“James is extremely knowledgeable about my case and works very hard to make sure that I’m taken care of and that I’m happy with the current status of my divorce. I don’t think there is anything else that could be done that isn’t being done already. I have had the best experience I could have imagined. This is not easy to go through but I feel very welcome in the office, I’m always greeted with smiles, no matter what is discussed in my meeting I feel that my attorney looks at it as the most important thing he has to do, and when talking to my attorney he always looks me in the eyes when discussing my situation and is never distracted by anything. I’m taken serious and that means a lot. I could not have asked for a better attorney than James Todd.”

“Jim was an exceptional attorney to work with. Jim was very open and honest with the case and with where I stood and what I should agree/disagree with. Any time I had a question/comment/concern, Jim was available even on weekends. The line of communication was amazing and even though divorce is hard, hiring Jim was definitely the right decision for me as a father. My ex wife did not make this case easy but Jim went into it full stream and fought for me. Only thing I would say, Jim, be even more aggressive in future especially in the crazy and messed up cases but thank you for helping me get through it, for being there whenever I needed you, and just being a friend to a dad who needed one. Thanks again.”
— Dan R.

— David R.
“Jim was a consummate professional who answered my questions and responded to my gripes, whines, and complaints in a timely manner.
