Posted by anonymous | July 18, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Civil Rights

A True Professional. Words Do No Justice.

Mr. Abrams came to our family's aid one Saturday evening. We were experiencing serious civil rights violations from a local organisation, and didn't know where to turn. Mr. Abrams contacted us quickly and spoke with us the next day. He gave us great advice and pointed us into the right direction on h...ow to proceed. Mr. Abrams listened diligently, with compassion and interest, and reassured us that this outrage would be rectified. We did our homework, Mr. Abrams did his, and he delivered the results that we were hoping. I am proud to have met Mr. Abrams, as he has brought our family back together. All I can say is Thank You and, again, words do no justice to express the gratitude that we have for "Jim."

A Great Attorney

He won my hearing against the odds.I was very happy with the end results.He was very creative, tenacious, extraordinarily generous with his time; he was there when I needed him; even late at night and over the weekends when I had questions. Thank you for a job well done!

I could not have done it without Jim

I was a participant in a hearing in which I was unsuccessful. Jim appealed the decision and the appellate tribunal reversed the decision remanding it for the judge to rewrite the first opinion in accordance with the appellate opinion. I was then successful! He is a wealth of knowledge! Thank you Ji...m!

Transition planning - helping me get fair treatment from my employer

Jim, was the consummate professional. He helped me negotiate a separation agreement which worked for me and my employer. He coached me and guided me on a path which averted legal action. My employer knew that I had an attorney because of the tone and expertise reflected in the documents. His knowled...ge and background is powerful. His integrity is reflected in all that he does. He gave excellent counsel and was interested in my case.

Posted by James | May 28, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

The best in his profession

I hired Jim in Abrams back January to handle what I felt was a wrongful termination. Despite my best efforts, I was sabotaging my own case, Jim re-centered me and kept matters on track. Frankly, you won't find anyone with the broad experience and strategies used by this attorney. We were involved... with the Company and two separate agencies in a highly regulated industry. I had a better than expected outcome financially and had my record corrected to assist me in moving forward. To be honest, I’ll miss Jim as we were able to share a laugh or two over the past 4 months. If you need a smart and experienced attorney, hire Jim Abrams, you won’t be disappointed.
