"Jim was an exceptional attorney during my divorce six years ago. He was supportive and encouraging when I needed reassurance, and when I needed him to be firm and protect me and my sons, he did so. I highly recommend him if you're looking for a divorce attorney. I appreciated that he worked well with my ex-husband's divorce lawyer. As someone who is no longer angry about the divorce, I understand the importance of having an attorney with experience, understanding, and realism about how the process works and what is best for saving money. I value Jim's advice and perspective. I like that after everything was over, he told me I would be fine and maybe even better. Six years later, I am doing just that. My boys are doing well, and my ex and I get along. Thanks, Jim, for being my support when I needed it."

"Jim is an excellent family law attorney! I had a particularly difficult case and Jim represented me the second time around in my divorce and custody case. (My first attorney collected money but didn't do much representation) Jim is honest and thoughtful and he really let me know every step of the way through the process on what to expect. I highly recommend Jim as a first time around choice. Save yourself the time, money and additional heartache. Get Jim on your side as soon as you have to make the difficult decision to divorce. I truly can't thank him enough."
