Clear and Thoughtful Estate Planning Advice

Jim was extremely knowledgeable and provided clear, practical guidance tailored to our family’s specific estate planning needs. He walked us through several alternatives, thoughtfully explaining the pros and cons of each so we could make well-informed decisions with confidence. Jim and his staff were... wonderful to work with—professional, responsive, and efficient—and they put our plan in place in a very timely manner. We highly recommend him.

Posted by Mitch | December 07, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Probate

Jim was the difference maker...the sharp & honest legal mind I needed!

We prevailed in our quiet title case. Jim Fletcher is the best. If it can be won Jim can win it! If you want a specialist who can get results without you feeling like you are fighting your attorney(s) as well as your case at the same time then hire Jim, you won't regret it. His billing is VERY ...fair for what you get. Jim is a rare mix of acute legal skill/depth of knowledge, transparency and integrity. These attributes WILL make the difference between winning your case and losing your case. Not all attorneys are built the same. Some are "craftsmen" others have scant legal knowledge all the while masquerading as "experts"and you may only find out when it is too late and you have spent tens ofthousands of dollars. Other attorneys are solely in it to make a buck. Jim is THAT "craftsman". He is professional and supremely competent at his "craft". If you are going to go to "war" you need the best tools to afford yourself the best shot at winning. I hired Jim to help me with a quiet title case in September 2018. The quiet title portion of my case was only filed April 24 2019, so only 7 months & a week from start to finish. Before that we were in probate court. It only took that long because it was a complicated case which was hard-fought by the opposing party. The short version is that I needed a specialist and 15months later I am happy to say we prevailed! Jim's advice and attention to detail was the difference-maker and it would not have happened without Jim!. He was measured and consistent in his approach. I never felt like I was one of 1000 other cases he had. In fact, his attention to detail and well laid our legal arguements is what brought the other side to the table to negotiate and offer a settlement. When they pushed he pushed back! Each month when I got my bill it was fair...when he did send me a bill during the months where there was no activity he would NOT bill though he had every opportunity to "manufacture billing" which is what many attorneys do. Integrity and thoroughness and depth of knowledge are a rare combination and you will find them in the Fletcher Law Firm and Jim
