Challenging case...

Mr. Jennings was referred by a family friend...as one of the best employment attorneys in Dallas...! I have to say I fully concur...While my case is very challenging, Jim jumped in to tackle it...He & his staff were expedient, professional, supportive and assertive to my cause...!! I would highly re...commend Jim Jennings to any one in need of his counsel...!!

Amazing lawyer

Mr. Jennings and his team was amazing. The were quick and on top of everything. He explained everything and made sure I agreed with every step made.

Pleasantly Surprised

Retaining an attorney against my company is nothing that I dreamed I would need to do and Mr. Jennings has been just wonderful. This is just the beginning of my case but he reached out to me on a Saturday, jumped in and started immediately and made me feel at ease. I could not be more pleased, so f...ar I would highly recommend him.

Simply Amazing

Mr.Jennings did an amazing job on my case! He got me every penny possible. He was relentless and did not let me get pushed around. He was simply fantastic.

The complete legal package

I found that the value offered by the firm as listed on their website was delivered by Jim Jennings. The representation was aggressive, efficient, and effective. He didn't have much to work with yet quickly developed and executed what I felt was a complex strategy. I haven't had the need to use a...n attorney in the past but I can't imagine anyone with stronger communication or legal skills wrapped up with hard work. Jim was even responsive while he was out of the country on personal time. Thanks Jim...

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.
