Excellent

James kept me informed on everything with my case,very direct about everything. He was also very kind to my family when they were present. He got me a plea deal on 1 case, and got the other one dropped completely. I violated my probation near the end of it and was facing 3 years and he got my probati...on terminated and I faced no time. Thanks again James your the man!

Drug Case & Gun Possession

Excellent services, professionally driven with a true legal expertise. Mr. Tunick exceeded my expectations, he went above and beyond to provide me the best advice and representation. He kept me informed the entire time. He is a legal force to be reckoned with. Mr. Tunick treated me with the utmos...t respect. He is a true champion in his field. He is highly knowledgeable of the law and is highly regarded in the federal and state courts. He worked really hard on my federal case and years before on my state case. I keep coming back to him. I truly recommend his legal services to anyone in need.

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.
