Personal injury Attorney | Jan 10
Relationship: Co-worker
"I endorse this lawyer. Having worked with Jim for about 2 years, I found that he represented the firm's clients with determination, effectiveness, honesty, and integrity. Also, he related with other people, including judges, their clerks, opposing counsel, legal assistants, team members, and clients real well. Further, he made good decisions and exercised good judgment, even in difficult situations. Lastly, Jim is a real good trial lawyer and negotiator. He can try a case well and negotiate well. If asked to recommend a personal injury attorney, I would recommend Jim."
