Jim and his team are the best family attorneys. I have a “one of a kind “ and highly complicated divorce case and I did interview several reputable attorneys. I really did my research. I absolutely have no regret hiring Jim and his team. My advice would be “hire Jim before your spouse does”. Jim is very knowledgeable, competent, experienced, professional, ethical and realistic. He is also amazing and incredibly articulate in courts! Divorce can get very nasty and expensive. I find Jim and his team to be very ethical in his process. I am grateful for Jim and his team!

I hired Jim after having begun the divorce process with a lawyer in solo practice. My divorce was very high conflict and involved child abuse and it was obvious that the time and energy required to deal with the demands of the case required a larger law firm. To date I have worked with Jim and his team on child custody and could not be happier or more grateful with the positive outcome and the way Jim handled the case. He is incredibly experienced in family law and the family court process and was very strategic in how he approached the very antagonistic situation that the opposing team had set up. As a person and professional Jim has the highest integrity. This was an invaluable asset in court where it was very obvious that the judges in our case greatly respected him and strongly considered the points he made. In presenting our case, Jim was very composed and kept his focus on the children and the outcomes he wanted, even when opposing counsel tried to obfuscate the facts and drag the case in a different direction. His approach won out every time! All our requests with respect to the children were granted, setting up a strategy where the children’s voices were heard as central to the custody outcome. In addition to working with Jim, throughout the process I was supported by his top rate team of lawyers who helped with everything from court filings to keeping me updated on all communications with opposing counsel and who were never more than an email away. Going through an incredibly difficult divorce, I’m very grateful to have Jim and his team by my side. He is a very strong advocate for his clients. I would not hesitate to recommend Jim and his law firm to anyone going through a divorce, especially a complicated divorce with a high conflict personality. I feel that Jim and his team have seen it all before and are experienced enough to strategize for the best possible outcomes.

Jim was especially great in court. He made strong arguments to the judge and did so in a calm and composed manner. Mr. Hoover saw the big picture in my case and was an excellent strategist. He always took the high road with opposing counsel and had my kid's interests as a top priority. He's clearly done this before and knows how to respectfully and assertively get his client's point across.

I spoke to a few attorneys regarding my visitation and child support case with my ex-wife and it immediately became clear that Jim is the most knowledgeable and experienced. He’s very friendly and kept it transparent the entire consultation. Should I have to hire someone for help with family law, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to him and his team. As a real estate broker/agent, he left no doubt who I’ll be referring clients to that are going thru a divorce and in need of reliable representation.

I have engaged Mr. Hoover and his firm representing me in my divorce case. Even though it has been a challenging and emotionally taxing process, Mr. Hoover and his team have been supporting me and keeping my head straight every step of the way. Throughout the interaction and the process incurred so far, it is clear that Mr. Hoover is an expert in the field and knows the law and legal system very well. At the same time, I can attest that Mr. Hoover is a very caring person with his client's best interest in mind. I will not hesitate at all to recommend Mr. Hoover's service to those who are in need of legal representation for family law matters.

When it was time to renegotiate my settlement because my ex retired, Jim was great to work with. My ex spouse had made a proposal for the new settlement and was very confident that it was fair. After consulting with Jim, I realized that was not the case. I have a hard time sticking up for myself and my ex spouses arguments can be very convincing. Jim talked me off the ledge and helped me to get to a truly fair and reasonable end result that was considerably more than I had been offered. His office is very professional, understanding of the emotional issues involved, and represented me without being contentious. YAY! I am so relieved to have that all behind me and have no regrets or doubts about the end result. Thanks Jim!!

Jim is a great attorney. He is very professional and very friendly. He saved me out of my divorce case! Before I hired Jim, my ex-wife tricked me and took away everything I had, Jim was very calm and always made good suggestion, we beated my ex-wife's attorney and brought justice back! I would highly recommend Jim!

