James W. Metz II

When my back was against the wall and I was searching for a good lawyer, I asked around—and the overwhelming response from people in Livingston County was the same: call Jim Metz. Now I understand why. From the very start, Jim went above and beyond. He met with me right away, asked the hard questi...ons, and took the time to understand not just my case, but who I am as a person. He got to work immediately and stayed in constant communication—checking in with me throughout the week, making sure I was doing everything I needed to in order to have the best possible outcome. What makes Jim different is that he genuinely cares. I’ve had court-appointed attorneys in the past who wouldn’t even return a call—it was night and day compared to the dedication Jim showed. He truly fights for his clients, and he sees you for more than just the mistakes you’ve made. If you’re looking for someone who is not only an incredible lawyer but also a good human being who will stand in your corner and fight for you the right way, I can’t recommend Jim Metz enough. He’s hands down one of the best in Livingston County.

James is an exceptional attorney. Great communicator, kept promptly in touch with me throughout all our court proceedings. James served as assistant prosecutor for a number of years. He holds impressive relations with the Judges, prosecuters, and all the court personnell. He's very well organized..., speaks with confidence at the lectern, and is well versed with law. He cares about his clients personally. He has even checked in with me just to see how I'm doing after my case has concluded. James got me excellent results. Highly Recommend !!

James was referred to me by a close friend and I couldn't be happier that he did. I was very scared about my situation and was filled with guilt before I even spoke to James. After my first consultation with James it was like a weight lifted off my shoulders knowing I was putting my case in his hands.... He was polite and genuinely so easy to talk too. I was nervous I was going to talk to someone and they would make me feel even worse about my mistakes but he never once did that. He acknowledged I made a mistake and I will be able to move forward and put this behind me. He was comforting but also professional. He was able to make my case as short as I believe it could be for my situation and I couldn't be more grateful I found him. If anyone is hesitant about finding an attorney who truly cares about helping you the best they can I suggest James Metz as he was great in helping me.
