Definitely Recommend!

James was an excellent attorney. He was very knowledgeable, and was able to explain everything to me in a way I could understand what was happening. He was always available to speak if I needed to, even outside of our meetings. Jim was very professional. I am extremely glad I hired him to represent m...e. I will be forever grateful to him!

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Expedient and Efficient

Met with Mr. Dickenson after consulting with several other attorneys. He laid out a plan of action, a strategy, and quickly followed through. Price was reasonable, and results were perfect. Would send family and friends to him, you could do a lot worse.

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.
