Rating Jim Morris

Jim Morris was, and I am sure is, a wonderful person, professional trial lawyer, with the ability to communicate information to the lay person, which in our case, was done perfectly. Regarding his abilities as a lawyer in our trial, which was conducted as a bell weather case, he excelled against ver...y long odds, but his communication skills won over a jury and we received victory. I cannot suggest enough that anyone in Jim's care, will be represented by a sensitive, intelligent, and most important, a gifted attorney. Steve and Merle Simon

"Jim Morris is a fine lawyer and a stand-up guy! In product liability and mass tort, there really aren't many better attorneys around. If you have an individual case or need some help handling a portfolio, Jim Morris should be at the top of your list."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
