Jim has successfully represented thousands of clients from more than 175 cities and towns throughout the Commonwealth in a wide range of personal injury cases, including motor vehicle accidents, slip and fall incidents, animal attacks, injuries sustained in assisted living and nursing home facilities, and more.
His courtroom success is underscored by securing a historic $10 million jury verdict, the largest ever awarded in Franklin County.
Jim separates himself from other lawyers with his accessibility to clients. He believes that strong representation starts with clear communication.
