During his time at Legal Aid of Western Missouri, James represented clients in both state and federal courts handling a diverse range of issues including consumer bankruptcy, debt defense, foreclosure litigation, and small estate planning.
After nearly five years at Legal Aid of Western Missouri, James joined the Callahan Law Firm in 2017. Since joining the firm, James has continued to represent clients in bankruptcy proceedings and collections lawsuits, and has further grown his practice to include advocating for his clients' rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), and numerous other state and federal laws which provide relief for consumers who have suffered at the hands of unscrupulous lenders and financial entities.
James is a member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA) and the National Association of Consumer Attorneys (NACA). Outside of work, James is a Kansas City native who enjoys spending time with his wife, his two children, and their family dogs.

James R. Crump's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse James Crump. I've worked closely with James on consumer protection matters since 2019. We've handled dozens of Fair Credit Reporting Act cases together, and in that time I've grown to learn a great deal from James about bankruptcy practice and other facets of consumer law. He is a hard-worker, relentless consumer advocate, and creative thinker. He makes time for his clients and does a fantastic job explaining things in plain terms instead of lawyer-speak. I genuinely enjoy working with James and value his opinion as a colleague and as a friend."
