I started my legal career here in Palm Beach County over 37 years ago. During that time I have had the opportunity to meet and help thousands of clients, many of whom have become lifelong friends. To this day the expressions of gratitude that I have received from them reaffirms my commitment to my clients. My greatest pleasure comes when I am given the opportunity to assist someone whose parents were my clients years ago, because those parents have the confidence to direct their now adult children to my office for assistance with their legal needs.

Mr. Hicks took his time in explaining to me what my options were with regard to a prospective personal injury case. I had a car accident, and I also needed information about property damage and PIP benefits. He did not talk down to me, and he seemed to really care about my situation.

I have had the privilege of working both with and against this excellent lawyer. A longtime member of the Palm Beach County legal community, Mr. Hicks enjoys a reputation as a smart and tenacious lawyer. I would recommend him to anyone needing legal services.
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Hicks is well versed in the law, is thoughtful and determined in his representation of his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jim is an excellent advocate for his clients. He is sharp, intelligent and has tremendous experience helping the injured throughout Florida. He is professional and knows his way around a courtroom."
"I have known, liked and respected Jim Hicks since law school. He is an intelligent, hard working, dedicated and talented lawyer. You would be in extremely good hands if he were to represent you."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jim is a fantastic lawyer who takes great pride in obtaining the best results for his clients. I have no hesitation in recommending Jim for any personal injury matter, as I know it will get handled promptly, professionally, and with the best results possible."
"I formerly worked for Mr. Hicks and subsequently have co-counseled cases with him. So I have an in-depth appreciation for his skills as a lawyer. I hold him in the highest regard. He is a seasoned pro, as comfortable in the courtroom as he is negotiating and settling claims pre-suit. if the need were to arise, I would trust my own personal injury claim to him. For a personal injury case, you cannot do better than to hire Jim Hicks."