Jim helped me with a family-court issue that arose a couple of years ago as a result of my ex-husband committing significant breaches to our custody agreement, in several areas, within just a matter of days. Things had fortunately settled down between my ex-husband and I since those matters were resolved, however, COVID brought about new complexities for our shared custody agreement, and what was allowed under those guidelines at the time another incident arose. My ex-husband made some liberal interpretations of those guidelines and despite my protesting, proceeded to engage in unliteral decisions, again. While I didn't need the full-court press or to schedule a court hearing on this particular situation, I did need some assistance in providing formal documentation that what had occurred was unacceptable, and that I made efforts to communicate with courtesy and was completely ignored. Jim and Patrick assisted in writing (and delivering) a polite, but firm, letter to my ex-husband explaining existing travel/health guidelines in effect at that time, importance of co-parenting and communication, and the potential for matters to be escalated should those unilateral decisions continue to occur. Jim and his team never fail to bring me comfort during difficult situations, even those that seem small compared to most they deal with on a daily basis. Each conversation leaves me with a rational understanding of best and worst case scenarios. I become more easily settled in what path lies ahead and I never feel like I'm walking that path alone. Most importantly, every component of our conversations revolve around what is in the best interest of my son. While these situations are stressful and highly emotional, the actions we take are no less important than how they ultimately impact the child we share. I continue to be forever grateful for finding Jim and his team!

I am very happy to say Jim closed out my martial and child support with a timely exparte. Without Jim's quick and forward thinking, I would have been hurt financially. I feel fortunate to have been represented by him.

Even though it has been a challenging and emotionally taxing process, Mr. Hoover and his team have been supporting me and keeping my head straight every step of the way. Throughout the interaction and the process incurred so far, it is clear that Mr. Hoover is an expert in the field and knows the law and legal system very well. At the same time, I can attest that Mr. Hoover is a very caring person with his client's best interest in mind. I will not hesitate at all to recommend Mr. Hoover's service to those who are in need of legal representation for family law matters.

When it was time to renegotiate my settlement because my ex retired, Jim was great to work with. My ex spouse had made a proposal for the new settlement and was very confident that it was fair. After consulting with Jim, I realized that was not the case. I have a hard time sticking up for myself and my ex spouses arguments can be very convincing. Jim talked me off the ledge and helped me to get to a truly fair and reasonable end result that was considerably more than I had been offered. His office is very professional, understanding of the emotional issues involved, and represented me without being contentious. YAY! I am so relieved to have that all behind me and have no regrets or doubts about the end result. Thanks Jim!!

Jim is a great attorney. He is very professional and very friendly. He saved me out of my divorce case! Before I hired Jim, my ex-wife tricked me and took away everything I had, Jim was very calm and always made good suggestion, we beated my ex-wife's attorney and brought justice back! I would highly recommend Jim!

Jim helped me with a family-court issue that arose a couple of years ago as a result of my ex-husband committing significant breaches to our custody agreement, in several areas, within just a matter of days. Things had fortunately settled down between my ex-husband and I since those matters were resolved, however, COVID brought about new complexities for our shared custody agreement, and what was allowed under those guidelines at the time another incident arose. My ex-husband made some liberal interpretations of those guidelines and despite my protesting, proceeded to engage in unliteral decisions, again. While I didn't need the full-court press or to schedule a court hearing on this particular situation, I did need some assistance in providing formal documentation that what had occurred was unacceptable, and that I made efforts to communicate with courtesy and was completely ignored. Jim and Patrick assisted in writing (and delivering) a polite, but firm, letter to my ex-husband explaining existing travel/health guidelines in effect at that time, importance of co-parenting and communication, and the potential for matters to be escalated should those unilateral decisions continue to occur. Jim and his team never fail to bring me comfort during difficult situations, even those that seem small compared to most they deal with on a daily basis. Each conversation leaves me with a rational understanding of best and worst case scenarios. I become more easily settled in what path lies ahead and I never feel like I'm walking that path alone. Most importantly, every component of our conversations revolve around what is in the best interest of my son. While these situations are stressful and highly emotional, the actions we take are no less important than how they ultimately impact the child we share. I continue to be forever grateful for finding Jim and his team!

I am very happy to say Jim closed out my martial and child support with a timely exparte. Without Jim's quick and forward thinking, I would have been hurt financially. I feel fortunate to have been represented by him.

Jim and his team are the best family attorneys. I have a “one of a kind “ and highly complicated divorce case and I did interview several reputable attorneys. I really did my research. I absolutely have no regret hiring Jim and his team. My advice would be “hire Jim before your spouse does”. Jim is very knowledgeable, competent, experienced, professional, ethical and realistic. He is also amazing and incredibly articulate in courts! Divorce can get very nasty and expensive. I find Jim and his team to be very ethical in his process. I am grateful for Jim and his team!

