Testimonials

James took the time to really understand my case and push back against the State Bar who wanted to suspend my license for a year and had set the matter for a five-day trial when I did nothing wrong.  With James’ help, he was able to help them understand the dynamics of my case and the entire action was dismissed.

Client

Mr. Ham has responded promptly with guidance about my professional responsibility that has given me the confidence to navigate complex issues, including how to handle a fee matter with a third party’s Receiver, entering engagements with foreign clients, and potential conflicts with existing clients.  His counsel has been indispensable to me.

Client

I would like to thank you for your incredible professionalism and relentless advocacy on our behalf during the most difficult time … .  Your insight, guidance and leadership throughout the conflict waiver issue were second to none and essential to the favorable result obtained.  We have nothing but the highest regard for you and will certainly keep you in mind in the future.  We will also be writing a letter to USC School of Law’s dean to express our thoughts about your professionalism, competence and exemplary representation.  Thank you very much.

Client

You have no idea what a relief this is.  I feel like a bus has been lifted off of me.  Even a one-month suspension might have forced me to file BK.  You are a great lawyer (like the ‘Tom Brady’ of lawyers) and I am grateful beyond words.  Thank you so much.

Client

My heartfelt thanks to you for your outstanding work on my case with the State Bar.  It is such a relief to have the matter successfully closed. Often we take things for granted until they are placed in jeopardy – including the privilege to practice law.

Client

Jim Ham is as skilled and knowledgeable as he is decent and honest.  He’s a first call in any legal matter because he won’t hesitate in pointing you in another direction if he doesn’t think he’s the absolute best person for the job.

State Bar representation: Perfect 10.

Client

Jim handled a bar complaint for me and I am very happy that I hired him.  After speaking with Jim about the issues, I quickly understood that if I had handled the matter myself, I would have made the matter much more difficult to resolve.  He handled the matter deftly, and the complaint was dismissed with just one response letter from Jim.  Jim really knows this area of law.  I would not hesitate to hire him again or refer him to a friend.
