Appeal

I retained Jim Abrams in order to assist me in a matter where I was owed a substantial amount of money. He spent a considerable amount of time preparing me. After the other side learned that Jim was representing me, it defaulted before the case was tried, that is, it did not show up and my case was s...uccessfully resolved. I do not believe this would have occurred had I not engaged Jim to assist me.

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.

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.

So glad I found him

Was calling around for an attorney, and found Jim. He took the time to consult with me free of charge to listen to what my needs were. Once hired, his rate was flat and reasonable, and he understood the parameters of my case. He was attentive and accommodating to my situation. The hearing I hired him... for, was originally supposed to take an hr. and Jim spent 10 hrs getting me prepared and working tirelessly to get desired outcome. Jim controlled the hearing and spoke up in my best interests. Having him as my attorney took away a lot of pressure and stress. He also has a great sense of humor! Thanks Jim!

Above and Beyond

Jim Abrams is an exceptional attorney, going above and beyond to craft an exemplary cease and desist letter. I could not ask for a better attorney; I have already recommended Jim Abrams to friends if ever they should need these services and will continue to spread the word. He is truly the best in th...e business!
