Posted by Julie | April 11, 2019 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Couldn’t Have Asked For A Better Lawyer!

My case was a wrongful DUI arrest. It was a very traumatic and upsetting process dealing with the DMV and the court. From the moment I reached out to Jim he was kind, patient, and clearly dedicated to helping me. Unlike a lot of lawyers, he always called or emailed when he said he would. He made time... for me when I needed it, and he truly wanted to do what was best for me and my situation. Through the process I always felt like I had a voice and that my concerns were heard and addressed. There were many ups and downs in my case, but I always felt confident that Jim was guiding me towards making the best decisions. I am very grateful that due to Jim there will be no alcohol related charges on my record.

Jim is GREAT !!!

With getting specific on the details of of my DV case , jim was recomemded to me by a lawyer i used in devener in the past ! I was caught up in an ugly mess that had to deal with a real tricky situation and colorados manditory arrest laws. Jim was great he TRULY CARED about me and my situation. He ...wasnt concerned about anything other them helping me. He showed up to my bond hearing after getting a call from my out of state mother ..he got my bond reduced and handed me his card saying is u want to use me for the case call me. I said what do i owe u he said NOTHIING...he had my buisness rite there ! To make a long story short this man is great he wanted me to not take the plea that was given as he believed we would win but i wanted to get out of colorado and back to florida. He renegotiated a great deal for me and i am now ho.e with my family. I knew at the plea hearing he was rite because the DA stated they basically wherent going to spend the money to bring an uncooperative witness from FLA to testify...i should have listened to jim we would have won ...that being saod i am happy as a pig in $#×÷ with what jim was able to get me even though i went against his opinion. If i or anyone i know ever need anything in colorado or anywhere for that matter he will be the man i call. Thank jim most lawyers are only about $ u really care about people its why u will have a very long and successful career. It was a pleaseure doing buisness w you and i thank u for EVERYTHING as does my family VD

friendly, promt, professional, knowledgeable

He helped me with a very short notice case, and went way out of his way to help make the situation better! Always answered his calls and texts and was honest and very helpful. He is very good with his work and knows his stuff. Very professional and knowledgeable and even met us on a Sunday for a r...eview.

Great Lawyer!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jim Little. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case and I would definitely hire him again if I ever needed to. He was very thorough and punctual during the entire process. The court process can be very confusing at times with the way they ...word things. Jim was very good at explaining what was going on in words that made more sense to me. I certainly hope I will not need to hire a lawyer again anytime soon, But if I do I would certainly hire Jim Little again.

Outstanding lawyer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jim Little came highly recommended from everyone I know. He's the best, most professional, punctual, and very reasonably priced. All I did was call him and he took it from there. Jim Little came and met me near where I lived for a consultation. He made my whole unfortunate situation better right from... beginning to the end, which ended in him getting the charges dismissed!!!
