This Lawyer will go above and beyond for you. As well as show tremendous empathy for those who are vulnerable and scared. His compassion to help civilian's shows through his actions and with his word. When he says he is going to call he calls even if it’s near holidays or on weekends he is always there for his client’s without rushing off the phone and always professional.

I’ve worked with Mr.Zimmerman on two different legal issues. In both instances he was fantastic! He is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate and able to breakdown a course of action into language anyone can understand. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I highly recommend Mr. Zimmermann as an attorny. I recently purchased an investment property and boy was he helpful. He was easily available, very clear in explaining various concepts, laws and regulations, and provided very helpful tips on negotiating. I found his fee to be more than reasonable espcecially given the incredible availability he provides. In addition, he's very flexible, and he has first-person experience with various trade workers, so that when we needed to have some feature evaluated, it was arranged lightning fast. The fee was reasonable, the results were thorough and the outcome was extremely good. I was, honestly, like a babe in the woods in navigating this transaction, but with Jim taking the time to walk me through everything and explain/answer any questions I had, it was a completely pleasant experience. And I got the property I wanted for the price I was willing to pay. Let's not overlook the staff: totally helpful and knowledgeable. 5 Stars in my book.

Hired Attorney

I hired Mr. Zimmerman and paid promptly for legal services. Unfortunately, after receiving payment, he failed to perform any meaningful work on my case for over a month. He did not obtain the necessary file from my previous attorney, made minimal effort to contact relevant agencies (only left voicemails), and showed a clear lack of engagement throughout. Despite repeated follow-ups, I received no substantive updates, and only after persistent emails did I even receive a copy of the retainer agreement—three weeks after payment. When I requested a refund due to the lack of services provided, instead of acknowledging the issue, he became argumentative and refused to take responsibility. This was a deeply disappointing experience, and I would not recommend this attorney based on his lack of professionalism, communication, and accountability. DO NOT WORK WITH HIM!!!!
