Trusted, strategic and effective attorney.

James handled my divorce case effectively and I rely on him for strategic counseling even when I am in pro per. My case was not as complicated and James was always knowledgeable around the strategies and solutions. In times where people may feel they can handle and file their own divorce case, it is ...wise to consult and work with an experienced and efficient attorney. James was definitely that attorney I needed by my side. I would recommend James to handle every scale of the matters, from uncomplicated to complicated matters. Knowing that James is available and will stand by my side when I need advice is an incredible feeling.

Great Experience

I was referred by a friend who had also had a great experience working with him. I had a rather difficult divorce w/ custody issues and had already had an iffy experience with my previous attorney. It was all fairly involved, and James made me feel at ease, explained things/terms I did not understand..., and took control of my case. He worked effectively with my ex's attorney and was able to efficiently handle issues that had been left unresolved by my previous attorney. He made a stressful time in my life less difficult. Looking at the previous review- I have to say it looks completely bogus. Their experience is totally unlike what I experienced. James was professional throughout the duration of my case and I would recommend him in the future.
