About

I am a lifelong resident of the South sound region. Growing up in the small fishing town of Westport Washington, I understand the needs of my clients.  With nearly three decades of experience and over 6,000 cases filed, I have the skills and knowledge to get results for my clients. For convenience I have offices in both Tacoma and Olympia. Many of my clients do not realize the potential relief bankruptcy may provide for either themselves or their business until they consult with me. I also routinely provide consultation and advice for attorneys throughout Western Washington on bankruptcy issues and the impact of bankruptcy on other areas of law.

James was very knowledgeable and was able to get us chapter 7 BK instead of 11. He has also been easy to get in touch with and continues answer any questions I've had since filing in 2009. He is the best!

James helped us through bankruptcy. Obviously that was not a great time for us, just about everything that could go wrong did with the development and construction of our home. He helped us through our financial nightmare. The wife of a co-worker, a local Olympia attorney, had highly recommended him and to this day I'm so glad I checked with her. He gracefully guided us through what could have been a very uncomfortable and daunting process. From the very beginning we knew we were in good hands. He listened attentively and clearly explained every step of the process, but most importantly, each time we communicated I knew He would follow through. I could go on and on, ...I was truly amazed. Hecexemplifies the best of your profession ...and I don't pass out compliments lightly.

I was forced to file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy that was complicated with many entities involved. My Bankruptcy attorney at the time had done a poor job in making sure everything was closed off. After discharge, I continued to work on one of the entities to try and turn things around which I did. Once the entity that was written off by everyone, including the bankruptcy trustee, they realized that there was now money, they came clamoring for it without even considering the money or time it took to create something out of nothing , and since my original attorney had not don't his job, my post bankruptcy work was now going to the trustee. All I wanted was to be reimbursed for my expenses in recreating value in the entity. Nobody would listen or even take my case, except for Jim Dart. Jim never wavered, knew I was being wronged and worked tirelessly to find a resolution, which he did. I cant thank Jim enough for doing something that every other attorney I talked to wouldn't touch. I couldn't think of working with any other attorney .Thank you Jim!

Jim never wavered, knew I was being wronged and worked tirelessly to find a resolution, which he did. I cant thank Jim enough for doing something that every other attorney I talked to wouldn't touch. I couldn't think of working with any other attorney .Thank you Jim!

James was very knowledgeable and was able to get us chapter 7 BK instead of 11. He has also been easy to get in touch with and continues answer any questions I've had since filing in 2009. He is the best!

Mr. Dart is an excellent bankruptcy lawyer. Mr. Dart is very knowledgeable and a complete professional and it was a privilege to have him as my lawyer. I would recommend the law firm of Shoemaker Dart to anyone wishing to seek relief from financial distress.

James helped us through bankruptcy. Obviously that was not a great time for us, just about everything that could go wrong did with the development and construction of our home. He helped us through our financial nightmare. The wife of a co-worker, a local Olympia attorney, had highly recommended him and to this day I'm so glad I checked with her. He gracefully guided us through what could have been a very uncomfortable and daunting process. From the very beginning we knew we were in good hands. He listened attentively and clearly explained every step of the process, but most importantly, each time we communicated I knew He would follow through. I could go on and on, ...I was truly amazed. Hecexemplifies the best of your profession ...and I don't pass out compliments lightly.

I was forced to file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy that was complicated with many entities involved. My Bankruptcy attorney at the time had done a poor job in making sure everything was closed off. After discharge, I continued to work on one of the entities to try and turn things around which I did. Once the entity that was written off by everyone, including the bankruptcy trustee, they realized that there was now money, they came clamoring for it without even considering the money or time it took to create something out of nothing , and since my original attorney had not don't his job, my post bankruptcy work was now going to the trustee. All I wanted was to be reimbursed for my expenses in recreating value in the entity. Nobody would listen or even take my case, except for Jim Dart. Jim never wavered, knew I was being wronged and worked tirelessly to find a resolution, which he did. I cant thank Jim enough for doing something that every other attorney I talked to wouldn't touch. I couldn't think of working with any other attorney .Thank you Jim!
