James Abrams

I was very fortunate to find Attorney Jim Abrams through an attorney I sourced on Colorado Bar Association referral site using the search function "labor law" – who said that he knew a specialist just in well versed in developing a simple separation agreement. After sifting through dozens of websites... and what felt like finding a proverbial needle in a haystack, I would Mr. Abrams. My challenge was urgent and required great care, detail and expertise. He was nothing short of that and more. His knowledge of resolving "civil" separation agreements so that one doesn't "burn bridges" is a baffling trick that he does with great ease and a positive disposition. Negotiating the agreement was very painful, as any agreement under an employment separation would expect to be. However, with his wise (and "wise crack") demeanor he gently nudges you back to reality and remind you that the end game is to separate, but do so amicably. It took him less than 2 business days to draft the agreement, with intermittent communication with the other attorney thereafter for another 10 days. What resulted was an agreement that I felt was fair and included additional benefits that would allow me to feel like I had space and breathing room to start fresh. He shed light on my legal rights, specifically those that I was unaware of (i.e. unemployment, healthcare, etc…) and entitled to, and thus included them in the final agreement. On a few occasions, he fought for ethical usage of clauses as the other attorney lacked legally sound paragraphs and clauses that were questionable, ethically. He was able to do all of this while carrying a heavy caseload. However, as many people say, you do not want a bored attorney. A busy attorney will get you results. Don’t get me wrong there were times I was impatient and needed immediate assistance, but he reminded me that I would not expect the same from a doctor or an electrician. I highly recommend Mr. Abrams to help you address challenges as it relates to developing, negotiating and/or advising you on a separation/exit with an employer.

I needed help with an employment issue when I was forced out of my job. Mr. Abrams helped me get a settlement on the monies they owed me and even got rid of my non-compete agreement. He is fast, fair and knowledgeable about how the system works especially unemployment and was able to get my problem... swiftly resolved exceeding my expectations. If there were 10 stars he would have my vote!

I have never worked with a lawyer before and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find someone who truly cared about me and my situation. However, I truly believe it was a blessing that I found Jim. He treats me like I am one of his daughters. So attentive, so detail oriented, and he always goes ...above and beyond to spend time with me and make sure all my questions are answered. I honestly never thought someone like Jim even existed. Every day I thank God that I found him. We have been working together for a couple months now and I have complete confidence in my Lawer, James Abrams. He is truly one of a kind. For example, He will often email me every other day just to check in and see how i'm doing. He will educate me on the legal facts which I love. He will send me links to other articles which explain why my boss is acting in an extremely unprofessional and with misconduct. Jim's knowledge about the law and how to navigate it is very impressive. I love that he will talk to me on the phone for an hour without making me feel rushed. He truly cares about me and I know that even when my case is finally resolved, that we will remain good friends for life. Again, I recommend James Abrams 200% without any hesitation. If any of you out there are still searching, then look no more. This lawyer is practicing because he wants to make our lives better and he does this with love, compassion, kindness, and grace. Thank you Jim for making me feel like part of your family.
