Highly recommend!

Our company hired Mr. French to assist us with issues concerning our organizations residential property tax . There were many unexpected/unnecessary twists and turns with this case. Mr. French stayed the course and showed resilience. We ended up winning the case which helped our facility greatly as w...e are a nonprofit organization. Mr. French did a great job of keeping me in the loop on any updates along the way. I would highly recommend James French with Semler & Associates.

Real Estate Dispute

I consulted with Jim, on an ongoing real estate dispute concerning a contract. Jim took time out of his day to give me excellent legal advice in a professional manner. Clearly understands the value of treating clients with respect and give them his full attention.

Best experience with a lawyer!

I had what I thought to be a complicated case for identity theft. When I interviewed him , not only was he very nice and knowledgeable, but he broke it down into simple terms to help me understand what really needed to be done and how it needed to be done ( with out making me feel belittled in any wa...y). He is very diligent in making sure that he has all the facts to best represent you, but also with follow through. We won our case, and he got me the maximum amount allowed!! I am now seeing money back into my pocket!

I'm beyond impressed with Mr. French's knowledge and honesty in more ways than one.

I'm not sure if Mr. French will ever notice this review, but it's the least I could do to thank him for the services he provided to me. He patiently listened to me on the phone for free recently as I discussed 2 situations I was considering initiating civil litigation over. Sana Hamelin, another loca...l attorney, referred me to him. He has a well-deserved reputation for being both knowledgeable and honest. If you need legal advice at all whatsoever, I highly recommend you speak with him. In other words, I fully respect and trust him with such sensitive matters, and I'll forever be grateful for his willingness to help me.

  • 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.
