I found James Drake when I was going through a very difficult time in my life with family affairs. He was knowledgeable, trustworthy, very helpful, and unlike many of his peers. I spoke with two (2) other attorneys prior to contacting James, and they were more concerned about money and less about the facts of my case and my well-being. However, when I spoke with James Drake for the first time the differences were stark in comparison. James showed legitimate concern for my situation. He was knowledgeable, astute, and realistic. He is not a 'pie in the sky' type of guy! My case was very complicated and James represented me for three (3) years. With GOD's help and his help, miraculously my child's life and my life are now much better than it was in the past, and all of my legal problems have been resolved. I thank GOD for helping me to find James! I highly recommend James Drake to anybody who is looking for a conscientious, honest, and reputable attorney. You would not be disappointed.

I found myself having to deal with some post-judgement issues with ex and child support. After first meeting, felt i was in good hands, Mr. Drake didn't give me false hopes and gave me a realistic analysis and expectations of what I was faced with and what he could do. Reasonable retainer and he kept me in the loop every step of the way, He looked at the issues from every angle and was impressed by his attention to even the smallest detail when it came to our day in court. I had a positive outcome and I attribute it to his skill as an attorney.

From my very first phone call with James, I trusted him. He is starkly different than any other lawyer with whom I have had legal dealings. I first reached out to James when I needed help navigating a family custody issue. When I asked James a few general questions about my circumstance, he personally responded with specific answers to my questions. Moreover, he demonstrated a personal investment in my case by asking thought-provoking questions regarding the details surrounding my case. Since our initial consultation, I continue to consult James E. Drake for advice on all things legal. While I acknowledge James’ legal specialization, I usually do not proceed with any legal decisions without his input on matters for one simple reason: when dealing with James E Drake, there is no such thing as “bad council.” Honest to God, James has never misled me or lied to me. He does not present his clients with a false sense of knowledge; therefore his clients do not develop a false sense of confidence. James is smart. James is honest. James is driven. I will forever use James E. Drake as my legal representative and I will continually refer all family members and friends to his care.

I was terrified at the thought of having to go to court. I was unprepared and unaware of what to expect. Not only did James Drake reassure my confidence in my case he took me step by step on the process of how everything was done so I wasn't scared of any unexpected surprises. He helped me accomplish my goals and stay focused on what was important. Without him I wouldn't have been able to achieve as much as I did. He took my case head on at a last minutes notice and I'm forever grateful. His prices were fair and well worth it. In this case I got more then I paid for. I would recommend James Drake to anyone I know who was having a legal family matter.

Did an outstanding job with my case. Even got better results than I had hoped for. Went out of his way to get the job done

Very informative and always kept me in the loop. I was never left wondering where we stood in my case and he went above and beyond to get the job done and to keep me calm in the process. I would recommend James Drake to everyone.
