James Abrams

I found myself needing legal representation for an unexpected unemployment appeals hearing. My former employer was denying my claim to receive benefits. I came across Mr. Abrams name on the internet, his credentials and experience impressed me. After meeting with him in person to discuss the detai...ls of my case, I was suddenly terminated after 23 years for making a mistake. Fellow employees were not terminated after their errors were caught and corrected. It is my belief that I was terminated under the veil of downsizing after my new manager was given access to information about personnel salaries. Mr. Abrams contested their points professionally and passionately and I am happy to report that the appeals judge ruled in my favor. Mr. Abrams is a personable and experienced lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone requiring legal counsel and representation.

In 2010 I made the unfortunate decision to purchase a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle from a dealership in Boulder. Over the course of eighteen months my CPO vehicle malfunctioned mechanically and electrically over a dozen times resulting in anxiety about my safety while driving this vehicle, as well as ...inconveniencing both my personal and professional life and schedule. All be it long overdue, the day finally came when I came to the conclusion that there was something inherently wrong with this vehicle, something that could not be fixed. The difficult part came trying to convince the dealership of the same. After numerous phone calls that went unreturned and multiple messages left unresponded to from the Service Manager at the dealership, the salesman I purchased the car from, and even the owner of the dealership I finally decided I needed the help of a professional. Mr. Abrams was recommended to me by my business associate who has worked with him on multiple employment and labor issues with great satisfaction. From my first meeting with Mr. Abrams I knew that my issue with the dealership would quickly become a non-issue. Armed with the stack of service notes on my vehicle as well as a statement from myself Mr. Abrams wrote an eight page letter that was sent not only to the Service Manager, the owner of the dealership, the State of Colorado Department of Revenue Automobile Division, the head of BMW North America, but also the head of BMW Germany. This letter was expertly written and came to multiple, logical conclusions regarding this CPO vehicle that there was nothing that could be said by them against his arguments. Within two weeks from the letter being sent out I had the attention of the State of Colorado Department of Revenue as well as the apologies of the Service Manager and the owner, but more importantly I had a swift and very acceptable resolution to my problem, which was the complete repurchase of this vehicle from myself by BMW North America. Mr. Abrams was solely responsible for lifting the financial and emotional burden this vehicle had on my life. I can call myself one of the many people that asks themselves, "why did I wait so long to call a lawyer?" I will not make that mistake again. Mr. Abrams is a competent and caring professional. I am very glad to have on the list of people I can call should I find myself in a bind. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

For serious personnel issues, Mr. Abrams stays completely on point. He is thorough, detailed and uses objective analysis to define the best approach. He is mature and knowledgeable which keeps the client from making poor decisions. He outlines choices and their ramifications. He stays the course ...with a steady hand. When he needs to be aggressive, he does it. He also is able to measure his actions against the particular circumstances present in these cases. He represents his clients fiercely and fairly. He gets the job done sometimes painlessly. A true warrior brain trust.

Dr. Abrams did not beat around the bush. He was forthwright, tenacious, and unswayable! He came out with professional guns blazing and won my unemployment for me! He was fun to watch, you could see his "wheels" engaging while he found the correct questions to ask. Though I was scared to death, he too...k charge and made all well! I recommend anyone who needs GREAT representation to contact Dr. Abrams! He is my hero, I would have lost my house if it weren't for him!!!!

Jim Abrams is a credit to his profession. Clearly an advocate for righting wrong, he has an outstanding understanding of the law combined with a business acumen that allows him to formulate a strategy that brings legal situations to closure in a manner that is efficient in terms of time, expense and ...with total concern for the client. Jim is very easy to work with and I would highly recommend him to friends and associates.
