Cpo Case

James was very responsive and very professional with handling my cpo case, he's very productive in gathering all the information. He gathered all my information in less then 72 hours, he also answered other questions I had about things that had nothing to do with the cpo case. Overall very pleased wi...th his work and would recommend him to anyone.

His brief-writing, oral argument, and general knowledge of appellate law were outstanding.

Criminal defense lawyer | Jun 01

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I know from working on cases where James was on the other side that he was very prepared for the case and knew the law. James was always fair and well respected around the courthouse. James is the type of lawyer that even though he was strong advocate, you could still shake hands with him afterwards as professionals."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
