About James
Biography
The Law Offices of James J. Salmons is a boutique law firm offering personalized service, unwavering support, and an attention to detail that is unmatched. Many say it, we show it.
I'm a fairly new attorney, just a few years under my belt. But "this ain't my first rodeo" and the life experiences I have endured, I believe I can confidently say, few can match. From these life experiences and my time practicing law, we cultivate a "client experience" focused on prompt responsiveness, zealous advocacy, and a dedication to preserving the rights of our clients!

Thankful for the positive remarks
James had some sound advice to give and was extremely supprtive with his kid words. Through a rough few months battling in court and our own doubt, those positive things did not fall on deaf ears! THANK you so very much.

Perfect Lawyer!
I highly recommend James to be your lawyer. He is genuine and straightforward, which is exactly what I was looking for. I have an upcoming court case, and was completely overwhelmed. He made me feel at ease and have a clear understanding of what I needed to do, thank you James!

Very Passionate About Winning
I would recommend him, he’s relentless and will do everything legally to win for you. He’s professional but also kind and generous. He understands that it’s not just about money it’s about the psychology of the matter. I was going through a rough time with my legal adventure but Salmons was the light...

Greatest representation!
James has always been straight forward. I was lost and in a overwhelming court battle. James has gone above and beyond for me and always had my best interest in mind. Highly recommended for all your legal needs.

Sample of Legal Cases
Grandparent Visitation
I lost. The Constitutional presumptions of fit parents, combined with the parents joining in opposition, was apparently sufficient to convince the Judge that visitation was not in the child's best interest.
