AVOID THIS ATTORNEY
Sadly the other anonymous 1 star reviewer is spot on as the EXACT SAME THING happened to me (except no one was "intoxicated" and I actually paid him over $300 bucks). Mr. Abrams FAILED as an attorney to adequately listen to my needs and actually TAKE ACTION to draft up a document which I had requeste...

Replied last June 12, 2019After spending considerable resources, we identified the individual who slandered us anonymously. This individual had prior counsel before coming to us. The reviewer was fired from employment. Then, the writer of the criticism sought and received legal services from us in excess of the amount actually paid. Not every client can obtain legal assistance to reverse their circumstances. The facts of this case supported the employer's decision to separate this employee who it is safe to say, demonstrated the same characteristics with the former employer [and us] that lead to the firing. This individual fabricated facts with the former employer, fabricated facts with us and fabricated facts in his retaliatory writing to Avvo because the client was unable to obtain the relief sought. There was no request for a refund, no complaint, the writer provided no ability to prove the assertions made about the employer and the writer's identity was then hidden in the Avvo report, it also being fabricated. Notably, this individual combed through many of our reviews to identify a single adverse commentary, among over 150 five star reviews, one by an impaired former client who was declined service. The individual about whom you are now reading then fabricated facts to align the writer's situation with the former client who was declined service. The Denver District Attorney's office indicated that this type of misconduct, i.e. false communications, qualifies as wire fraud by the reviewer, i.e., a reviewer using an interstate, electronic means to perpetrate a fraud on the public by disseminating false information.

Said he would represent me , wouldn't allow me to talk it over with my wife. Stole $260 from me at my lowest point.
I set up a consult with JIM. Although on his website it says the Consultation is free. I met him at his home office and paid him $260 to speak about my case. Jim spent the entire time (1 hour) typing on his computer and didn't look over any of my case. I still thought I was going to move forward ...

Replied last December 31, 2018We identified this individual after a period of time. He is an individual who presented himself in an intoxicated state. He was informed in advance that there was no charge to discuss his matter over the phone but if he came in for an appointment there was a charge. He was provided substantial services; no attorney would provide such information on a complimentary basis. He also appeared without the required fee. He was reminded that this was a fee bearing meeting at the commencement of the meeting. While he was provided with an unsigned fee agreement, we decided that he could not be provided legal services given his substance abuse and lack of credibility. He then became enraged and fabricated facts. Attorneys are no different than any other business or profession in having the right to decline service.
