See What Our Clients Are Saying
James was absolutely outstanding. He worked with both my ex-wife and me during our divorce, guiding us through an incredibly difficult time — made even more challenging by COVID delays and court backlogs. From start to finish, James created an environment where we both felt heard, respected, and supported. His professionalism, deep knowledge, and genuine compassion helped us reach fair resolutions without unnecessary conflict. I highly recommend James to anyone looking for a fair, balanced, and caring attorney who truly understands how to navigate emotionally charged situations. Price was more than fair. I couldn’t recommend enough.

Wonderful to work with as the results went above and beyond. Thank you again Annie & Vercollone.
