Unemployment Appeal Case

James Abrams, Ph.D., J.D. represented me in an unemployment appeal case. Mr. Abrams expertise surpassed my expectations by winning my contested unemployment appeal case. I would highly recommend him to represent anyone in need of excellent representation. He was a pleasure to work with and a very ...caring and understanding person. I could have never won my case without him. Thank You Jim for the outcome as they would have eating me alive without your vast knowledge.

A lawyer who cares about treatment of employees.

Jim helped me win a contested hearing. I had many odds stacked against me but Jim knew just what to say. He is very knowledgeable, experienced, and cares about helping his clients. I would highly recommend Jim Abrams to everyone!

Great Lawyer.

I believe that he is a very qualified lawyer and I received the best representation. He understood the stress I was going through and was always available to answer any questions that I had. He is not only knowledgeable but also compassionate. I thank God that I found him.

AMAZING!! The best decisioin I've made throughout this ordeal!

I retained Jim after other attorneys advised me my case was hopeless. We had a tough, lengthy hearing against my former employer. I honestly did not think we could win. I was extremely nervous about the process until I met with Jim. Not only did he put me at ease the first time we met, but I was amaz...ed how Jim took charge of the proceeding and we ultimately prevailed. His command of the courtroom was obvious and the judge was very deferential to Jim. The employer knew it was in trouble as soon as Jim started talking. It was all over about a quarter of the way into the hearing. The strategy Jim decided upon was followed perfectly.

Experience and knowledge

Mr. Abrams recently represented me in a hearing case. I unreservedly recommend his services. James Abrams initially comes across as a quiet and considered individual. He listens, absorbs detail and opinions, and then makes convincing recommendations and decisions that get right to the heart of the i...ssues. In James Abrams, I saw all the key qualities I needed in one person. The result shows simply how good he is. He is diligent, shows great grasp of detail, an ability to pinpoint and address the key issues and was strong in the hearing. I was extremely impressed with Mr. Abram’s experience and knowledge at every stage. He was prepared, forceful without being aggressive, and diplomatic. I cannot recommend Mr. Abram highly enough.
