Exellent representation!!!
Jim helped me pursue a cease and desist case with another band in Philadelphia who was using our name. Jim was very prompt and clear in communicating with me regarding the progress and final outcome of the case. Which we won!
Response from James BonessApril 27, 2016
I am so glad I could help you and your band out. I really enjoyed doing this work for you and I am just as pleased with the outcome. Look forward to working with you in the future!

I was referred to Mr. Boness from a close friend and I quickly learned why. He is very effective and knowledgeable. He helped me to get my case dismissed and I will be referring Jim to everyone I know that may need a good, effective attorney.

Quality Care
Jim Boness was a great attorney. I am so glad I went with him to help me with my case. He took me on three days before my first court appearance and was proactive right away. He was upfront and honest with me regarding the reality of my case and did everything he could to get me what even the judge acknowledged was a great deal. Excellent service. I highly recommend Jim Boness.

A terrible situation made bearable and ending with a smile and relief!
When I first contacted this law office, I truly expected it to be the same routine. However it was the exact opposite! My case was handled very personally and I truly felt like I was his only client while we were meeting or at court! Not only did he bring me a great outcome, he brought me and my family peace of mind during our ordeal, which is priceless! I want to thank Mr. Boness and his staff! You won't find this service anywhere else!

Response from James BonessFebruary 26, 2016
It certainly helps to put the client at ease when the client can talk with his/her attorney when he/she needs to. This is why we communicate in many different ways with our clients, because one size does not fit all. Thank you for your review.
