Jim Abrams Recommendation

I was the President of a Human Resources Company and I was searching for an attorney to help with a labor issue. I recently had a conversation with a friend who owned a large oil and gas company about a similar issue he just completed. I asked him to recommend his attorney and instead he said "I wish... I had the guy on the other side. He destroyed our attorney team. Here's his number." I then engaged Jim Abrams and had a very successful outcome. That was 6 years ago and I have used Jim's services multiple times since then all with similar results. When you have a dispute, especially in a David vs Goliath situation, you want an attorney who is experienced and knowledgeable but is also willing to go for the jugular when needed. Jim is just that - I have seen the velvet hammer as well as the sledgehammer and I highly recommend his services.

Very responsive employment attorney

Jim helped me with a complex employment issue and resolved it within 90 days. His techniques to move a matter forward without having to file a lawsuit are impressive. Jim returns phone calls and e-mails very quickly and is an expert in his field.

Speech-Language Pathologist

Mr. Abrams has been a fantastic lawyer throughout the course of my lawsuit. He is well versed in the legal system, the legal community and was professional throughout one of the most tense seasons of my life. Having been terminated by previous employer a year ago, Mr. Abrams demonstrates he is a true... believer in what it means to fight for justice and I am forever indebted to him.

Experience and Proffesionalism

Mr. Abrams helped me to resolve an incident, that happend to me at work place. You will get a proffesional advice and consultation throughout the whole investigation process. I was able to communicate with him daily, when I need it, he was alway avalable for me. He was able to explain on the "peopl...e-freindly" language all Colorado laws, he make me feel comfortable. He was able to write a statment letter to my boss. I will deffenetly recomend him. If you hired him, I garantee, that you going to WIN your case.

Beyond Extraordinary!!

​I have worked with and for many attorneys over a 23-year period. I did not think I'd need to utilize one for myself - but I did. I was so fortunate to meet Jim Abrams. There's no attorney who is as selfless as this man. I worked with him on two fixed-fee matters that went far beyond what any attorne...y with whom I've worked would do. I know he made no money given how these two matters expanded from minor disputes into major actions. Jim did not complain or do anything other than to serve me honorably. I cannot say enough about his work on my behalf, all successful.
