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.

Jim really came through for me

He was very responsive with call backs. And he started my work on short notice and fit me in to his already full schedule. His work was great and his advice was very valuable. I highly recommend Jim Abrams.

The help I needed when I needed it most

I am a level 10 Google Local Guide with reviews all over the world. I don’t give my reviews out lightly. This guy is a life saver. Not only did he see me immediately when I needed emergency legal advice, but he put together a comprehensive and compelling legal document to send to my employer by th...e time my first phone call was done. Very happy with the service I received here, and it came at a very reasonable price. Could not have asked for anything better.

Highly recommend

I had an issue with a former employer and Jim Abrams has been there for me like a rock. I know I can always call Jim for advice and he never turns me away. Jim is extremely intelligent and very knowledgeable in the legal field. I have been turned away by lawyers many times who are too busy for my ca...se. Jim has never turned me away and will always return my calls. If you are looking for someone who cares about you more than a pay check call Jim I highly recommend him as an Attorney. Thank you Jim for being in my corner and believing in me always.
