James responded to a question I posted. I was able to reach him immediately from my first call. He spent a considerable amount of time consulting with me without hesitation. James was courteous, respectful, professional and extremely knowledgeable. He answered every question I asked directly with sincere detailed answers. After speaking with James, it was clear to me this was an attorney who truly cares about people. He worked promptly on what I needed, kept his word and demonstrated excellent communication. I reached out to 3 attorneys, James consulted with me and completed what I needed before even a return phone call from the other 2 attorneys. I know many others, including myself, who have had just mediocre or terrible experiences trying to reach and work with an attorney. James is genuine and willing to help no matter how small or large the need. He has integrity and does not overpromise and underdeliver. I did NOT hire James by default because he answered my call. He earned my trust and respect. I would not hesitate to hire James in the future and refer him to everyone I know or meet. Highly recommended!

Atty. James Frederick answered a question for me on Avvo and after several phone consultations, I hired him to assist with my father's small estate proceeding in Michigan. I don't live in Michigan, so my case needed special attention and constant contact at points. Over the course of 4 years (due to the nature of the case), Atty. Frederick was always available to me by phone, email, and also at one point readily agreed to travel 2 hours away to a hearing for the estate with minimal fuss. I was wary of handling the process remotely when my case started, but I can tell you that it was handled honestly, professionally, and for what I thought was a reasonable rate. If you are in the Livonia area (or anywhere in Michigan), and need any service that Atty. Frederick provides, you can not go wrong in at least speaking to him about it.

He handled our estate planning documents. Fees were reasonable. Knowledgeable and good people.

It was an absolute pleasure to collaborate with James on our estate plans. He was exceedingly responsive, detailed, and patient. James explained the documents in plain terms, and he answered our questions in great detail. He presented options for us to choose throughout the process but never pressured us one way or the other. He worked efficiently, often returning revisions to us within hours of our correspondence. James made the estate planning process pleasant, and our documents accurately reflect our exact wishes. We highly recommend James and plan to seek his services in the future.

James is truly a decent caring Christian attorney! He spent much time to consult me without charging me. That's quite unusual. It demonstrates that he is really out there helping people, not just making money. if anyone need legal help. I strongly recommend go to James.

I had a somewhat complex situation dealing with my mothers estate, but Mr Frederick took the time to answer several questions online and even accepted my phone call to give me more details on how I should approach the issues. Dealing with documents and assets that aren't' up to date can create a headache for anyone. Mr Frederick has helped with my questions on several occasions here and should i need to hire an attorney I would definitely seek him out first.

James was very responsive and very helpful. He seems very knowledgeable. Navigating the legal system can be very overwhelming and having access to people like James is invaluable.

I consulted with James during a several month's long effort to get insight into my deceased mother's living trust. James provided excellent answers to my questions, which gave me insight into details of trust law that helped me put my mother's passing into correct perspective. A will is just that, an expression of someone's intentions after their life has ended. Many of the details of how trusts function that James shared with me proved to be invaluable to my gaining understanding and, thus, closure. I highly recommend James Frederick to anyone who, like me, is seeking answers about an area of the law most of us seldom deal with. I am confident in recommending James to those seeking legal help. They will find themselves well served and gain a professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate advocate.

I would highly recommend Attorney Frederick to anyone who needs a compassionate and fair attorney who follows the probate law to the letter and gives sound advice. He helped ease my mind when I had questions regarding how probate would work with my parents' estate and advised me of different situations that could affect the outcome - things I didn't know before speaking with him. I can't recommend him highly enough - he really put my mind at ease and thoroughly answered all my questions.

Extremely helpful. Went above and beyond. Spent a lot of time explaining my situation and gave me excellent advise. Will hire in the future.

Within a half hour I received a straight forward, to the point answer to a question I was terribly upset over. The relief at his answer was overwhelming for me. I am now relaxed and happy that he took the time to reassure me I was not legally doing the wrong thing concerning a family member. Thank you.

Mr. Frederick was awesome. He treated me better on line,responding to my questions, in a short period of time. So very different from the disrespectful, inhumane treatment I received from my retained attorney the past 18 months. I sing his praise us and will send many referrals his way. Hopefully I will never need another attorney but I would retain him hands down immediately.
