The attorney you need
James took over my case after a few other attorneys didn't help me much. James had ongoing support for my questions and concerns and gave great advice. I would recommend James to anyone seeking competent legal counsel. James is honest, personable, and will advocate for you when you need him most.

"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."
