Mr. Berg is a outstanding Attorny

Mr Berg was appointed to my case for guardianship of my disabled daughter. The same day Mr. Berg made time to visit my home and meet my daughter. He handled the case very profesionally and in a timely manor. All of the court requirements where filed on time and correct. Having Mr. Berg on the case ma...de it very easy for me, little stress and a true profesional taking care of my issues. I would strongly recommend Mr. Berg for all cases.

David Lousteau

General practice lawyer | Dec 09

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I am fortunate to have observed Jim's work close-up many times. He is highly intelligent and is able to think "out-of-the-box." This is a powerful combination for a lawyer. His extensive knowledge of the law would be the envy of most lawyers. As a legal advisor, Jim is trustworthy, straight-forward and gives well-reasoned advice. When the case calls for it, you will find him to be an aggressive, "take no prisoners," litigator. I frequently refer clients to Jim that have concerns outside my practice area."

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
