I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Monroe. I made a very large mistake that could have been detrimental to my whole life; my career path, my travel plans, my location change... When I was arrested, I called his office immediately, tears in my eyes, just looking for any kind of help. I did not think I would find any. He told me to come by immediately to talk me through the whole situation. While we were talking about what had happened, it was difficult for me to keep my composure. Mr. Monroe was incredibly patient and kind. He not only explained and informed me about next steps, but comforted me and treated me as a person who had simply made a mistake. A bad mistake, nonetheless, but still, he treated me like a person. I left that day feeling confident in the person I had hired to help me in my darkest time. It took nearly a year for anything to even begin moving forward. Anytime I would feel anxious, he and his amazing team kept me in the loop about how things were proceeding and how we were going to be working on my case. He assured me that he would accommodate my necessities to the best of his capability when it came to court and other things I had to do to help my case. To say I am pleased with the outcome, after over a year of anxiety and shame, is a complete understatement. To reiterate, I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Monroe or his team. He quite literally saved my life. I recommend Mr. Monroe and his team to anyone who is in any sort of predicament and in need of their help. You will be treated with kindness, humility, and be kept informed constantly. As for the outcome? Absolutely no need to worry. You will get the results you want, or, in my case, so much more.

I do not normally write reviews however in this case I wanted to share my experience with Dupee and Monroe, Attorneys at Law in Goshen ,NY . I have dealt with a good number of attorneys in the past (not local) however in this particular case I need a local agency . We asked friends for recommendations and the name that continually was at the top was Jim Monroe. We scheduled a meeting with Jim and found him to be prompt (love that) professional ,personable and extremely knowledgeable. The fact that he listened intently ,asked many questions and fully understood my issue was impressive. Many times on a first visit people are trying to sell you a solution without all the facts......NOT HERE. Also the communication with Jim and his staff was always great with a quick reply to any questions. The day I went to court I know I was in good hands and the end result was outstanding. I would highly recommend Jim and his firm to anyone looking for legal counsel.

I hired Mr. Monroe after being arrested for DWI. From my first phonecall to his office, Mr. Monroe was positive, friendly and reassuring. As a professional person who had never been arrested before, I was mortified and scared. Mr. Monroe calmed my nerves and reminded me that I am not a bad person. Mr. Monroe's knowledge of the law and confidence in his abilities were very impressive. He did an outstanding job educating me and preparing me for all possible outcomes. Mr. Monroe pled my DWI down to a DWAI. This resulted jn a 90 day suspension of my license, but with the classes I'll take, I will still be able to transport my children and complete necessities like grocery shopping and doctors appointments. He is a lifesaver. I HIGHLY recommend him!
