Jim Abrams exceeds expectations!

The guy was unbelievable. My trial was right out of Boston Legal. He made​ ​my employer and its witnesses wish​ ​they had not gotten out of bed that morning. Way beyond my expectations given the fact that the opposition had multiple witnesses who made up the whole story. They were not so smug after... Jim cross-examined them. They'll think twice before tangling with him again.

Highly Recommended

I chose Jim to represent me in a case of unresolved work place harassment. He did a tremendous job at relaying my concerns and resolving the issues. He kept me informed on the current issues of the case, and guided me through processes. He provided me with valuable information on how to handle situat...ions when he could not be present, and he was very punctual in regards to returning phone calls and emails. I would recommend Jim to anyone seeking to resolve issues with a positive outcome. He is very knowledgeable about employment laws and his experience in the past with many different organizations proves his ability to comprehend each case and provide an honest opinion on the state of the matter. On a final note, he takes the time to explain the pros and cons of litigation and really seeks to understand your knowledge base and expectations. He seems to listen and accept your input, but he also ensures that you understand the costs and expenses, both monetary and emotional that litigation may bring upon you. Jim deserves 10/5 stars and I can most certainly say I am very satisfied with the services Jim provided.

Amazing, Fearless Attorney

I have been working with Jim Abrams on my case for 3 years. It was filed in the United States district court and was just settled. He's stuck by me throughout this ordeal. I could never have done it without him! His knowledge of the facts and the law , plus a masterful strategy against a huge Law Fir...m allow the case to be resolved they verbally. I strongly appreciate everything he has done for me.

Responsive, Knowledgable, Friendly and a Winner!

First of all, Jim is very responsive. When I first emailed him he got back to me very promptly. We had an initial phone chat and he listened to my case, thoroughly explained his charges and how he believe the case would play out. I paid 1/2 for a in-depth consult and the other 1/2 for his represent...ation in my case. We won, and in hindsight there was never a question that we wouldn't win. Jim prepped me thoroughly on what to say and when to stay silent. I would recommend him highly!!! (and I have not always had a terrific experience with legal council(

Hire this professional!

From the first time I called Jim Abrams, he was warm, encouraging, intelligent, unflappable, and willing to drop everything to support me, even on a holiday weekend. If you want an ethical, honest, hard-working representative who puts your needs first, call Jim Abrams. I have already recommended him ...widely to my colleagues and friends. Jim also offers a bit of levity and humor, which is often needed during what can be stressful times involving litigation.
