When I needed legal counsel, friends and acquaintances referred me to Jim, calling him "the best". I learned what they meant as I went through the legal process with a knowledgable advocate who understood the legal system and practical aspects of my situation in and out. He knows the lawyers and ju...dges in the system and has years of experience on both sides of criminal law cases. He took time to carefully prepare and present my case. What I saw as I watched others going through experiences similar to mine is that having a lawyer who knows your case and the system, and cares about your case, makes a huge difference.
