Wonderful Encounter!!!!!

I sought counsel from Jim Abrams for an employment problem. I must say that I hesitated based on one review amongst dozens of exceptional ones. I asked Mr. Abrams about this and he explained that, while he has not identified the individual trying to hurt him, there are attorneys who have experienced ...similar attacks after declining a case or advising a potential client that their case is not one of interest to the attorney. Mr. Abrams explained that while he had not confirmed the identity of the author, he did have one potential client that he recently declined to represent. That client was intoxicated when he spoke to Mr. Abrams. There were other attributes concerning that person which he could not share. As for my experience, it was an 11 on a 10 scale. I followed his advice and as a result, am transitioning from a difficult employer to a place where I know I will be happy and able to sleep at night with a separation from my last employment that was not unpleasant.. I am grateful that I found Jim Abrams. And, Mr. Abrams did not request that I write this review. I asked him if could before sharing my experience.

I was in danger of losing my employment with a law enforcement agency. I hired Jim to help me. It would have been a financial disaster had I lost my job. Jim charged me very little. He initially met with me and later prepared me for the hearing, came to the hearing location with me [and took charge i...n the hearing] and stopped the agency from firing me. He was committed to my welfare. A wonderful outcome for me. I don't know if it was luck or some greater power but I couldn't be happier. My recommendation: Hire Jim!

An absolute pleasure to work with James L. Abrams.....

We chose to work with James L. Abrams in January of 2018 in a labor dispute with a Fortune 500 Company over a number of OSHA and EEOC discrimination violations. We found Jim's counsel to be very assuring and we felt professionally guided as we went through the legal process towards mediation. I am ha...ppy to report that we settled with a top-tier national employment law firm at the end of the process. The settlement amount was many times the average amount of either EEOC or OSHA settlements. We were absolutely thrilled with the outcome. A huge thank you to Jim Abrams.
