The Law Office of James M Hoffmann was referred to me from a previous client, that was extremely impressed, with his service and outcome.
I met with Jim Hoffmann to discuss a car accident. Three cars were involved, my car was totaled, and I was seriously injured. After meeting with Jim the very first time, I immediately felt comfortable, and knew that he would have my back, and would fight for me.
Throughout my journey, I dealt with a lot of pain and several issues that lasted for years. During this time I had to contact Jim and Jamie (Jimโs wonderful assistant) many times. Every time I sent an email with questions, I received feedback extremely quickly!
I feel Jim negotiated a great settlement for me!
