Posted by anonymous | September 19, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Knowledgeable and Professional

Jim was more than just my attorney during this process. He became a friend who seemed sincerely interested in doing the right thing for me and my future endeavors. I am retired and have a fixed income. Jim was sensitive to my financial needs by speeding up the collaborative divorce process, thus... minimizing costs. He also found ways to save me money through tax minimization. I found his tax expertise to be invaluable. Jim was very easy to talk to and very responsive to my needs during a very tough process and difficult stage of my life. I cannot recommend him enough.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Jim and I have worked on several cases together, some of which were very difficult cases. Jim works diligently and zealously for his clients, yet is delightful to work with from the other side of the issues, but even when on the other side of issues, we were always working together to get the clients through a difficult time in the best possible manner. Jim's professionalism and ethical behavior are stellar."
