Thomas William James

Tom James has always been up front with me about everything concerning my car accident lawsuit and it has all played out as he said. I enjoyed having him as my legal representative and I'm very happy I picked Michigan Auto Law. In my accident, I was waiting to merge on i-94 west, a truck was in front... of me at a complete stop. We both had our turn signals on and a full size van came barreling down. I knew we were going to get hit and before I knew it my wife and I were both on the floor boards. We got hit 55 miles per hour sitting still. It was quite the ordeal. I first talked to Jordan Jones at Michigan Auto Law. Jordan helped me through the documentation for PIP benefits and all of that good stuff. He was kind and supportive. He did a great job. Jordan handed the case off to Tom for litigation. We had a conference call to start. He explained everything that would happen. He was great with returning my calls and answering my questions. His team also was always here for me, his paralegal Michele and his secretary Robin were all on the case supporting me and helping me through. The case went pretty smoothly and I couldn't have asked for a better law firm to represent me. Nothing is going to change the pain that I have but they settlement outcome they got me is substantial and will help with my family and ongoing medical care.

I wanted to know what my options were because I knew my neck wasn't well and I had headaches, back pain and shoulder pain. I knew going back to work two weeks after my car accident wasn't the best thing to do based on how I felt and what my doctors told me. I turned to Michigan for their expertise, t...heir guidance and to help me through this. I had no idea what to do next. But they knew all the steps. They knew how to get me through what I needed with my insurance company benefits and legal representation for my pain and suffering third party case. Tom James was my lawyer. He was absolutely awesome. He was extremely phenomenal with the knowledge I needed, understanding the process and helping me with everything that needed to be done. He's very professional, down to earth, helpful and friendly. His honesty was what struck me above all. Tom was always quick to respond to me with phone calls or e-mails. If he couldn't get back to me immediately, his wonderful paralegal Michelle would do so. They were an awesome tag team who were dedicated to helping me. I felt like I was their only client. I would very much recommend Tom and Michelle. They treated you like you were one of their family - one of their own to take care of without any hiccups and without any stress. They removed all of the frustration.

I was specifically referred to Tom James by a mutual friend. I've never gone through a car accident like this before and my friend assured me he's an experienced attorney who only handles auto accident litigation. When I talked to Tom, he comforted me and walked me through the process. He extremely k...nowledgeable in the auto law and had my best interests as his top priority. Tom kept me up to speed with my case and ultimately he got me the fairest settlement that I felt I was going to get. The outcome of my case was desirable.

I was hit by a commercial truck driving in my van. I was told I didn't have a case. But attorney Tom James stepped up to the plate and said he would fight for me. My insurance company was helpful at first, but then stopped being helpful and cut off my No Fault benefits. Tom was fantastic. He got me m...y benefits and a great pain and suffering settlement. He and his paralegal Michelle were very businesslike, courteous, helpful, professional – all of the above. Yet they were very down to earth and treated me like a person, not a number. It was really important to me. You have to trust the people you're putting your issues out there. Tom hit a hit home run for me.
