James Edward Hickmon

Great to work with.

I had never hired a lawyer and it was an extremely difficult time for our family. I could not have chosen better. Jim and his entire staff are kind, caring, and thoroughly knowledgeable on what can be done. I always felt my case was important to them and that they were doing their best for me at all times. Jim prepares for all outcomes no matter how remote. He's a fighter but also an excellent listener, hearing what you say as well as what you're not saying. Jim will always tell you the truth!

Numerous attorneys said that Mr. Hickmon was the only person they would recommend for my complex multi-state legal issue. That speaks volumes about his professional reputation! He was thorough, thoughtful, and intelligent. Each step of my case had its own unique difficulty & Mr. Hickmon always knew exactly what to do. Based upon my work with other attorneys, I can attest that his vast legal knowledge, professionalism, and relatability are a rare combination so my resources were well spent.

Jim has been instrumental in our guardianship case that span across multiple states and clerk of the court filings. Highly recommend Jim!

Jim is extremely thorough, diligent, knowledgeable and very responsive. He returns calls and emails and never leaves you hanging. He stands up for his client even under difficult circumstances. He does his research and comes prepared to meetings, mediation or court. I highly recommend Jim to handle your legal needs. His staff is professional and thorough. I am a fan of Jim and the firm. If you want honest, fair and someone that fights for you, Jim is the lawyer you need.

I engaged Jim after a major investment firm froze all of my father’s assets, and subsequently the assets that I had with the firm as well. At 100 years of age my father had finally begun to succumb to a number of health issues. With diminished capacity as well as significant memory issues, he was declared incompetent. It was a very tough time for the family as you can imagine. My father had a revocable trust in place, and had removed the major investment firm as successor trustee the year before. The investment firm chose to ignore the provisions of the trust, and was not only cavalier about their actions but became virtually non-responsive. Jim engaged directly with the firm’s General Counsel and very appropriately got straight to the matter. Jim also engaged other members of his firm to assist, Christian Perrin specifically, and together they provided our family with excellent counsel and resolved all matters. The investment firm made things very complicated, but Jim resolved matters within 45 days. Jim’s approach was measured and extremely professional. His firm operates as a team, and we felt extremely well represented. Another member of the family is now likely to use their services for estate planning as well. I highly recommend Jim and the firm.

I will say that Mr. Hickmon is a very professional attorney and that he along with his colleagues rendered me first class service. I would recommend him personally and his firm without hesitation

At all times Mr. Hickmon proved himself to be very knowledgeable about the areas of law in which I needed his help.He is very personable, easy to communicate with and made it comfortable to work with him. He has been readily available when I have needed him regardless of the time of day. It is my personal opinion that Mr. Hickmon is a consummate professional.I would never hesitate to refer any of my family, friends or clients to him because I am confident they would receive competent care.
