Severance Agreement Negotiation

I highly recommend Jim Abrams for anyone needing legal guidance during employment transitions. He reviewed my severance agreement and provided invaluable advice for negotiations. Thanks to his expertise and support, I was able to successfully negotiate a much-improved agreement. Jim is professional, ...responsive, and truly dedicated to achieving the best outcomes for their clients. I couldn’t be more grateful!

JIM'S PASSION IS GETTING YOU JUSTICE...100%!

Had a complex legal issue which seemed to defy answers with other attorneys. Dr. Abrams skillfully, efficiently and staunchly negotiated a settlement. Very refreshing after others didn't seem comfortable with complexity or with a knowledge level to indicate success. Jim keeps you informed at every ...step. Skills and intellect combined, Jim is a rare find among the ocean of attorneys.

Knowledgeable, honest, and very helpful employment lawyer

Jim was great to work with! He is very honest and no-nonsense, which we very much appreciated. He responded quickly to our very time-sensitive employment needs. He made time for us and provided much needed insight, knowledge, and guidance through a challenging employment situation. He has a lot of wi...sdom to share and a great sense of humor, which was very needed. He even checked in after all was over, to make sure everything was okay.

Highly skilled

I had lost my job after a dedicated 27 years with a company and found myself with no income and a denial of Unemployment benefits. I felt like something was wrong with the system and I should be granted my full benefits. I did not want to attempt to conquer an appeals hearing on my own so reached out... to Jim Abrams as he came highly recommended from a colleague. May I mention he personally answered my phone call and also happened to be after hours but was fully willing to talk to me. Jim was brutally honest with what we were up against and made me feel zero pressure to hire him. Ultimately I knew I wanted to be represented by Jim and given all his experience and track record, he made me feel confident. when all said and done, what I thought would be slim to none on winning the hearing... Jim made it happen! I do not feel it was just "a win", I feel it was a "Slam dunk win". I certainly could not have done this on my own. I give Jim all the credit in the world for what he did for me and thank him a ton! I would HIGHLY recommend hiring Jim without hesitation!!

Superb Attorney

Jim was the best! He helped me through an adversarial proceeding. After two delays with the case, the opposing party withdrew. This is not what I expected from the opposing party. I am sure that they decided that they could not win anything against the superb attorney that Jim is. Jim was very... responsive to any of my inquiries. He has a great sense of humor and always made me feel better, especially when I was down about the case. I would recommend Jim as an attorney to anyone.
