Mr Jefferies was great to work with and helped us out with every question or concern we had. not only once but this is our second time needing a attorney. i would reccomend him to any one who is looking for a good lawyer for child custody.

Jim Jeffries is the worst attorney I have ever been involved with dealing with child custory. He is lazy, refuses to actually look at facts and causes unneeded problems costing more money. Mr. Jeffries make horrible decisions that hinder clear progress through the custody courts. Please consider anyone else for your legal needs.

Mr. Jeffries Has cost my family a lot of time and money with little to no movement in our custody case. He does not return phone calls or emails (for months if ever) and does not proceed as he ensures that he will. When we follow up to inquire about something he said would be filed and has not (after asking many many times over the past year), he becomes rude and says that these things take time. Twice he did not show up for hearings either on time or at all- substituting with an associate without notice. He mails duplicates of orders that the court sends and charges you for it, also charges for things that he did not complete. We hired a new attorney and in less than 24 hours he completed what we have been asking mr. Jeffries to do for the past year. He would not seek what we were asking for in hearings even though he assured that he would. The list goes on, and though he is such a nice man, unfortunately I do not endorse him as a lawyer. Time is precious when it comes to children, and that just doesn’t seem to be a priority to him.

I cannot get this lawyer to return phone calls. He is very knowledgeable, but doesn't keep me informed. I have had meetings cancelled at the last minute. His tone in conversation is very degrading.
