Criminal for an adult child
I would highly recommend James as an attorney. He walked us through many steps as we had never been through anything like this case before. He always answered our many questions and was reasonably priced on top of that. A very pleasant attorney to work with.

Team Player
Most attorneys and I know many are really busy and not personable. He is not only professional but also takes suggestions amd considers alternatives to the standard norm. I Highly recommend he and his team.
