Attorney James Holliday’s journey to the courtroom started in Central Florida. Born in Orlando and raised in Longwood, he earned a hard-won ROTC scholarship to Stetson University, where he did well in school and took on leadership roles across campus while also competing in mock trial. After graduating with a business degree in 1990, he was commissioned in the U.S. Army and served as a Transportation Corps officer. He went on to earn his law degree with honors from Stetson University College of Law in 1994, after interning with the U.S. Attorney’s Office and earning top recognition for his legal writing and performance in Torts. Known for his strong work ethic and thorough trial prep, Holliday has received major peer honors, including lifetime selection as a “Best Attorney,” recognition as one of America’s Top 100 High Stakes Litigators, and membership in the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. He’s also active in leading trial lawyer groups focused on helping injured people seek justice.

"I endorse this lawyer. Jim helped increase the value of several litigation cases I referred to him due to his meticulous trial preparation. The clients were not only pleased with the results but were greatly satisfied with the level of communication Jim and his office provided throughout their personal injury cases. I will certainly be referring additional cases to Jim in the future and encourage other attorneys to consider Jim if they are looking for a great attorney to help out with any type of personal injury case from simple to complex."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jim Holliday is an energetic, efficient attorney who ably represents his clients. He carefully prepares his cases for trial and as a result is very credible when he seeks to resolve cases in mediation. Most of his cases are referrals from other attorneys who entrust their clients to him because he treats them well and returns them when the case is completed. He has my highest recommendation."
