Note: 2023 Review I retained Jim Abrams in connection with complex legal problems. He stood by me for an extended period of time and assisted me in working through them. Jim was always available to me whenever I needed him. My opinion of him is high standard of excellence and a brilliant lawyer!

Had a complex legal issue which seemed to defy answers with other attorneys. Dr. Abrams skillfully, efficiently and staunchly negotiated a settlement. Very refreshing after others didn't seem comfortable with complexity or with a knowledge level to indicate success. Jim keeps you informed at every step. Skills and intellect combined, Jim is a rare find among the ocean of attorneys.

Attorney Jim Abrams has witty, misunderstood personality. I say this because I misunderstood it in the beginning. If Attorney Abrams does choose to take on your case. Rest assure he will do everything he possibly can, for the best outcome of your case. Honestly, we have had some trying times, but what value does a victory ever have without a good and meaningful battle. Abrams knows how to amplify due process to ensure justice is served. What I appreciate and admire about Abrams is his law ethics. Not only does he possess the skill to and knowledge to manage cooperate cases. Abrams isn't opposed to helping the mediocre working-class citizen such as myself. Abrams is respecter for all people regardless of age, color, or religion or gender identity. I am truly grateful for the representation I received from Abrams. With tears in my eyes, I want to say thank you for helping me hold my head. Thank you for showing me there are good leaders in the judicial branches that believe in justice.

After consulting other lawyers, I found some incredibly expensive just for consultation and others said it wasn't worth pursuing in a 'right to work state'. One lawyer I spoke with told me the odds were strongly in the employers favor. I was ready to take the loss until a friend suggested Jim Abrams. Jim listened carefully, understood the facts, and accepted the case for a flat fee. Through his extensive experience, expertise, knowledge, and guidance, we won the appeal! Along with my friend who thankfully suggested him, we highly recommend consulting Jim Abrams, especially when other lawyers say it can't be won.

Jim is very compassionate, knowledgeable, resourceful and understanding. He is an experienced, ethical and timely attorney. Jim is very creative and passionate in his representation of his clients. Though he's been in business over40 years, his enthusiasm for the cases he takes on is often unmatched by other attorneys in the same practice area of law. I would highly recommend him!

Jim Abrams is an outstanding human being and attorney. When Jim took my case; he advised me of all possible outcomes based on the facts at hand. His counsel completely prepared me for what became an emotionally charged and highly contested case. Jim was unwavering and stuck to the facts. Despite my previous employer's obstinacy and defiance which required multiple hearings before a tough judge; Jim shredded the hundreds of exhibits my previous employer produced on cross examination. We won!
