A Knowledgeable and Efficient Lawyer
I used James when purchasing my rental property. James was patient and very responsive and put together documents for me several times on short notice. He also made sure I was well informed to make educated decisions about my real estate transaction. I would definitely use James again.
James Charles Tienken's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Tienken represented two defendants in a complex, multi-party, catastrohic injury case in which I was lead counsel for plaintiffs. The case involved numerous depositions and extensive pre-trial proceedings. The case went to trial in January 2010. Mr. Tienken's representation of his clients was vigorous, thorough, meticulous, and ethical. His devotion to his clients was total and complete. His direct and cross-examinations were on point and very well-prepared. During the case I came to know Mr. Tienken to a degree, and found him to be humorous, thoughtful, and fair to work with despite the contentious context of the adversarial relationship. For corporate clients, insurers, and individuals looking for an excellent trial lawyer, potential clients should call Jim Tienken."
