Highly recommend Jim Abrams

We own a small business and were audited by the department of labor who determined we owed back taxes for unemployment insurance and penalties. We hired Jim Abrams and never looked back. Jim has been nothing short of amazing in his representation of us during our hearing which lasted several days. Th...is case endangered our business , family and livelihoods. At the conclusion of the case , the government's auditor stated that he had never faced anyone as good as Jim. We won that case and it was an incredible relief. I can recommend no one better than Jim Abrams.

Excellent lawyer

Jim Abrams did an excellent job of representing me in a discharge without cause hearing before the CDLE and we are awaiting the decision of the hearing officer. He is well-versed in employment/labor law, is quick on his feet and knows how to utilize the testimony of the opposing side to prove our ca...se. In addition, Jim's great sense of humor while prepping me for the hearing really helped me to relax. Bravo Zulu! Thanks Jim!

Very knowledgeable; great guidance; scalable support

Jim provided outstanding counsel, guidance and support when I was terminated. He clearly has extensive expertise in employment law and provided the right level of advice to help me fight for my rights and just the right amount of support for the situation. He was there for me every step of the way,... but at the same time I felt he was very aware that I needed to be careful with how much I was spending for legal advice.

We won!

Mr Abrams helped me with a litigation and we were rewarded with an outcome in my favor. He is extremely knowledgeable in the area of law I needed, helped me prepare for the hearing by giving me some excellent concise advice and was very thorough with his questioning. Although you can never predict ...what the outcome may be it was well worth the money just to see Mr Abrams in action and I felt that I had the best representation possible.

Unemployment Appeal Case

James Abrams, Ph.D., J.D. represented me in an unemployment appeal case. Mr. Abrams expertise surpassed my expectations by winning my contested unemployment appeal case. I would highly recommend him to represent anyone in need of excellent representation. He was a pleasure to work with and a very ...caring and understanding person. I could have never won my case without him. Thank You Jim for the outcome as they would have eating me alive without your vast knowledge.
