James Ira Devitt

I will not recommend Mr. Devitt, and will not use him again for any matter. Once hired based on the initial meeting, he was unresponsive to many phone and email messages. He was late to our meeting at court prior to appearing before the judge for the first time. It appeared he was not prepared for... my case, since he asked just prior to appearing very basic information that he should have already known. Since the initial court appearance, I have appeared two more times- both without Mr. Devitt. He had the opportunity to join/represent me- but he did not do so. My matter was a first offense, now that its been a year since the conviction, i now realized that i should have just gone through the Public Defenders offce - and saved quite a bit of money.

If it wasn't for this man, I'd be in huge trouble for something totally out of my hands. I came to him when I was wrongfully arrested for battery (in all honesty, it was self defense). Although I was in a hysterical mindset, he helped me get what I needed: justice. He didn't point fingers or beat aro...und the bush- everything was straight forward. He actually put everything in perspective for me and we got through it together. Not once did he leave me hanging. When we got to court, he thoroughly proved to the courtroom that I was a victim and the case was dismissed. I would highly recommend Mr. Devitt. Not only is he professional and honest, but he's also very kind!
