About James
Biography
For me, it is pretty simple. You have been in an automobile or motorcycle accident and you are facing questions that you never expected. These may include:
- Who is going to pay for your medical bills?
- Can I trust this insurance company?
When I have questions, I want answers. If I am paying an attorney a portion of personal injury settlement, I expect answers. I make it simple. My cell phone is.
I use my cell phone so I am available to my clients. Why? Because my clients are the ones going through this stressful event and a five minute phone call can make all the difference in the world. Yes you might catch me in the car or with the kids screaming in the background but, unlike most attorneys you can catch me.
You have questions and I do this kind of work every day. I have done it for over 20 years. Nevertheless, I would suggest you judge for yourself. Pick up the phone and call me. You will deal directly with me, not a paralegal or an answering service.
My phone number is and I am waiting for your call.

He has been my accident lawyer for years.
I have used Jim for several accidents I have been. He is prompt and always there to answer. Y questions. Also, he fought for me and got me a more than I expected.
