"James is the epitome of an excellent trial lawyer: highest integrity, very experienced, dedicated to getting the best result for clients, and respected by everyone that knows him. As a fellow trial attorney, I have absolute trust and confidence in James, and I highly recommend him to anyone that wants to hire the best."
"James is a thoughtful, intelligent, and dedicated advocate for his clients. His combination of language skills and litigation epxertise make him uniquely qualified to handle difficult cases in a diverse place like Hawaii."
"James is a great guy and a terrific attorney. We met at the National College for DUI Defense at Harvard Law School. DUI is a constantly changing and developing area of law. It's important to be BOTH a great trial lawyer and somebody who understands the complicated science in a DUI case. James is the consummate student in his chosen field and I would heartily recommend him to anybody facing a serious DUI charge."
"I endorse this lawyer. James and I are fellow members of the National College of DUI Defense (NCDD). To be a member you must meet high standards and keep current with DUI laws. James is also a two time graduate of the NCDD Summer Session program."
