Satisfied client

I worked with Mr. Abrams recently on a potential employment issue. The experience overall was positive. He's very knowledgeable and experienced. I also appreciate his punctuality and straight-forwardness. It was through his advice, that I was able to get a successful resolution to my case. His hourly... rates are competitive as well. The only downside is Mr. Abrams bedside manner is more stern than friendly, more aggressive than approachable. That being said, I got the results I was looking for with his assistance and would recommend him in the future.

Advocates for employees

I found myself needing an attorney during an unexpected professional transition. Jim agreed to represent me, even outside of his typical process. He was/is very passionate about the rights of employees and helped get more than what I was originally offered. In a world where there isn't always someone... to fight for the "little guy", I'm glad Jim was willing.

We won!

Mr Abrams helped me with a litigation and we were rewarded with an outcome in my favor. He is extremely knowledgeable in the area of law I needed, helped me prepare for the hearing by giving me some excellent concise advice and was very thorough with his questioning. Although you can never predict ...what the outcome may be it was well worth the money just to see Mr Abrams in action and I felt that I had the best representation possible.

A well experience attorney in employment issues

I used google's search engine to find an attorney to help with my unemployment benefits. My former employer contested my eligibility for benefits and I felt I needed an attorney to help me in my hearing. After speaking with 2 other firms and realizing I was in store for as much as $350/hour, I call...ed Mr. Abrams. Jim indicated he charged a $500 flat fee and the other firms were comedians. I am glad I went with the less expensive option as this hearing was a routine one. Jim was well prepared and asked the right questions. He is not the type of person who responds to every email or phone call but he has this down to a science so trust him. He eventually makes sure you are well prepared and eases the anxiety. I would recommend hiring him if your budget is tight or you just need a little extra help.
