was a genius in the courtroom and in depositions! He is well versed in all areas of the law. I am using him for my second lawsuit. Jim is a shark! He will win your case for you! Hire Jim to get the job done!

Please avoid at all cost.

Took over 3 months to complete 2 Conservatorships Of Minors and 2 Petition for Year’s Support. Which they never did. Refused to refund money for documents they did not deliver and refused to refund filing fee charges they never completed. PLEASE AVOID AT ALL COST unless you want to waste over $3000....

I agree with others

Mr Bass may be a wonderful guy but he seems to be a rather weak and ineffective attorney. I agree with the other reviewer where Mr Bass seems to simply roll over for opposing counsel. I've had to secure a new attorney to get my issue accomplished.

I cannot recommend

Mr Bass seemed to get pushed around by the opposing counsel and did not appear to have any real passion to win my case. Thank goodness I switched when I did. As soon as I switched my case took a different and much better course!

"Jim is one of the best in the business. Very easy to work with and responsive to his clients' needs. He takes a personal, caring approach to each client's matter. Jim also has a top-notch staff that is able to keep his client's informed of where their case stands. I would recommend Bass Green, PC to my friends and family."

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.
