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!

Excellent Assistance

I contacted Mr. Abrams in January to help me with an appeal case against my previous employer. I had already won the first appeal and my previous employer appealed that decision. I hired Mr. Abrams to handle this appeal and he was excellent. He took the information provided and set up the brief for m...e within a week. He submitted the brief in a timely manner and in a week, I had a decision on the appeal. The ruling was in my favor again and I am ever so thankful for a job well done..

5 Star Service

I have been a client for 4 years having issues at my place of employment regarding harassment, hostile work environment, discrimination regarding medical issues among other things. James listened to my issues in 2012 and it calmed down after a stern letter to the Company from him. When the issues r...eturned at an alarming rate, I contacted James because he knew the history and I knew I could trust him. It has been 2 years since my termination and we are in the appeal process. James has continued to handle my case with care and concern. I was impressed with him in regards to how he prepared my case, consulting with me every step of the way. He respected my condition and the after effects of chemo explaining everything to me in terms I understood. James is not afraid to stand up for what is right and he has always done the right thing by me. He is not intimidated by anyone in the system. He is someone I have trusted for 4 years. I do not know how my case will turn out, but I will be forever thankful to James. His diligence, integrity, knowledge of the law, and an attitude to do the right thing by his client makes him the best person to have next to you in a hearing. Donna

Helped Me Win Unemployment Claim

When I was devastated and at a loss of what to do, Jim helped me to win my unemployment claim which was previously denied by a former employer. He was reassuring and helped guide me though the appeal process with confidence. He was honest, upfront, ans assertive in his tactics. I am glad to have h...ad Jim to help me fight the injustice which I fell prey to from my former employer.

Super Attorney!!

Jim Abrams extended me the courtesy of preparing an appeal for my case. He did this on a Sunday and he did not charge me. He always answered his phone on weekends, which I think is unheard of this day and age. He followed through with what he said he would do and then some. I recommend Jim to any...one that needs someone that Gets the Job Done and is Honest, without taking all your money!!!
