HIRE THIS ATTORNEY! You won’t regret it!

James helped me out big-time on a DUI charge which was complete BS to begin with. I was a wreck. James explained everything. Whenever I called or texted him, he was nearly always available, or he got back to me quickly. I would recommend him 100%, especially if you didn’t even break the law in the ...first place. James took what seemed to me to be a hopeless situation, worked hard, and took good care of me. Hire this guy

Really Helpful Lawyer

I got charged with a domestic violence case earlier this year, even though I was the victim. I was really scared because I had never been arrested before or even accused of any crime, not even a traffic ticket. I felt really embarrassed and didn't know what to do or who to call. My cousin recommended... James Siegrist to me. He was easy to talk to, and really listened to me. He took care of everything, and I got my life back. I highly recommend him and have already referred other people.

The Best DUI representation

I was arrested for a DUI, and called James after receiving dozens of letters from lawyers. James is a great lawyer who took the time to ask me questions about every detail of my case. His knowledge of the law and procedure really gave me the peace of mind that I was looking for. I felt that I was b...eing represented by the best. James really reduced the stress of this terrible experience. He was truly very competent and took great care of me. I put my faith, money, and trust in him to defend me and I don’t regret it at all.

Great Results

James was an absolute amazing lawyer for me. He explained all of my options and told me that I had a great case with good odds of a dismissal. He was right! My case was dismissed. I can’t guarantee that will happen with your case, but I was really happy. I highly recommend him.

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.
