About
I spent four years in the United States Air Force as an air policeman. After honorable discharge I attanded Bakersfield College (AA Degree) and transferred to San Francisco State (BA Degree). While i was in college I worked as a bail bondsman. After graduation i worked as an insurance adjuster for one year and the as a private investigator in San Francisco. In 1969 i returned to Bakersfield and worked as a juvenile probation officer for 1 1/2 years. I then started my own private investigation practice and started commuting to Glendale to attend law school. I graduated with a JD in 1974, passed the bar and started practicing law in Bakersfield, in the areas of crimnal defense, personal injury and workers compensation. In the criminal area i tired traffic tickets to death penalty. Many of these wer high profile and complicated. I was also trying personal injury, medical malpractice, wrongful death and products liabilty cases. I have tried approximately 300 jury trials during my career. I taught law school at Pacific College of Law for three years in Torts.I now practice with my wife Kathleen and son Matthew. We represent people in personal injury, brain injuries and wrongful death.

Matthew Faulkner represented me in a personal injury law suit. Matthew and Jim put in months of hard work preparing for my trial. They were hard working attorneys who researched every detail. They are always personable and professional. Jim and Matt took the time to answer all of my questions and explained the legal process. I highly recommend Matthew and Jim Faulkner to my family and closest friends and would use them again.
Jim and his firm took us as clients at the eleventh hour of our case. We wil never forget what he has done for us. We met Jim the day before the filing deadline and not knowing us from Adam took our case and never looked back. He did everything we asked of him and never tried to talk us out of court. We got our day in court due to his neverending faith in us. He, his wife and son are now and forever will be part of our family. His experience and litigation skills brought our case to a successful conclusion. His son Matthew exhibits the same integrity, honesty and compassion that is patently obvious in his father, Jim. Thank you so very much.
I am at the end of an auto accident case with Jim, and it's still like talking to someone I've known all my life. I can only hope we will continue to maintain our friendship beyond this case. Excellent human being, dam good attorney.
