This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Very helpful

James helped me and my family make the best plan that fit our current situation and what we felt most comfortable doing. He facilitated the whole process for estate planning in an assuring and thorough manner, and was very easy to reach whenever we had questions about any part of the process. He also... made sure to gather all the necessary information we needed to make informed decisions at every step. James and his staff were overall really great to work with!

Great Experience

Mr. Long did a Transfer of Death Deed for us. He explained it all to us in consultation. We hired him and he provided us with exactly what we needed. A very comfortable but professional experience.

Excellent advise

James gave me more information, then the other attorney's that I consulted. The others did not respond. Lives too far from the case

Trustworthy and Reliable.

James helped our family obtain peace of mind by helping us with estate planning and various other items that helped secure our future. He was always available and willing to explain things so that we understood the process. Definitely would recommend.

Wonderful Estate lawyer

I highly recommend this attorney and law firm. Great legal advice, very professional and educated. He has helped my husband and I in the right direction with being new trustees. I am very pleased with his business. He has directed us in making decisions about our assets and what our legal rights are ...with our family trust.

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.