I hired Jim after having begun the divorce process with a lawyer in solo practice. My divorce was very high conflict and involved child abuse and it was obvious that the time and energy required to deal with the demands of the case required a larger law firm. To date I have worked with Jim and his team on child custody and could not be happier or more grateful with the positive outcome and the way Jim handled the case. He is incredibly experienced in family law and the family court process and was very strategic in how he approached the very antagonistic situation that the opposing team had set up. As a person and professional Jim has the highest integrity. This was an invaluable asset in court where it was very obvious that the judges in our case greatly respected him and strongly considered the points he made. In presenting our case, Jim was very composed and kept his focus on the children and the outcomes he wanted, even when opposing counsel tried to obfuscate the facts and drag the case in a different direction. His approach won out every time! All our requests with respect to the children were granted, setting up a strategy where the children’s voices were heard as central to the custody outcome. In addition to working with Jim, throughout the process I was supported by his top rate team of lawyers who helped with everything from court filings to keeping me updated on all communications with opposing counsel and who were never more than an email away. Going through an incredibly difficult divorce, I’m very grateful to have Jim and his team by my side. He is a very strong advocate for his clients. I would not hesitate to recommend Jim and his law firm to anyone going through a divorce, especially a complicated divorce with a high conflict personality. I feel that Jim and his team have seen it all before and are experienced enough to strategize for the best possible outcomes.

Jim was especially great in court. He made strong arguments to the judge and did so in a calm and composed manner. Mr. Hoover saw the big picture in my case and was an excellent strategist. He always took the high road with opposing counsel and had my kid's interests as a top priority. He's clearly done this before and knows how to respectfully and assertively get his client's point across.

I spoke to a few attorneys regarding my visitation and child support case with my ex-wife and it immediately became clear that Jim is the most knowledgeable and experienced. He’s very friendly and kept it transparent the entire consultation. Should I have to hire someone for help with family law, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to him and his team. As a real estate broker/agent, he left no doubt who I’ll be referring clients to that are going thru a divorce and in need of reliable representation.

In addition to working with Jim, throughout the process I was supported by his top rate team of lawyers who helped with everything from court filings to keeping me updated on all communications with opposing counsel and who were never more than an email away. Going through an incredibly difficult divorce, I’m very grateful to have Jim and his team by my side. He is a very strong advocate for his clients. I would not hesitate to recommend Jim and his law firm to anyone going through a divorce, especially a complicated divorce with a high conflict personality. I feel that Jim and his team have seen it all before and are experienced enough to strategize for the best possible outcomes.

Jim was especially great in court. He made strong arguments to the judge and did so in a calm and composed manner. Mr. Hoover saw the big picture in my case and was an excellent strategist. He always took the high road with opposing counsel and had my kid's interests as a top priority. He's clearly done this before and knows how to respectfully and assertively get his client's point across.

I spoke to a few attorneys regarding my visitation and child support case with my ex-wife and it immediately became clear that Jim is the most knowledgeable and experienced. He’s very friendly and kept it transparent the entire consultation. Should I have to hire someone for help with family law, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to him and his team. As a real estate broker/agent, he left no doubt who I’ll be referring clients to that are going thru a divorce and in need of reliable representation.

I have engaged Mr. Hoover and his firm representing me in my divorce case. Even though it has been a challenging and emotionally taxing process, Mr. Hoover and his team have been supporting me and keeping my head straight every step of the way. Throughout the interaction and the process incurred so far, it is clear that Mr. Hoover is an expert in the field and knows the law and legal system very well. At the same time, I can attest that Mr. Hoover is a very caring person with his client's best interest in mind. I will not hesitate at all to recommend Mr. Hoover's service to those who are in need of legal representation for family law matters.

When it was time to renegotiate my settlement because my ex retired, Jim was great to work with. My ex spouse had made a proposal for the new settlement and was very confident that it was fair. After consulting with Jim, I realized that was not the case. I have a hard time sticking up for myself and my ex spouses arguments can be very convincing. Jim talked me off the ledge and helped me to get to a truly fair and reasonable end result that was considerably more than I had been offered. His office is very professional, understanding of the emotional issues involved, and represented me without being contentious. YAY! I am so relieved to have that all behind me and have no regrets or doubts about the end result. Thanks Jim!!

