Great guy. Really cares about his clients.
Jim was really helpful, patient and organized when it came to working my case. He went over all the details and made sure I understood what was going on the entire time. He wanted the best outcome for me and really showed that he cared about my future. We won the case.

we got the best conflict resolution we could possibly get.
James spent a lot of time on our case. He tried to understand very detail of our case and found the best possible solution for our dispute. We recommend his service and will hire him again if needed.
"I have had Jim as an opposing counsel on several wage and hour cases. He is a fair and zealous advocate for his clients and is knowledgeable about the law. I've referred a number of potential clients to Jim and have received positive feedback regarding his abilities. The fact that he speaks Spanish is a definite asset to his practice."
"I endorse this lawyer. I represented several employers in cases brought by Mr. Dal Bon, and have found him to be a zealous and knowledgeable advocate for his clients. I can recommend James for his ablilty, vigilence and demeanor, as well as his ability to cut through to the core of a case to speed recovery for his clients. He also is well respected in the legal community and I am proud to view James as a professional colleague."
"I endorse this lawyer. James is well known in the legal community as an effective advocate for his clients."
