Highly Recommend

I hired Jim to represent me in a contested, adversarial hearing. He is a beast in the courtroom. He is extremely knowledgeable and great at what he does. I highly recommend hiring him, especially if you're dealing with an employer who terminated you without justifiable grounds.

Consultation

Jim represented me in a case where I was terribly mistreated. There were accidents that were not my fault. I was injured. The employer let me go but it did provide me more wages and benefits after Jim entered the picture. Even after my consultation had ended, Jim guided me without charge.

Phenomenal lawyer

I hired James Abrams to represent my mother as she was wrongfully terminated from her job. Mr. Abrams was the only lawyer to call me back after leaving messages with over a dozen different lawyers. I was very grateful that he was the one that called me back, he is a great lawyer that knows the labor ...law very well. His cross examination of my mothers ex boss was phenomenal to say the least. He went above and beyond to make sure that my mothers rights were taken care of. Thank you very much James Abram, if we could’ve given you at 10 stars we would’ve!!!

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.

Speech-Language Pathologist

Mr. Abrams has been a fantastic lawyer throughout the course of my lawsuit. He is well versed in the legal system, the legal community and was professional throughout one of the most tense seasons of my life. Having been terminated by previous employer a year ago, Mr. Abrams demonstrates he is a true... believer in what it means to fight for justice and I am forever indebted to him.
