Great coaching, got me a better severance agreement

Jim was easy to chat with, and he understood employment law pretty well. He coached me through what negotiation looks like in cases like these, and he was well worth his fee relative to what I got from negotiating the terms of my severance agreement with my former employer.

Worth Your Money

I highly recommend Mr. Abrams. The whole unemployment process is so confusing and stressful, having someone with his experience will really make a difference. He helped me win my appeal, I can’t thank him enough. As a single mother every penny counts, investing in someone like Mr. Abrams is worth it!...!!! If I could give him 10 stars I would!!!

Trust Jim's Abrams expertise and experience!

After consulting other lawyers, I found some incredibly expensive just for consultation and others said it wasn't worth pursuing in a 'right to work state'. One lawyer I spoke with told me the odds were strongly in the employers favor. I was ready to take the loss until a friend suggested Jim Abrams.... Jim listened carefully, understood the facts, and accepted the case for a flat fee. Through his extensive experience, expertise, knowledge, and guidance, we won the appeal! Along with my friend who thankfully suggested him, we highly recommend consulting Jim Abrams, especially when other lawyers say it can't be won.

Excellent lawyer & upstanding gentleman! I highly recommend him.

Jim is an outstanding person and professional. He is a very accomplished lawyer and a hardworking person who helped me through a complex multi-state unemployment benefits issue with the state of Colorado. His in-depth legal knowledge and savvy helped me tremendously. He guided me through the process ...of appealing three redeterminations, and the hearings that followed. He was upfront and honest about costs, responsive about any questions that I had, and did a great job helping me to prepare for my hearings. We were successful in appealing all three of my redeterminations! I wouldn't have been able to do it without Jim! I am so grateful to him for his hard work, and straight forward business style. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for legal aid in labor and employment law.

Healthcare Provider

Mr. Abrams was recently consulted regarding a variety of medical and legal issues. He was overly generous with his time and did not charge me for his time. I would give him 6 stars if I could!