Jim is a great attorney. He is very professional and very friendly. He saved me out of my divorce case! Before I hired Jim, my ex-wife tricked me and took away everything I had, Jim was very calm and always made good suggestion, we beated my ex-wife's attorney and brought justice back! I would highly recommend Jim!

Jim helped me with a family-court issue that arose a couple of years ago as a result of my ex-husband committing significant breaches to our custody agreement, in several areas, within just a matter of days. Things had fortunately settled down between my ex-husband and I since those matters were resolved, however, COVID brought about new complexities for our shared custody agreement, and what was allowed under those guidelines at the time another incident arose. My ex-husband made some liberal interpretations of those guidelines and despite my protesting, proceeded to engage in unliteral decisions, again. While I didn't need the full-court press or to schedule a court hearing on this particular situation, I did need some assistance in providing formal documentation that what had occurred was unacceptable, and that I made efforts to communicate with courtesy and was completely ignored. Jim and Patrick assisted in writing (and delivering) a polite, but firm, letter to my ex-husband explaining existing travel/health guidelines in effect at that time, importance of co-parenting and communication, and the potential for matters to be escalated should those unilateral decisions continue to occur. Jim and his team never fail to bring me comfort during difficult situations, even those that seem small compared to most they deal with on a daily basis. Each conversation leaves me with a rational understanding of best and worst case scenarios. I become more easily settled in what path lies ahead and I never feel like I'm walking that path alone. Most importantly, every component of our conversations revolve around what is in the best interest of my son. While these situations are stressful and highly emotional, the actions we take are no less important than how they ultimately impact the child we share. I continue to be forever grateful for finding Jim and his team!

Jim and his team are the best family attorneys. I have a “one of a kind “ and highly complicated divorce case and I did interview several reputable attorneys. I really did my research. I absolutely have no regret hiring Jim and his team. My advice would be “hire Jim before your spouse does”. Jim is very knowledgeable, competent, experienced, professional, ethical and realistic. He is also amazing and incredibly articulate in courts! Divorce can get very nasty and expensive. I find Jim and his team to be very ethical in his process. I am grateful for Jim and his team!

I hired Jim after having begun the divorce process with a lawyer in solo practice. My divorce was very high conflict and involved child abuse and it was obvious that the time and energy required to deal with the demands of the case required a larger law firm. To date I have worked with Jim and his team on child custody and could not be happier or more grateful with the positive outcome and the way Jim handled the case. He is incredibly experienced in family law and the family court process and was very strategic in how he approached the very antagonistic situation that the opposing team had set up. As a person and professional Jim has the highest integrity. This was an invaluable asset in court where it was very obvious that the judges in our case greatly respected him and strongly considered the points he made. In presenting our case, Jim was very composed and kept his focus on the children and the outcomes he wanted, even when opposing counsel tried to obfuscate the facts and drag the case in a different direction.

I continue to be forever grateful for finding Jim and his team!

I am very happy to say Jim closed out my martial and child support with a timely exparte. Without Jim's quick and forward thinking, I would have been hurt financially. I feel fortunate to have been represented by him.

Jim and his team are the best family attorneys. I have a “one of a kind “ and highly complicated divorce case and I did interview several reputable attorneys. I really did my research. I absolutely have no regret hiring Jim and his team. My advice would be “hire Jim before your spouse does”. Jim is very knowledgeable, competent, experienced, professional, ethical and realistic. He is also amazing and incredibly articulate in courts! Divorce can get very nasty and expensive. I find Jim and his team to be very ethical in his process. I am grateful for Jim and his team!

