James Winkler is currently representing me in a divorce after a very long marriage that ended when my husband abandoned me emotionally and financially. The settlement papers are signed and we are waiting for the final decree. Mr. Winkler is my second attorney. The first attorney didn't return any of my telephone calls, refused to meet with me before a 4 way meeting , and let me walk into the meeting scared and unprepared. Things changed as soon as I retained James Winkler. He was kind, supportive and realistic. He advised me of my options and we discussed each of them in detail. I never felt rushed or demeaned or that I was an annoyance, as I felt with my first attorney. He LISTENED to me. He answered every phone call and email from me, and there were a lot of them. He went to court and fought for me and got me an order for temporary relief when my husband refused to pay anything towards the marital bills. He was very professional in court and in the meetings with my husband's attorney. He is an expert in the field and it clearly shows. Most important- he talked to me about the bottom line- when it made sense to fight and when it made sense to settle. Because of this attorney, I have my house and my 401k. Money is a big issue now as I am suddenly self supporting and, under the circumstances (divorce is expensive!), the fees were fair and reasonable. In this very trying and emotional time in my life, I feel very supported by this attorney and this firm and I am very very thankful that I found them.
