Look elsewhere

Only leaving a 1 star review because I can't leave a 0 star review. James sucked the retainer dry in no time with no work to show for it and asked for it to be refilled multiple times with no progress. I ended up firing James because he couldn't write in clear concise words. After firing James I was ...able to settle my case in 2 days while representing myself. Do yourself a favor, read the reviews and find a more reputable attorney.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Although I have never worked directly with James Warner officially, we formerly worked in the same office and would frequently discuss various legal matters. Also, I observed a high level of dedication he showed to his practice. On numerous occasions, I would see James working late into the evening, and sometimes on weekends, obviously putting his clients' well being ahead of other matters in his life. In short, James Warner is knowledgable, experienced, and most of all, passionate about the representation he provides his clients. I endorse James Warner 100 percent!"

Avvo Rating

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.
