also known as J. Josh Collum, Josh Collum
Success stems from hard work, sacrifice, and an indomitable spirit. It is not given freely and it does not occur randomly. It is earned. I come from a long line of working class people and this was a familiar lesson - a lesson I took to heart.
A native of Greenville, Mississippi, I graduated with high honors from the University of Mississippi. I earned my Juris Doctorate with honors, also from Ole Miss, where I was a member of the Moot Court Board and Phi Delta Phi International Legal Honor Fraternity. After earning my law degree, I went on to the University of Florida Levin College of Law, where I obtained a Master of Laws, a step very few attorneys in this country take.
I have experience representing plaintiffs and defendants in numerous industries. Prior to joining the Pinkerton Law Firm, PLLC, I worked at another prominent south Texas firm, where I worked to secure substantial verdicts and settlements for clients injured in auto, trucking, workplace, and premises liability accidents. Licensed to practice law in Texas, Mississippi, and Tennessee, I have represented clients in commercial litigation in state and federal courts and in alternative dispute resolution proceedings.
The key to success is persistence and, as such, I approach each case with unrelenting tenacity. Combining unflinching advocacy with compassion and understanding for those who have been harmed, I am firmly dedicated to fighting for the rights of my clients.

His attitude helped put me at ease, his expertise relaxed me in a very pressure packed situation. I was completely out of my element. Felt very intimidated. Once I met James it was a huge relief.
