I have been working with Jim to get my nursing license after making regretful decisions in my past that was going to hinder me from doing so.

"I endorse this lawyer. I met Jim more than 10 years ago when he was opposing counsel on a case I had. Jim was a tough, smart and committed lawyer who represented his client very well. At the same time, he was pleasant to work with, trustworthy and professional. Since that time we have had a few things together and he even served as special judge in a domestic relations case I had in another county. Jim was fair, objective and knowledgeable as a judge. Jim is a great guy and an awesome attorney who is truly committed to serving his clients."
"I have worked with Jim on several cases and would recommend him. He knows the law and is responsive to his clients' needs."
"I worked with Jim on a matter and was impressed with how courteous and responsive he was. He is a great advocate for his clients and I highly recommend him as an Arkansas attorney."
"Although I do not know Mr. Hensley personally, his weekly updates on Arkansas appellate decisions are a tremendous service to the legal community. It is clear that he understands the law and he is able to communicate his understanding in a clear, understandable, and—perhaps most importantly—engaging way."
"I endorse this lawyer. He files every pre trial motion possible and is not afraid to go to trial if he needs to."

"I am privileged to endorse Jim Henlsey as an outstanding criminal defense/family law attorney. Jim is one of the finest, if the not THE finest, attorneys of my acquaintance. He prepares thoroughly for every case and his trial skills are unparalleled. He is a credit to the Arkansas Bar."
"I've worked with Jim as an opposing counsel and as counsel for clients charged as co-defendants. I've found him to be a conscientious lawyer that cares about the quality of service he provides his clients and strives to obtain the best results possible for them."
