I endorse this lawyer. I have known Jim Hannon for many years. He is an excellent attorney and a true professional.
Jeannete Lewis, Medical malpractice Attorney on Oct 18, 2018
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I have known Jim for about 22 of my 25 years of law practice. In recent years I have had the pleasure of working alongside him and his office team on medical malpractice cases. Hands down, he is intelligent, thoughtful, resourceful, respectful, a man of true integrity with tremendous capacity for compassion for others. He is an extremely capable and very skilled trial attorney with a genuine demeanor that connects with juries, adversaries, opposing counsel, judges, experts, and adjusters. He is never when a colleague needs help. He is generous and just a truly wonderful, ethical professional that I am privileged to call my colleague. His practice is plaintiffs personal injury and he is adept at all facets of that. I have co-counseled medical malpractice cases with him and each time our clients remark how grateful they are to have had Jim on our team. If you are considering hiring an attorney, you will not be disappointed with Jim.

Jim is a fantastic with exceptional trial skills. He always goes that extra mile for his clients, and will take a case to trial when other lawyers would fold. I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer.
Paul Dwyer, Personal injury Attorney on Dec 12, 2013
Relationship: Worked for lawyer
If the joke about lawyers is that they cannot be trusted, Jim Hannon wrecks the punchline. He is one of the most honest, straight-shooting men I've ever met -- and knows the law inside out, whether its on personal injury, medical malpractice, class action, premises liability, or civil litigation in general. When someone needs a lawyer, it means they are in crisis. There are few people I would trust more if I were in crisis than Jim Hannon. I'd recommend him to my own family.
Kenneth Walton, Personal injury Attorney on Aug 23, 2011
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I endorse this lawyer. Very smart and motivated lawyer. He has an excellent reputation in the legal community and community at large. He gets very good results for his clients.

I endorse this lawyer. Jim Hannon is one of the the finest lawyers that I know, but, more importantly, one of the finest people that I know. He is truly dedicated to our community and serves South Florida in many capacities through several charitable endeavors. He is very talented and humble almost to a fault. I recommend without hesitation his services and those of his firm in any personal injury matter. It is my sincere honor to be his colleague and sincere privilege to be his friend. Jim's conduct, professional and otherwise, sets an example for all lawyers and members of our community to follow.
John Murray, Medical malpractice Attorney on Mar 4, 2011
