Let me start off by saying how truly thankful I am, not only to Mr. Ransom, but his whole firm. August 2017 after being jailed and ticketed for a DUI, Mr. Ransom contacted me. YES, I didn't even have to contact him. After seeing and meeting with multiple lawyers whom I didn't get such a good vibe from. I googled around, put in my information, and that very day he called me.. personally, on his way home from work. He not only won my DUI case, but I wasn't even there. I was stuck at work, and he handled everything. I am beyond blessed and truly thankful. I can continue my career, in the medical field and not worry. He fought for me to the last second, and even offered to help me clear the jail record, when he had already done enough. If you're looking for someone who will in fact go the extra mile, then you're looking at the right man.

He was amazing. I received a not guilty verdict because of my lawyer. He followed up with the ADA. He made her prove that I was under the influence & she couldn't do it. The judge actually said, "you have a good lawyer".

Jim was able to represent me in Alabama while I was in Nashville. He explained everything to me thoroughly and made sure I felt comfortable and confident through out the process. He was friendly and kind and the perfect advocate/representative for me with the district attorney's office. I could not have asked for a better or more competent lawyer. He will fight for you!

James was recommended to me by a family member and he did an amazing job in the handling of my custody case. I live out of state and we did everything by phone. If he needed documents I would email them to him. James always answered my email's immediately and when I did call his office, the ladies I spoke with were knowledgeable, helpful, & respectful. If James needed to speak to me he would email me and ask me to call him. I loved that he did this because it showed the importance of caring for my time. Lastly, since I live out of state I was able to give him a limited power of attorney to represent me in court without me being present. I was glad that he allowed me to do because if I had to actually be present it would have been a burden on my day to day finances.

Our lawyer did an awesome job. He showed up and handled our case and got our case settled with only 2 court dates in what we thought would take a year or longer to settle! He also had really good prices that we were actually able to afford. I would recommend Jim for any of your criminal cases because he knew what he was doing when we walked in his office from day one. He stayed in touch and kept us informed on our case so we knew all of our options the entire process. Excellent criminal defense attorney! Our case was dropped from a felony to a misdemeanor which was great on our behalf.
