Awesome Abrams!

I was referred to Jim Abrams by a national defense firm to address a number of legal issues. I saw Jim after an unsuccessful encounter with another lawyer and after being told by other large firms that my case, while strong, would be time consuming and without a very large retainer, they had no inter...est in representing me. And even with a retainer, they asked for a large portion of the settlement at conclusion. I was impressed with Mr. Abrams background and experience after his lengthy experience with the Office of the Solicitor, Rockwell International and Texaco - and he did not disappoint. My case was complex, intricate and ongoing for several years. We faced constant twists and turns and dealt with individuals whose thought processes were convoluted, devious and calculating. It required much work on his behalf and some complex legal maneuvering in court. This case continued over a period of years and Jim was always there for me. He was bright, knowledgeable and well-informed in all his dealings with me, the courts and the opposing party. His guidance and direction was invaluable throughout the entire process. He was in complete control and managed the case like the true professional that he is. This case would have resulted in personal, professional and financial devastation to me had it not been for Jim. Jim was not only fair with his fees but he saved me a substantial amount of money by him taking the steps that he did and handling the case in the manner that he did. I faced a case against a very large state university and won as a result of Jim’s legal expertise and savvy. His shrewdness, confidence and astuteness, makes him one of the best in the legal industry. His advice was spot on every step of the way. He was communicative, clear in his expectations and simply outstanding during every aspect of my case. He saved me from a situation that could have been truly devastating to my future. Being a legal professional myself with over six years experience working for a top rated law school, I am surrounded by members of the legal community at all levels every day. I can say without hesitation that there is simply no one better, brighter, or more amazing than Jim Abrams. While I hope to never have to partake of his services again, should I have reason, Jim will be the first person that I call. He is my attorney for life.

Great attorney to work with - If you want the best, Jim Abrams is the answer!

My husband and I turned to Holland Hart, a major law firm, to identify the best attorney to address a complex legal issue. We were referred Jim Abrams. Jim represented us for many months. He proposed a strategy upon which we proceeded to a highly successful conclusion. Jim was the attorney who could ...focus his energies on our needs and retain a variety of facts and applicable laws to lead us to the result we were seeking. We would utilize his services again without hesitation. Jim was, by far, the most thorough and dedicated individual for which we could have hoped. We would recommend him again to anyone.
