This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Car accident case

Jim fought hard for me. He provided me the help I needed. Any contact with him was always pleasant! He was never arrogant or demeaning like others in his position sometimes are. I always looked forward to talking to him. I am very thankful he was my lawyer and could not have asked for a better set...tlement.

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.
