Best Lawyer

I have used Jim for 2 cases now, one is still going through courts. Unfortunately I made a very big mistake and did not use him for two other cases and I'm now paying dearly for that mistake. DONT MAKE SAME MISTAKE OR UNDERESTIMATE HIM, HE IS THE BEST OF THE BEST.

Attorney Extra Ordinary...

When it comes to hiring a Criminal Defense Attorney, there are virtually thousands to choose from. Like Forrest Gump's famous analogy,..."Attorneys are like a box of chocolates. You never know what your going to get." Sad, but true...not all lawyers are the same. Many have far reaching objectives an...d petty agendas that can be the driving vehicle for your case's outcome. Other attorneys lack the higher legal skills to navigate your case and your interest through the complicated legal system. When you retain and hire James Kontos for legal representation, you can leave all of that at his door step. I have known many attorneys in my life and have yet to find one that posses the skills, quality and personal integrity that Jim carry's in his brief case every day. He will always put his client's interest first and foremost. He never plays legal games and prosecutors call for help when he shows up with a new case. In my opinion Jim is one of the top ten defense attorneys in all of Central Florida. If you hire him, you will receive the finest legal representation money can buy...

Recommendation

Highly recommend Jim!! I was arrested for two high level drug felonies that could of potentially destroyed my career, and life for that matter. He fought my case and got both felonies dropped! He is the best at what he does and has the results to prove it.
