Dishonest Person More Of A Scammer Than Lawyer

I had an extremely negative experience with this divorce lawyer and would strongly caution anyone considering hiring them. After taking my retainer, they failed to file a required response on my behalf, despite repeated assurances that the matter was being handled. Deadlines passed with no action, no... filings, and little to no communication. This negligence put my case at serious risk and caused unnecessary stress, delays, and financial loss. When I tried to get answers, my calls and emails were ignored or met with vague excuses. At no point was I informed of any legitimate reason for failing to act, nor was my money refunded. In my opinion, this behavior is unprofessional and unethical. A lawyer’s most basic duty is to protect their client’s interests and meet court deadlines, and this lawyer failed to do so. I regret trusting them and would advise others to look elsewhere for competent and reliable legal representation.

Avoid this Lawyer at all costs!

William James needs to be avoided at all costs. He stole $5000 from me and did not do anything on my case, causing me problems and harm. He's already been in trouble with the Bar before and he needs to have his license revoked. You will do his best talking you into what you wanna hear making it so...und like he knows what he's going to do, but then he will not answer his phone, not show up for meetings and he end up just taking your money through Venmo like a drug dealer and never returning it Only getting you in trouble with the court. The only thing more dangerous than this Lawyer is my ex-wife herself. Avoid both at all costs.

completely Unprofessional Thief

At the VERY least, he did absolutely nothing, jeopardized the entire case, and stole $3500 from a military member. This is doesn't come close to encompassing all of the other things he did and didn't do.

Excellent divorce lawyer

As a Father of 2 young boys 8 and 3 I am thankful I found Mr. James who kept me apprised of the entire process. The result was a blessing and I wish I could add more than 5 stars!!!
