He represents several of my businesses. Great guy, even better attorney. I’d recommend him to anyone.

Working with James has been a perfect compliment to my business and its success moving forward. His extensive knowledge of the law and his impeccable application and execution of it makes his clients lives much easier. He is always quick to respond to correspondence and is organized to perfection. My favorite aspect of James' practice is that he takes the time to explain in detail what is going on so as his client we are never in the dark over anything. I highly recommend James for your legal needs.

Jim is a very knowledgeable and honest attorney. As a business banker, I have worked with him on several referrals both from and to him and he has been very helpful. On occasion, when it wasn't his area of expertise, he even referred me to someone better suited for the situation. I highly recommend Jim.

Mr. Stark represents our transportation company, and we will never use anyone else! He's attentive, really knows transportation law at a deep level, makes excellent legal and business recommendations. He anticipates issues for us and cuts them off at the pass, and even helps our staff with legal best practices to keep them learning and improving on legal items (i.e. record keeping, employment issues, contract issues and compliance, etc.). Our prior lawyer charged us double and was not nearly as good.

I have been running businesses for over 20yrs and have dealt with countless attorneys in that time and I can without a doubt say that Jim is the most honest and sincere I've come across. He always has his clients best interest in mind and has no problem spending non-billable hours going over things with you to make sure he gets it. As long as I have a choice, I'll never use another attorney.

I have worked with Jim on a couple projects now. One was a dispute with a large media/service provider. He was responsive, promptly answered my questions, and clearly explained the situation to me. He was polite and professional but also pushed aggressively against the other side when it was necessary, which is what ultimately led to a very satisfactory resolution. I will definitely use him again.

He has represented my company on a number of internal corporate and transactional matters. On all occasions, he has demonstrated absolute professionalism and unparalleled competence. Over all, what sets him apart from the other counsel our company has hired in the past, is his understanding of the real life business considerations. Law should not be practiced in a vacuum, and Mr. Stark understands that at the end of the day, what maters if obtaining a result that is in the best interest of the client's business.
