I was making a business decision with a former client of Jim Kramers. We discussed our business relationship and the value we both brought to the table for our tasks at hand. When our discussion turned to personal interests, I divulged my marriage was over and my wife was seeking to aggressively destroy all that we had built for no reason but to be in control and destructive towards myself, my son, and our assets..
This Gentleman immediately advised how Jim Kramer changed his life and secured his assets in the best position for himself and his daughter. I heard his testimony about Jim and new it was something special to receive a reference based on my very difficult situation. I believe God brings the right people into your life when you open your heart to Him. Jim Kramer took my case without blinking and proved his experience was far superior to the fees he charged for his services. It was the best decision I've ever been lead to make and have thanked God everyday for the sustainable relationship I now have with my son as a result of Jims highly effective leadership and resolve for the heart wrenching impossible I was facing. He's truly a gift to fathers deserving of being given the chance to be the Best Dad they can be. God Bless Jim Kramer for all that he's accomplished for all of us.

I know it was divine intervention that led me to Mr. James Kramer. When I was referred to him to take a look at my case, I was at serious risk of losing my only child to a relocation. In terms of where my case stood when I walked into his office, most attorneys were like go help your son pack his bags. Less than 1 year later Kramer has me in the drivers seat with majority custody and loving life with my child. If you love your kids which I am sure you do and you are fighting for your rights, please don't make the same mistake I did the first time hiring a family attorney. Kramer is a walking encyclopedia in Family Law! He is professional, sincere, genuine and truly has a heart for dads desiring to be with their kids. Thank you James Kramer for all you have done for me and my son. There are no words that can express my gratitude for your services and efforts exhausted in helping me keep my relationship with my only child. To all the dads out there that believe there is no hope left, a couple of words of wisdom for you, Call James Kramer! I am so glad I did.. Simply the best family attorney in Tampa.

Jim is amazing! He spends his time fighting for father's rights, and for men who want to be part of their children's lives. My ex-wife didn't want me to have any visitation and tried all kinds of crazy ideas. Jim took each one in stride, disproved them in court, and I actually ended up with more visitation that I started out asking for. My ex-wife went through 4 lawyers (all of which were higher priced than Jim) and Jim easily won every time we had to go to court. I owe him a ton of gratitude for taking on my case and representing me the way he did. If he's not your lawyer, you don't want to see him in the courtroom!

No one ever plans on getting divorced. It is one of the most traumatic events in a person's life, especially when you don't see it coming. As the sole provider in the family the financial fears and uncertainties associated with my divorce where overwhelming. James Kramer not only handled my divorce in a professional and caring manner, he and his staff were a source of support at a time when I needed to hear "it's going to be ok". James kept me focused on the realities of the situation, and perfectly executed a plan that resulted in a fair and appropriate settlement. His special attention and positive results with regards to my custodial desires and financial future was a life saver. I can't thank him (and Barb) enough for the wonderful job they did in helping me not only get through this most terrible of times, but for getting me to the other side solid as a rock!!!

Jim is a phenomenal attorney and a great person. He guided me all throughout my divorce process and has been a key figure in creating and maintaining my new life.
Had I gone with a different attorney, there is no doubt in my mind that my life, and the lives of my children would not have turned out as well as they have.

James Kramer can do in one hour what 3 attorneys can't do in 10. If you need a family law attorney and were led to Kramer, Stop Looking! He is calm, a total expert in family law, and will get the job done In court. If you want the best, call Jim Kramer. I am so glad that I did..

Finally, an attorney that focuses on Men's rights! Jim is great. He handled my case expertly. My ex hired 3 separate attorney's because Jim made each, in turn, look like amateurs. If the court system would have let him handle things as he saw fit we would have wrapped my case up quickly. Alas it still took a year or more to get in front of the Judge. By the time we left the courtroom I had more than i asked for. I couldn't be happier with Jim.

Jim was a great attorney to work with, due to his professionalism, knowledge and hard work I got a lot more time and additional awards for my daughter during my child custody case. Jim set our case out in rational and professional manner, the Judge agreed with Jim's agrument and allowed me to claim my daughter as a dependent which was very important to me because it enabled my daughter to remain in the only home she has ever known. I would highly recommend Jim to any parent who cares about their children, he clearly showed me that he does and because of him I now have an excellent relationship with my daughter which I am eternally grateful for.

Jim Kramer took over my case from an attorney that had managed to have me in more trouble than when the case began. Jim Kramer was decisive, confident and knew the law. He fought for me like he he was part of my family. He seemed to truly care about me and what was happening to me. He was easy to reach and always kept me informed as to what was going on. My case was not your standard divorce, in and out. We actually had a trial that lasted 3 days. Jim called our witnesses and properly asked the questions so the other sides objections were over ruled. He was fully prepared and we were never caught by any surprises.
Jim has become a friend, and I would recommend him to anyone. This country could use more attorneys like him. On top of everything else, his fee's were more reasonable than other attorney's. If you want an attorney that will fight for your cause, Jim is your guy.

Bottom Line Up Front: I highly recommend James R. Kramer as your attorney in your divorce.
When it was time for me to find a divorce lawyer, I looked for one that strictly had a man’s interest at heart and mind. I found that and more in James R. Kramer.
As many of us know first-hand, the divorce process is far from pleasant. Knowing you have an attorney that has your rights solely in mind is a comforting feeling.
When I had my first consultation with Jim, I knew he was the right person. He took the time to layout the divorce process and our goals. I also found out he was a straight shooter who requires his clients to put their big boy pants on and play an active role in their divorce as a team member in the process.
Playing an active role and working hard was crucial in my fight for the best possible outcome during my divorce. Rest assured the spouse you are divorcing is working overtime trying to take your children, money and property.
Jim provided sound advice and recommendations for an unofficial time-share which was eventually accepted as a temporary and then final agreement by my ex. He was always accessible when I had issues with my ex taking the liberty of violating the agreement.
During the divorce, Jim didn’t sit back waiting for my ex and her attorney to decide what to do. He was proactive in attempting to resolve the divorce in the shortest time and least costly way possible. He made solid recommendations for a quick settlement and to keep the process moving. He wasted no time filing the paperwork for hearings and mediation to insure stalling was not an option for the ex. We did our research, we were prepared and we achieved our goals.
Jim was always reassuring during my office visits on my road to liberation. I’m happy to say he was right, and I’m now able to move past the divorce and on to the next phase in life with my children.
Thank you Jim! You looked out for me, you guided me and you were a great team leader.

A very professional matter-of-fact gentleman and friendly individual.
I had consulted other counselors on my prospects and their prognosis was very ominous; apparently not well informed on the subject matter.
Mr. Kramer capably projected his skills, presented me a fresh positive outlook, which he implemented admirably and put me in a better bargaining position with excellent ethical and budget-friendly results.

Jim Kramer helped me immensely in round two with my ex in court. His advice for me and how to handle information management with my children was invaluable. The results could not have been better. There's nothing like having a former Marine Annapolis graduate attorney working for you when you have children in a divorce. Particularly one who has fought his own battles. Hire him. You won't regret it!
