Best of the Best
Professional. Personable. Knowledgeable. Diligent. These are just some of the words that describe Attorney Cuddy. Going through a very contentious divorce with a difficult spouse, I truly could not have asked for a better attorney. Attorney Cuddy used his extensive knowledge and experience to yield ...

Thorough and fair
As counsel handling my divorce, Jim took the time to thoroughly explain the process, obtain all relevant information, and promptly answer any questions I had. I most appreciated the fact that when he received any complaints or concerns from opposing counsel, Jim also wanted to hear my side of the sto...

Unresponsive, doesn't fight for fathers!
Got in the hole for nearly $10,000 before he started getting too busy for me. He stopped returning my calls and emails. Was constantly in court dealing with other cases which made him too busy to represent me. God forbid he return a clients call off hours. It was always exceptionally difficult to con...
I do have several clients and I am in court quite often on family cases which is not a negative. I give attention to all of my clients during their case. Having several clients does not make it difficult for me to appear in court on any of my particular cases. My goal is to return all client calls within 24 hours. It is not possible to call back within the same day on every occasion. The hundreds of clients I have represented at trials and hearings would definitely disagree with any claim that I do not fight for my clients. I cannot get into specifics of the case because of confidentiality issues but the parenting plan was recommended by two professionals who were appointed by the court. I always present any potential agreement and give my clients the positives and negatives of the agreement along with the likelihood of prevailing if the case is heard by a judge. In addition, I also give the likely financial cost of pursuing the client's goals. Clients then choose whether to accept or reject an agreement. As in any case, there are numerous issues to deal with and at times clients are unhappy with the likely outcome. It is always my client's sole decision to accept or reject any agreement. I do not ever force any client to enter into any agreement because the ultimate decision always rests with the client.

Thoroughness, professionalism, and patience
As with most people, I was nervous, upset & worried about hiring an attorney for my divorce. I was referred to James by a friend of a friend.
