James Abrams

Jim Abrams is extremely knowledgeable about employment law and can quickly get to the key issues in a situation. He is highly creative in formulating strategies and gives you practical and effective ideas for how to deal with problems that have legal implications. He also is excellent at coaching you... on the "people-side" of employment situations and helps you understand the important legal principles to stand on. Jim's insightful strategies have helped me reduce the impact of organizational errors caused by employees. He is generous with this time, follows-up to see how it's going, and is always a pleasure to work with.

After consulting other lawyers, I found some incredibly expensive just for consultation and others said it wasn't worth pursuing in a 'right to work state'. One lawyer I spoke with told me the odds were strongly in the employers favor. I was ready to take the loss until a friend suggested Jim Abrams.... Jim listened carefully, understood the facts, and accepted the case for a flat fee. Through his extensive experience, expertise, knowledge, and guidance, we won the appeal! Along with my friend who thankfully suggested him, we highly recommend consulting Jim Abrams, especially when other lawyers say it can't be won.

Jim is great from start to finish! He took what was a very scary and unknown situation, and made it calm. He provided excellent, ongoing consultation throughout the process and was clear about next steps. He always made himself available as well. He was diligent in his negotiations and concluded ...my legal matter expeditiously. I would refer anyone with a labor dispute to consult with and hire Jim - he is truly one of a kind and the best at what he does!

Jim is an outstanding person and professional. He is a very accomplished lawyer and a hardworking person who helped me through a complex multi-state unemployment benefits issue with the state of Colorado. His in-depth legal knowledge and savvy helped me tremendously. He guided me through the process ...of appealing three redeterminations, and the hearings that followed. He was upfront and honest about costs, responsive about any questions that I had, and did a great job helping me to prepare for my hearings. We were successful in appealing all three of my redeterminations! I wouldn't have been able to do it without Jim! I am so grateful to him for his hard work, and straight forward business style. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for legal aid in labor and employment law.
