James Anthony May

I was picked up and charged with driving under the influence. I questioned friends and searched on the internet looking for an attorney to represent me. I was advised to be careful as there were a number of very high priced attorneys who did very little but take your money. I interviewed a number of ...lawyers, who were recommended as very competent and experienced. I chose James May. After listening to my recap of events, he put me at ease with his knowledge of the process and his detailed explanation of exactly how he would handle my case. His fees were very reasonable and in line with the other lawyers with whom I spoke. At every step of the way when I had questions, James was there with options and sage guidance. What I was delighted to discover was that James appeared to have an extremely good relationship with the people who were prosecuting me and a keen knowledge of which judges to avoid, if possible. The bottom line is that James got the DUI charges dropped down to careless driving (not even reckless), adjudication was withheld and no points! I am so grateful for James’ hard work and dedication to my case. He is a down to earth, very caring individual and an experienced, knowledgeable attorney who knows how to work the system. I hold him in highest regard and would unconditionally recommend him should the need arise.

My attorney James May got me out of a hot mess as I'm a CDL holder and make my living truck driving. I unfortunately cause the 3 car pile-up on 275 mr. James May found a legal loophole and not only when my points eliminated the entire case was thrown out of court he truly is extremely smart at being ...an attorney thank you James May!!

I would like to thank Mr. May for his care and compassion in my time of need. Mr. May is very knowledgeable in the field of law. He scared me straight and never gave up on a hopeless matter. He stayed in contact with me and made sure I followed all court orders and helped me complete all requiremen...ts of drug court. I recommend Mr. May if you have a need for an attorney.

Last year, a family member of mine had the great misfortune of dealing with a difficult officer in hillsborough county. Her legal scripts landed a total of 8 charges; 2 felonies, 6 misdemeanors. She was freaking out & I was trying to find someone who could properly attack this case & simply get the ...best results. Money was tight so if that someone was reasonable, then bonus. After calling around, asking a few friends, I made contact with a lawyer in Orlando - best of the best. I din't even get half the arrest details out when he says 'I know a lawyer near by you that will be perfect.' I asked if he was experienced, he handles these things; he simply said 'he's good, probably the best I know for this situation.' I had no idea what I was getting; looked around the web but there was little info. I decided to call & feel him out; I had a list I had narrowed down to about 3-4 locally that were all very good. In less than 2 minutes on the phoner & especially in person, you know this is the guy you want - energy, passion, knowledge of the system & the law, ambitious/fearless,, understanding, & a warm & kind spirit. I remained calm until my wife met him; she had to be comfortable with him, she had to choose him. Not easy because she was overwhelmed & stressed like never before. The first office visit was like everyone that followed - Mr. May makes you feel comfortable, he takes the weight, the burden, he makes you laugh & you know that everything is going to ok because somehow you stumbled upon the best guy for the job. Without getting bogged down with details, this situation didn'[t go away over night. I was very involved with the case, the defense, & the progress. Mr May constructed multiple layer; a strong defense, a contingency, a contingency for various contingencies, & a Hail Marry just in case. He was literally thinking of all outs;; including the unlikely possibility of a 'Super-Prosecutor' walking in court with absolute evidence against my wife. All said & done, at a more than reasonable rate, Mr may refused the prosecutor's offer of drug court, he knew he could get better. I was nervous, my wife uneasy - he compelled them to drop 5 of 6 of the misdemeanors, both felonies, & agree to plea no contest to a misdemeanor drug paraphernalia, with a withhold adjudication & do a drug evaluation with 6 months probation. Attorney May wasn't done there - he leaned on them a little more and they agreed that she would be ejected from probation immediately if the drug eval found there were no drug issues. So, from 8 charges including 2 felonies, and evidence - Mr May got7 of 8 dropped & my wife proved to not have a drug problem & she was ejected from probation as soon as possible. He navigated the court system seeking the best scenario to benefit his client, he worked multiple prosecutors, refusing offers most would take, all in pursuit of is initial promise - he said that he will fight for every inch, he will constantly seek the best possible result my wife could be afforded, & he will defend my wife & fight for her every minute of this battle. He lived up to & surpassed all my expectations, all of what he promised, & most importantly, my wife was represented in the best way possible. In summary: James May is great father & family man, a thoughtful, caring friend through a horrific process, & he's the muscle you want in your corner when you need some legal muscle. I don't write these comments for anybody, anything, or any product. I write them so that if you are struggling, nervous, & overwhelmed by some legal issue - Attorney May is a cut above the rest. Get the best, call Mr May to represent you, your family or your dearest friends. You will not be disappointed & I can almost guarantee that when it's over, you'll be writing one of these reviews because you'll want to add to the growing list of evaluations-like me, you'll want to make sure that people fully understand & believe the descriptions of Attorney James M
