James Gary Sullivan

I hire Mr. Sullivan to represent me on my High Profile Case. From the very beginning Mr. Sullivan was very responsive every time a needed him to take my call he answered all my questions and made sure I was at ease throughout the case. He manage to get one of the two cases dismissed and keep me out o...f jail. He was always on time on court appearances and fought to get the best outcome possible. My family and I are very happy with our decision to hire attorney James Sullivan. Very professional and at no time I felt misrepresented. Thank you Mr. Sullivan for taking me as your client and for the outcome obtained at court.

I got arrested on an aggravated assault charge and was very concerned, stressed and anxious with what was going to happen to me because you are no longer in control of your life. I contacted James Sullivan and he got with me in a timely manner and after meeting with him, I looked no further. He is ...a knowledgeable, trustworthy, intelligent person that will work hard for you. He suggested an approach that I had not even considered. He said it is much faster than a jury trial, as felony jury trials could take between one to two years because of the backup due to Covid. He also charged less than a trial fee. WIthin two months of hiring him, James investigated, prepared, and turned in a thorough defense packet for the grand jury to consider. It took the prosecutor two more months before he presented the case, and the grand jury dismissed my case. Another thing about James that I appreciated was the customer service. When I called him he answered the phone, and when I texted him, I would get a quick response. I can't thank him enough for what he has done for me, and I highly recommend him for any criminal matter you may have. Thanks again, James!

I recommend Mr. Sullivan 100% to anyone trying to get the best result in their felony case. I was very impressed with his professionalism and care. He was never late to any of my court settings and he gave me good advice on what to do to help my case. He soon became more than a lawyer and more like a... friend by being there for me on my struggles with my case and life. I was charged with aggravated assault of a family member with a firearm. My case was a really bad one, but Mr. Sullivan was able to get the best result possible. I expected to get 15 years or more in prison, but at the end of everything he worked out a deal for a misdemeanor where I only spent four months in Harris County jail. This was a slap on the hand compared to what I expected. Mr. Sullivan was very diligent in his work and knew what he was doing at all times. He even speaks really good Spanish and was able to communicate with my sister since she doesn't speak English well. I recommend Mr. Sullivan to anyone looking for a professional, responsible, caring, smart, and effective lawyer. He really cares for his clients and that's something that is hard to find nowadays. He even helped me with a great payment plan. He is worth way more than what he asked me for and I am greatly appreciative for his work, professionalism, and friendship. He is a very smart person and he is always giving advice for life betterment. I really admire him and don’t have anything negative to say. He is so humble and a great person to be around. He knows the law like the palms of his hands and even on the first day he prognosticated what the prosecutor’s offer was going to be (15 years TDC) and what he was going to get it down to (1 year HCJ) and he did it even though I thought it was impossible. Thank God for people like him, thanks to him I'm done with all my problems now and I'm thankful to him for everything he did, thank you Mr. Sullivan. Sincerely, M. Delagarza

I have had epilepsy since 2010. In July 2017 I had a seizure and while in a postictal statefollowing the seizure I lit a gasoline fire on the garage’s concrete floor of a rental house.It was an irrational attempt to defend my wife from a former friend and tenant who wasattacking her. During the attac...k, he accidentally knocked over a gas can that spilled gas.The fire stopped the attack but also spread to the gas can, which my wife immediatelythrew into the front yard and was extinguished by the police that arrived a few momentslater. My wife had called the police a few minutes before because the former friend hadthreatened to get his gun. He is also a drug user and violent, but his father is a policeofficer. As a result, even though my wife’s parents witnessed what happened, I was theone arrested by the police and charged with arson after the fire marshal’s office gotinvolved.Attorney Jim Sullivan was highly recommended to me by an associate that works at a lawfirm in Houston. I gave Mr. Sullivan a call that day and spoke with his associate NancyBotts, who took thorough notes on the case, and passed the word onto Jim who thenreturned my call within hours. We spoke about 45 minutes about my incident and what alltook place. He agreed to accept my first degree felony case that day for a very reasonableamount of money. Shortly after that we all met in person for a few hours to discuss theentire story, my medical problem and the erratic behavior that took place. After askingmy wife and her parents detailed questions about their observations that day and the next,he believed that my condition played a role in the event. He believed strongly from dayone that the charges were wrong and unjust. Jim always represented himself to beconfident in our ability to have my case dismissed from court, long before ever having togo to trial. Jim said that it is exceedingly rare for an epilepsy defense to work, but he wasconfident he could do it.Hurricane Harvey caused a delay in my case due to the courthouse flooding. Jim Sullivanalways represented me in timely, professional, and caring fashion. He spent immenseamounts of time researching epilepsy, learning what it is, the various types of seizure,how it affects a person, along with tons of man hours putting together an incredibledefense packet to present to the grand jury. He also asked my neurologist detailedquestions about whether a simple partial seizure could explain my erratic behavior, mymemory recall two hours later when I was questioned by the police and other pertinentdetails of the case. The neurologist agreed that a simple partial seizure was entirelyplausible and possible, that my behavior would have been non-volitional and agreed towrite a letter explaining why. Once the grand jury read over the lengthy defense packet,the week after Thanksgiving, my case was no billed.Throughout this entire process, I had two brain surgeries and am now seizure free. JimSullivan and his practice were amazing and I would highly recommend him to friends,family, and everyone. Lord forbid if I am ever again in a situation that would involve hisexpertise, I will certainly call Jim Sullivan and seek his counsel before ever trying anyoneelse

I cannot thank Jim Sullivan as much as I want to for the huge help with my case in Harris County. I was falsely accused of theft at work, fired and charged with theft. I was looking and looking and got a recommendation for this great man from a friend. What started as a call became a face to face con...versation. He understood what I was going through and listened to all the fine details of my case. He told me he would try his best to get things fixed. And as he said he would he was by my side every court date making sure I was getting good representation. I am one of the Dreamer kids who was brought here as a child and a plea to a theft charge would’ve resulted in my not ever becoming a U.S. citizen. As a result of his hard work in court date after court date, he got my cased solved and dismissed. I was so glad. I felt the weight lifted off my back. I cannot thank you enough for standing beside me, believing in me and your confidence. You are truly a great man and for that I wanted to thank you.
