I was so fortunate to be able to hire Jamie James as my divorce lawyer. Jamie from the onset had my children in mind as the top priority, rightfully so. She set the tone, direction, and priorities during the course of my 16 month long divorce. By staying in my house I was able to be involved with my children day to day activity. Jamie was able to get me a shared physical custody outcome. This was critical, not only for my relationship with my children, to attain a settlement that was fair and protect my interests. Jamie was always available week day, week nights, and weekends. On several occasions Jamie has provided on the spot guidance during difficult situations that proved to be very smart and proactive that kept me in my home with my children. Again, a key aspect to my case. Jamie also strategically redirected when there was a need. After the pre trial conference, Jamie redirected strategy based off of new information from the judge. This creativity and care about her client was again another driver to get my case settled in the direction I wanted. Thanks to Jamie and her staff, Nichole and Brenda. Nick

I am going through an awful divorce and have a custody issue/safety concerns for my daughter. I interviewed numerous attorneys and did not trust that any of them could handle my complex case. Jamie came highly recommended to me so I contacted her. What a blessing! Jamie is highly intelligent, reassuring and compassionate. She has zest for each of her cases and she CARES about outcomes! I believe in God and I feel that God has blessed me and my child with such an amazing attorney and person! I love this woman! You will too! Do not hesitate! Call Jamie and speak to her yourself.

Attorney James is the epitome of a professional and with the help of her and her team I was able to know I was in good hands. I had go through a few attorneys and learn that they are not all the same. One of the best decisions I’ve ever made was hiring attorney James for what’s suppose to be an exhausting process with the probate court and it turned into a peace of mind and I’ve gotten everything I’d hope for and more! Attorney James and Attorney Medley together provided impeccable communication and was proactive since day one. I will forever be greatful for their help!

Jamie took a negative situation that I was in and turned it into a positive victory. No games, no nonsense. She represented me in a way that as I listened and watched her in the courtroom, I knew I would be ok. I would highly recommend her office to anyone going thru divorce and/or separation. Top Shelf Representation!!!

I hired Jamie James to represent me in a child support modification in the state of New Hampshire, and she was aggressive, knowledgeable, and compassionate. Although Jamie has only practiced in New Hampshire for a few years, she wiped the floor with the opposing counsel (he is highly regarded as one of the most respected and accomplished family attorneys in New Hampshire and has been practicing in the state for over 50 years ). Jamie James is a brilliant, no-nonsense attorney. She was very responsive and always returned my phone calls, text messages, and emails within a short time. She also accommodated my need to have meetings after business hours as I am a surgeon and do not have regular hours. I have a very high income and had an unfair child support order. It was a complex case, and Jamie James did an exceptional job representing me. I am pleased with the outcome.

I was referred to Atty James by another attorney who felt my divorce case was a bit complicated and out of their league. From our first meeting I was impressed, Atty James is very direct and thorough with her questions and what is needed to prepare for court. Our first court appearance really told the story, she drove the discussion clearly putting opposing counsel in their place. Every hearing Atty James had control of the situation and I always felt my best interest was protected. My divorce was scheduled for trial, Atty James did an amazing preparation that resulted in opposing counsel to concede on some of their most important items to settle the case prior to trial. I highly recommend Atty James.

While going through my divorce Jamie and her team were there for me every step of the way. Jamie made herself available to me and answered all of my questions whenever I had concerns regarding my divorce. Jamie is a fighter who cares a great deal about her clients - both in terms of the legal process, as well as the emotional aspect of what a divorce can do. I felt comfortable putting my trust in Jamie's hands and I am so glad she represented me. Thank you again to you and your team!
