He is a Fellow in the American College of Trial Lawyers.
Over the past 25 years, Jim’s clients have included 16 Fortune 500 companies. He has served as litigation counsel for clients in a wide range of industries, including an international chemical manufacturer, a nationwide drug store chain and the world’s largest soft drink bottler, as well as companies in pharmaceuticals, financial services and other sectors. Jim handles litigation from its inception, but is often brought in as trial counsel or to appeal a case following an adverse verdict.
