Treats me like Family

I have never worked with a lawyer before and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find someone who truly cared about me and my situation. However, I truly believe it was a blessing that I found Jim. He treats me like I am one of his daughters. So attentive, so detail oriented, and he always goes ...above and beyond to spend time with me and make sure all my questions are answered. I honestly never thought someone like Jim even existed. Every day I thank God that I found him. We have been working together for a couple months now and I have complete confidence in my Lawer, James Abrams. He is truly one of a kind. For example, He will often email me every other day just to check in and see how i'm doing. He will educate me on the legal facts which I love. He will send me links to other articles which explain why my boss is acting in an extremely unprofessional and with misconduct. Jim's knowledge about the law and how to navigate it is very impressive. I love that he will talk to me on the phone for an hour without making me feel rushed. He truly cares about me and I know that even when my case is finally resolved, that we will remain good friends for life. Again, I recommend James Abrams 200% without any hesitation. If any of you out there are still searching, then look no more. This lawyer is practicing because he wants to make our lives better and he does this with love, compassion, kindness, and grace. Thank you Jim for making me feel like part of your family.

A True Professional. Words Do No Justice.

Mr. Abrams came to our family's aid one Saturday evening. We were experiencing serious civil rights violations from a local organisation, and didn't know where to turn. Mr. Abrams contacted us quickly and spoke with us the next day. He gave us great advice and pointed us into the right direction on h...ow to proceed. Mr. Abrams listened diligently, with compassion and interest, and reassured us that this outrage would be rectified. We did our homework, Mr. Abrams did his, and he delivered the results that we were hoping. I am proud to have met Mr. Abrams, as he has brought our family back together. All I can say is Thank You and, again, words do no justice to express the gratitude that we have for "Jim."

Excellent Assistance

I contacted Mr. Abrams in January to help me with an appeal case against my previous employer. I had already won the first appeal and my previous employer appealed that decision. I hired Mr. Abrams to handle this appeal and he was excellent. He took the information provided and set up the brief for m...e within a week. He submitted the brief in a timely manner and in a week, I had a decision on the appeal. The ruling was in my favor again and I am ever so thankful for a job well done..

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.

HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENTCASE

I was lucky to have James Abrams as my attorney. He is an excellent lawyer and I give my highest recommendation. He is honest, straightforward and confident. He was extremely responsive to all my communication and was always available to answer all my questions and phone calls. I was being harassed a...nd discriminated in a hostile work environment. He analyzed my case thoroughly. His expertise in work harassment and discrimination led to a favorable outcome for me. He is tenacious, during what had turned out to be an endurance contest. We persuaded the employer it was in for a fight and big legal bills, it then decided to mediate and settle the case. You will also have the privilege to meet Sadie his Golden doodle, Sadie is the most loving "assistant" any client could hope for. You would be lucky to have Jim advocate for you.
