Great Attorney Delivered Beyond My Expectations

My case was complex. Attorney Abrams took the time to understand the complexities of my case and steered my claim to a successful outcome three times greater than I expected. I always felt he was on my side and respectfully answered my questions and addressed my concerns along the way. Instead of let...ting the legal system dictate my case I felt he used his extensive and practical knowledge of the legal system to make my case in a creative and beneficial way - he is a strategist not a technician. He had the strength, conviction and fortitude to represent me and won a major settlement, never settling for less than he felt I deserved.

The BEST attorney I could have asked for

I could not have asked for a better attorney. He has 5 star reviews for a reason and now I know why. Jim is extremely knowledgeable, tactical, and genuinely cares for his client. During my hearing against a former Doctor he got my case reversed and we won. His humor is an added plus, he is a quick th...inker and very witty. He took full reigns in the court room. With his experience and such confidence, no one stood a chance against him. I am beyond pleased and so glad I hired him to represent me. I will always recommend him to everyone.

Jim was a fierce advocate for me as I was at risk of being prosecuted. He took charge of the proceeding and it was a very happy ending because of his effort. He was incredibly generous with his time both preparing me and in the trying of the case.

Wish I would have hired Jim first

I lost my job. I hired one attorney who took an approach to challenging my discharge that was not helpful or successful. I believe that if I had hired Jim first, I wold not have been discharged. Jim is a creative, "out of box" thinker who has no fear of the courtroom or being opposed by an employ...er's large legal department. Through a combination of strategy, discovery of evidence and advocacy, we partnered and were able to cause my former employer to come to the table, settle the case on fair terms and restore my reputation, enabling me to move on. Jim is a first-rate attorney. He will work around the clock for you. It was not uncommon for me to receive emails from him late at night or very early in the morning. I highly recommend him.

The Best

I hired Mr. Abrams in 2003 to represent me with my employer at the time. I spoke with Mr. Abrams on the phone immediately and scheduled consultation. Mr. Abrams is a brilliant, completely knowledgeable and experienced attorney. He knows what is the best path for your specific issue and will guide yo...u correctly, even if litigation is not the best process for your specific case. The best in employment law.
