Very Responsive Service, Seamless Process

I had a great experience working with Jim. He provided top notch service, was extremely responsive, and made the entire process of setting up a 501c3 extremely easy and efficient. Highly recommended.

Mr Sayre

Mr Sayre prepared the POA-HC and General POA for my mother. She was hospitalized and deteriorating. Mr Sayre heard my concerns and efficiently prepared the documents so our family could make her wishes known in the event that she can not. Thank you for the peace of mind. Well done.

Quick and easy

My husband and I had been putting off getting our wills drawn up forever because we assumed it would be time consuming and we could never find the time. We were referred to Jim when we decided that we were finally ready and we’d have done this a lot sooner if we had realized just how easy and quick i...t would be! Jim also assisted with LLC paperwork. We had to bring our kids in with us to both meetings and Jim was understanding of this. We’d definitely recommend Jim!

Professional, Knowledgeable and Caring

I can't thank attorney James Sayre enough for his help during a very overdue need in my life. James's knowledge and experience of the law eased my stress and anxiety throughout the entire process. His personal and approachable demeanor made me feel comfortable and not so overwhelmed. He took a genuin...e interest in my well-being. Throughout the entire process I was always well informed, my phone calls promptly returned and all my questions and concerns were addressed. Thank you James for your outstanding job in representing me in my divorce. It was truly a pleasure working with you!

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.