I hired Jim after having begun the divorce process with a lawyer in solo practice. My divorce was very high conflict and involved child abuse and it was obvious that the time and energy required to deal with the demands of the case required a larger law firm. To date I have worked with Jim and his team on child custody and could not be happier or more grateful with the positive outcome and the way Jim handled the case. He is incredibly experienced in family law and the family court process and was very strategic in how he approached the very antagonistic situation that the opposing team had set up. As a person and professional Jim has the highest integrity. This was an invaluable asset in court where it was very obvious that the judges in our case greatly respected him and strongly considered the points he made. In presenting our case, Jim was very composed and kept his focus on the children and the outcomes he wanted, even when opposing counsel tried to obfuscate the facts and drag the case in a different direction. His approach won out every time! All our requests with respect to the children were granted, setting up a strategy where the children’s voices were heard as central to the custody outcome. In addition to working with Jim, throughout the process I was supported by his top rate team of lawyers who helped with everything from court filings to keeping me updated on all communications with opposing counsel and who were never more than an email away. Going through an incredibly difficult divorce, I’m very grateful to have Jim and his team by my side. He is a very strong advocate for his clients. I would not hesitate to recommend Jim and his law firm to anyone going through a divorce, especially a complicated divorce with a high conflict personality. I feel that Jim and his team have seen it all before and are experienced enough to strategize for the best possible outcomes.

Jim was especially great in court. He made strong arguments to the judge and did so in a calm and composed manner. Mr. Hoover saw the big picture in my case and was an excellent strategist. He always took the high road with opposing counsel and had my kid's interests as a top priority. He's clearly done this before and knows how to respectfully and assertively get his client's point across.

I spoke to a few attorneys regarding my visitation and child support case with my ex-wife and it immediately became clear that Jim is the most knowledgeable and experienced. He’s very friendly and kept it transparent the entire consultation. Should I have to hire someone for help with family law, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to him and his team. As a real estate broker/agent, he left no doubt who I’ll be referring clients to that are going thru a divorce and in need of reliable representation.

I have engaged Mr. Hoover and his firm representing me in my divorce case. Even though it has been a challenging and emotionally taxing process, Mr. Hoover and his team have been supporting me and keeping my head straight every step of the way. Throughout the interaction and the process incurred so far, it is clear that Mr. Hoover is an expert in the field and knows the law and legal system very well. At the same time, I can attest that Mr. Hoover is a very caring person with his client's best interest in mind. I will not hesitate at all to recommend Mr. Hoover's service to those who are in need of legal representation for family law matters.

When it was time to renegotiate my settlement because my ex retired, Jim was great to work with. My ex spouse had made a proposal for the new settlement and was very confident that it was fair. After consulting with Jim, I realized that was not the case. I have a hard time sticking up for myself and my ex spouses arguments can be very convincing. Jim talked me off the ledge and helped me to get to a truly fair and reasonable end result that was considerably more than I had been offered. His office is very professional, understanding of the emotional issues involved, and represented me without being contentious. YAY! I am so relieved to have that all behind me and have no regrets or doubts about the end result. Thanks Jim!!

Jim is a great attorney. He is very professional and very friendly. He saved me out of my divorce case! Before I hired Jim, my ex-wife tricked me and took away everything I had, Jim was very calm and always made good suggestion, we beated my ex-wife's attorney and brought justice back! I would highly recommend Jim!

Jim helped me with a family-court issue that arose a couple of years ago as a result of my ex-husband committing significant breaches to our custody agreement, in several areas, within just a matter of days. Things had fortunately settled down between my ex-husband and I since those matters were resolved, however, COVID brought about new complexities for our shared custody agreement, and what was allowed under those guidelines at the time another incident arose. My ex-husband made some liberal interpretations of those guidelines and despite my protesting, proceeded to engage in unliteral decisions, again. While I didn't need the full-court press or to schedule a court hearing on this particular situation, I did need some assistance in providing formal documentation that what had occurred was unacceptable, and that I made efforts to communicate with courtesy and was completely ignored. Jim and Patrick assisted in writing (and delivering) a polite, but firm, letter to my ex-husband explaining existing travel/health guidelines in effect at that time, importance of co-parenting and communication, and the potential for matters to be escalated should those unilateral decisions continue to occur. Jim and his team never fail to bring me comfort during difficult situations, even those that seem small compared to most they deal with on a daily basis. Each conversation leaves me with a rational understanding of best and worst case scenarios. I become more easily settled in what path lies ahead and I never feel like I'm walking that path alone. Most importantly, every component of our conversations revolve around what is in the best interest of my son. While these situations are stressful and highly emotional, the actions we take are no less important than how they ultimately impact the child we share.
