Practice Areas

Employment and Labor 50%

I handle mostly unpaid overtime wage and unpaid minimum wage claims for individuals and in class actions. I also represent employees with Family and Medical Leave Act claims.

23 years | 100 cases

50%
Business 20%

I help people create and manage their businesses from the ground up. I also help them deal with taxing authorities, shareholders and succession plans.

28 years | 40 cases

20%
Litigation 20%

Disputes arise all the time between businesses and individuals. The question up front is always "Do I have a case?" I can answer that, yes or no, relatively quickly. If a legal proceeding is necessary, then I can handle that throughout Ohio and out of Ohio in federal courts. As a caveat, more than 90% of cases are either resolved by settlement or judgment before trial.

Probate 10%

Assisting families with the process of distributing and passing on a deceased loved one's assets is extremely satisfying. My team and I have done it many times. For better or worse, we have also experienced the process personally.

Above and beyond!

Jim helped both my mother and me in the preparation of our wills, trusts, POAs, and advanced directives. In my estate planning, there was a special circumstance which Jim researched thoroughly to make sure that all bases would be covered and that my family would be protected. We were very pleased wi...th the documents he prepared and the counseling he provided which gave us piece of mind. Jim offers professional competence as well as a caring personal touch. I highly recommend him.

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.
