James Abrams

I sought counsel from Jim Abrams for an employment problem. I must say that I hesitated based on one review amongst dozens of exceptional ones. I asked Mr. Abrams about this and he explained that, while he has not identified the individual trying to hurt him, there are attorneys who have experienced ...similar attacks after declining a case or advising a potential client that their case is not one of interest to the attorney. Mr. Abrams explained that while he had not confirmed the identity of the author, he did have one potential client that he recently declined to represent. That client was intoxicated when he spoke to Mr. Abrams. There were other attributes concerning that person which he could not share. As for my experience, it was an 11 on a 10 scale. I followed his advice and as a result, am transitioning from a difficult employer to a place where I know I will be happy and able to sleep at night with a separation from my last employment that was not unpleasant.. I am grateful that I found Jim Abrams. And, Mr. Abrams did not request that I write this review. I asked him if could before sharing my experience.

Jim, was the consummate professional. He helped me negotiate a separation agreement which worked for me and my employer. He coached me and guided me on a path which averted legal action. My employer knew that I had an attorney because of the tone and expertise reflected in the documents. His knowled...ge and background is powerful. His integrity is reflected in all that he does. He gave excellent counsel and was interested in my case.

I am pleased to unconditionally recommend Jim Abrams. He went above and beyond to help me address a workplace bullying situation of which I was the target. Jim also reduced his fee to assure I did not interact with my employer without counsel. He cares about his clients.  He's  a gifted communicat...or and assisted me with a written submission that powerfully conveyed my position to my employer. I'd never hesitate to contact him again for any legal assistance I might need.

I have been a client for 4 years having issues at my place of employment regarding harassment, hostile work environment, discrimination regarding medical issues among other things. James listened to my issues in 2012 and it calmed down after a stern letter to the Company from him. When the issues r...eturned at an alarming rate, I contacted James because he knew the history and I knew I could trust him. It has been 2 years since my termination and we are in the appeal process. James has continued to handle my case with care and concern. I was impressed with him in regards to how he prepared my case, consulting with me every step of the way. He respected my condition and the after effects of chemo explaining everything to me in terms I understood. James is not afraid to stand up for what is right and he has always done the right thing by me. He is not intimidated by anyone in the system. He is someone I have trusted for 4 years. I do not know how my case will turn out, but I will be forever thankful to James. His diligence, integrity, knowledge of the law, and an attitude to do the right thing by his client makes him the best person to have next to you in a hearing. Donna
